The commercial coffee roaster most important value add

If you are someone that is interested in commercial coffee roaster, then you are likely to be in the cafe or coffee business. The fact is, while most coffee shop owners would get the best and latest coffee machines, you seldom see coffee roaster there.

There is a reason for it. Most commercial coffee roasters take up to twenty minutes to roast a single batch of coffee beans, and if you would to serve a customer this batch of roasted beans which is really very fresh, I think they would have ran out of patience waiting for that cup of coffee.

Imagine you waited twenty minutes for the beans to be roasted, probably another 10 minutes for it to cool down, then grinding, and lastly brewing it. From the time you placed your order to finally drinking it, you would have waited up to 30 minutes for a single cup of coffee, which is a thing not many people is willing to do.

That is the reason why I say that if there is a single value add that designer of commercial coffee roaster should take note of, it would be the turn around time. The faster you are able to roast a batch of coffee beans, the better chance your roasters would be purchased by cafe owners.

One of the faster turn around time for a commercial coffee roaster that I have seen would be the surpramatic coffee roaster pro 1500. At some of their settings, from the time you sort the coffee beans to finishing the roast, it takes not more than 10 minutes.

Even if you add in the cooling, grinding and brewing process, the whole thing would not exceed twenty minutes. While twenty and thirty minutes is only ten minutes different, the whole perception of the whole scenario is huge. It is about the tens of minutes and a whole half an hour.

Personally, I think this pro 1500 is a good buy and if you have customers that really do not mind the wait, you should really roast your own coffee beans. The impression that roasting your own beans gives is an added service that they would not find in other cafes, not even starbucks, which can be your competitive advantage.

On top of this, you would be glad to know that if you would to roast your own coffee beans, your cost would go down by as much as 50% on the coffee beans. No matter what is the initial cost of your commercial coffee roaster, within a few months you would be able enjoy some cost savings.

There you have it folks, my take at a value add of commercial coffee roaster and also some reasons why if you are running a cafe you should own one of these.
