OFFICINE VITTORIA 30kg coffee roaster

Description

This Officine Vittoria 30Kg is a very hard to find excellent roasting machine.
Who knows the business knows that Officine Vittoria along with Trabattoni, Petroncini and Sta Impianti is the gem of coffee roasters.
It was built in the 70's and 80's when craftmanship and good quality material were not saved. It features a body of cast iron to have a uniform heat and consequently roast all over the roaster.
The main characteristic that sets Officine Vittoria apart from all the others is their perforated drum and convection heating system.
The burner, and therefore the flame, is located outside of the roaster having just the heat “caresses” the bean during the roasting process and due to the perforated drum the heat is very even all over the drum.
This method gives you a perfect, uniform, well coked roast without scorching the beans, problem that all the other heated drum with the flame directly under it will cause a scorching of the bean providing bitterness to the bean.
This machine was in operation until 5 years ago when it was then pulled out, cleaned, greased, changed some parts and bearing....was not fully refurbished but was refurbished on the parts wearer out.
The roaster comes complete with green coffee loader, chaff collector, destoner and afterburner.
It was running at natural gas with 220V power. Some wiring and extra pipe might be required depending on customer needs.
The Roaster is now in storage and can be inspected by the buyer but can’t be hooked up to gas or power since no longer used and assembled.
