Coffee Roaster CMS-12 | 12kg Gas Roaster - Automatic
Description:
Automatic Control for Repeatable Production Roasting
The CMS-12 Automatic is a 4–12 kg gas coffee roaster designed for growing roasteries that need greater production capacity and more repeatable execution of established roasting recipes.
Its touchscreen control system and electric actuators manage burner power, airflow and drum speed according to saved settings. The operator can monitor the roast in real time and switch to manual control whenever adjustments are required.
This approach improves the consistency of machine settings between batches while keeping the roaster in control of the process.
Recipe-Based Automation
- Save, edit and recall roasting recipes.
- Automatically reproduce burner, airflow and drum-speed settings.
- Monitor Bean Temperature, Exhaust Temperature and drum pressure in real time.
- Adjust key parameters manually during the roast when required.
Independent Drive System
- Four independent motors support simultaneous roasting and cooling.
- A new batch can begin while the previous batch is cooling.
- The double-wall drum combines low-carbon steel and cast iron.
- A cast-iron front plate supports stable thermal behaviour.
Configuration Before Ordering
The fuel type, electrical supply, exhaust installation and software workflow should be confirmed before placing an order. The CMS team will help match the machine configuration to the installation site and planned production.
- Available for propane, LPG or natural gas configurations.
- Artisan and Cropster functionality depends on the selected software setup.
- Maximum hourly output depends on batch size, roast duration and operating conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I switch between automatic and manual roasting?
Yes. The CMS-12 Automatic can follow a saved roasting recipe while allowing the operator to adjust key parameters manually during the roast.
What do the electric actuators control?
The electric actuators control burner power, airflow and drum speed. Their digital positioning allows saved settings to be reproduced more consistently than with manually positioned mechanical controls.
Does automation guarantee identical results?
Automation improves the repeatability of machine settings and recipe execution. The final roast result can still be affected by the green coffee, environmental conditions, machine preparation and other production variables.
Can the CMS-12 Automatic work with Artisan and Cropster?
The machine supports integration with Artisan and Cropster for roast logging and profile-based workflows. The available control functions and connection method should be confirmed for the selected software configuration.
Is 50 kg/hour the standard production output?
It is the stated maximum output. Actual hourly production depends on batch size, roast duration, cooling time and the operating workflow used by the roastery.
Final fuel, electrical, exhaust and software requirements must be confirmed before ordering.
