Classic 240kg Jabez-Burns 23R
Used Coffee Roaster and Cooler Set


They say the magic happens when everything comes together. That’s exactly the case with this remarkable roaster: a classic Jabez-Burns 23R “ACO” (Automatic Clean Out) used coffee roasting machine.

Sure, the individual parts look intriguing on their own, but when this roaster is fully assembled and fired up? You’re looking at a powerhouse built to deliver volume, consistency, and the kind of performance that makes a real difference in your roasting operation.

Why This Makes Sense For Your Roastery

  • Massive Output: With a reported batch capacity between 200–540 lbs. (90–240 kg) and the ability to roast 4–5 times per hour, this is what we call a “4-bagger.” That translates into as much as 2,500 lbs. (1,134 kg) per hour.

  • Legendary Build Quality: Probat-Burns has been the gold standard in coffee roasting for decades. From its robust construction to its smart engineering, this machine is made to last and to roast beautifully for years to come.

  • Efficient and Flexible: Fueled by natural gas and powered by 480v, this roaster currently operates with manual controls but can be upgraded to full automation if that suits your workflow.

  • Even, Consistent Roasts: Probat’s patented perforated drum technology provides superior heat transfer and ensures uniform roast development, giving you the consistency you need at scale.

  • Add-On Options: While this package doesn’t include an afterburner, we’ve got a 2007 Probat 1.5M thermal afterburner available at a discounted price — a perfect pairing for this setup.

The Story On This One

The current owner purchased this 23R ACO to keep pace with a busy roasting business. It’s been regularly maintained, with the seller reporting it in good condition and with normal signs of use. Fueled by natural gas and powered by 480v, it’s ready to be installed and get to work.

Now, the owner’s business model has shifted, and this giant is more machine than he needs. That’s good news for you: this Probat is fully prepped, standing by, and ready to bring high-capacity roasting power to its next home.

FAQ

Once a Used Elite equipment sale has transacted, what’s involved in relocating the equipment?

Once the seller confirms full payment has been received, CEPros will move on the previously scheduled equipment prep and engage the crating company and freight company. Or, if optioned, CEPros will facilitate a buyer pick-up.

CEPros requires crating companies to take photos of the equipment crating that are reviewed and approved by us before freight is scheduled.
This assures a safe equipment transport.

Once the crating photos have been approved, CEPros notifies the buyer the equipment is ready to ship and confirms the delivery address and buyer's schedule.

All shipments are insured and include an appointment delivery time that works with your schedule.

What communications can I expect when listing equipment to sell or after I purchase?

Our goal is to negotiate a quick and seamless transaction, and ongoing communication is key. We will stay in close contact with you every step of the way during your roasting equipment selling or buying process with CEPros. You will always know what the next step is. Our goal is for you to hear from us first, but if you ever have a question, just contact us. We're a quick phone call, text, or email away!

What is your 48-Hour Quick Pay Promise?

We offer every Used Elite Seller our 48-Hour QuickPay Promise. Meaning, the moment you transact your equipment purchase, we immediately process payment to the seller.

What this means to you is no distractions, no delays, and no excuses in getting your equipment to you. Because, at CEPros, we know that Roasters Need to Roast. And that means getting that piece of equipment to you and to work as quickly as possible.

Can I finance equipment other than a new roaster?

Yes! You can finance anything you purchase from CEPros, including our new ancillary and Used Elite equipment. You can even finance our Tek-Net service packages!

What is Equipment Bundling?

Coffee equipment bundling lets you combine ancillary coffee roasting equipment and/or a coffee roaster into a single package or offering, often at a discounted price. This can include items like destoners, grinders, K-cup fillers, and sealers. Bundling eliminates the need to shop for individual items separately, saving time and potentially reducing costs. Learn more about how you can save with equipment bundling and one-stop shopping.

When we set up your new or Used Elite coffee roaster to integrate seamlessly into your coffee roastery, you should see performance and profit gains quickly. You'll minimize training lag (eliminate learning curve with tech assistance), hit roasting quotas (achieve full production performance quickly), and increase profits (start producing coffee faster with less waste and minimal downtime).
