Kuban Supreme 1.8kg Manual Coffee Roaster
About the Brand
Kuban Coffee Roasters has been building roasting equipment in Bornova, İzmir, Turkey since 1996 — nearly three decades spent refining drum roasters, grinders and bean silos for the global coffee trade. The company now exports to more than 60 countries and supports over 5,000 customers, from micro-roasteries and training labs to industrial roasting operations. It's engineering depth rather than marketing gloss — the kind of pedigree that shows in the detail.
The Product
The Kuban Supreme 1.8kg is a fully manual drum roaster sized for micro-batch work — small enough for single-origin experimentation, precise enough for repeatable café-grade profiles. It's designed for roasters who want their hands on the flame, airflow and drum speed themselves, with the option to add PLC touchscreen control and profile-tracking software later. Compact, polished, and unmistakably built for people who take small-batch roasting seriously.
Key Features
Micro-Batch Sizing (Precision at Small Scale)
Roast up to 1.8kg per batch (approx. 7.2kg/hour), ideal for delicate single-origin work or small-batch experimentation.
Manual to Software — Your Choice (Grows With You)
Run it as a true hands-on manual roaster, or upgrade to PLC control with a Siemens touchscreen. The included Kuban Roast Manager software integrates with Cropster or Artisan for profile tracking and consistency.
Fine Flame & Airflow Control (Repeatable Roasts)
A proportional burner adjusts gradually for consistency, while volumetric airflow and an adjustable 30–70 RPM drum speed let you craft slow, development-focused roasts or faster, darker profiles.
Even Heat & Quiet Operation (Engineered Into the Drum)
High-grade drum insulation, redesigned internal blades and 55% "emptiness" ensure uniform roasting with minimal noise.
Smart Cooling & Build Quality (Made to Last)
Four motors drive the roasting and cooling fans while a cyclone-style chaff collector keeps the roast space clean — all built from durable, high-temperature materials.
Who It's Built For
You're a micro-roastery or café exploring small-batch, specialty offerings, or a training lab that needs tight batch sizes with repeatable profiles. If you want hands-on flame control today with the option of software-driven data logging tomorrow, the Supreme 1.8 gives you both — café-grade flexibility in a compact, elegant footprint.
