35kg (75-lb.) Used Coffee Roaster - San Franciscan SF-75

2016 Model — Includes Afterburner, Bean Cart, and Connecting Ducting

BASICS | SPECS | CRATE & FREIGHT

Big roaster energy! This 2016 35kg/75-lb San Franciscan SF-75 used coffee roaster is a seasoned, dependable production machine that spent 10 years doing exactly what it was built to do—roast beautifully, consistently, and without drama. Zero fires, virtually no downtime (never more than a day), and happiest at 45–50 lb batches, with its absolute sweet spot around 65% capacity, where it produced stellar light roasts.

Used in a steady rhythm (15–20 roasts/day, 4 days/week) and regularly maintained by the original owner. Natural gas, 220V single phase. Manual controls for roastmasters who like to stay hands-on, with Cropster/Artisan compatibility.

Includes combination chaff collector/afterburner, bean cart, and 6–10 ft dual-walled ducting/chimney. Decommissioned after an upgrade to higher-volume equipment. Last roasted January 2026.

NOTE: Seller reports the afterburner will need a new igniter.

This used commercial coffee roaster for sale is ready to plug in, fire up, and get back to making coffee magic.

A Robust, Beautiful, and Environmentally Friendly Drum Coffee Roaster

(From San Franciscan Roasters)

The SF-75 is built for the artisan roaster. It features independent, 3-phase motors with variable speed capability controls on drum drive and hot air for those who desire precise control over conductive/convective heat transfer.

In order to reduce environmental impact, the SF-75 features an energy-saving afterburner with modulating controls which clean both hot and cool air.

As a continuous batch roaster, the SF-75 roasts and cools at the same time. For this reason, the SF-75 can do four roasts per hour (300 lbs). Roasting time is 13 to 15 minutes.

The hot and cooling air vent, afterburner, and cyclone-chaff collector can be modified to suit low ceilings.

Frequently Asked Buyer Questions

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.
