About Loring Roasters

Browse used Loring roasters for sale, including the S7 Nighthawk, S15 Falcon, S35 Kestrel, and S70 Peregrine. Every model on this page runs Loring's Smart Roast single burner system, which roasts the batch and clears the smoke with one flame instead of a separate afterburner. Batch sizes span from 1.4 kg sample runs up to a full 70 kg bag, so a growing specialty shop and a production roastery can both find a fit here. Comparing brands? Our full used coffee roasters collection covers everything else in stock.

Why Roasters Choose a Loring Smart Roast System

Loring builds every roaster around one idea: a single burner that heats the beans and burns off the roasting smoke at the same time. Traditional drum roasters need a separate afterburner for that second job, which means more fuel, more moving parts, and more to maintain. Loring's single burner design is the reason the brand is known for lower running costs alongside a touchscreen that saves and repeats roast profiles automatically.

Loring reports up to 80% lower fuel use per roast compared to conventional roasters running an afterburner, though real world savings depend on batch size, roasting hours, and local gas rates. Every model also ships with the same automated controls, including auto hopper loading, auto discharge, and a high speed cooling tray, so the workflow stays the same whether you run a compact S7 or a full size S70.

Loring Roaster Models by Batch Size

  • S7 Nighthawk (1.4 to 7 kg): The smallest Smart Roast model, sized for a shop roasting on site or a specialty operation moving up from a sample roaster.
  • S15 Falcon (3 to 15 kg): A common step up for growing roasteries that need daily production without the footprint of a full commercial line.
  • S35 Kestrel (7 to 35 kg): Loring's half bag model, built for wholesale accounts and multi cafe roasteries running several batches a day.
  • S70 Peregrine (14 to 70 kg): The full bag production model, suited to established roasteries with steady, high volume output.

FAQs

What sizes does Loring make?

+

Loring's Smart Roast lineup runs from the S7 Nighthawk (1.4 to 7 kg) up through the S15 Falcon, S35 Kestrel, and S70 Peregrine (14 to 70 kg), so batch size scales from a single cafe to full production runs.

What makes a Loring roaster different from a traditional drum roaster?

+

A Loring uses one burner to both roast the batch and burn off the smoke, so there's no separate afterburner to run, maintain, or vent. Most other drum roasters need that second unit for smoke control.

Do Loring roasters really save on fuel?

+

Loring reports up to 80% lower fuel use compared to a roaster paired with an afterburner. Real world savings vary with batch size and how many hours a week you roast, so treat that figure as a ceiling rather than a guarantee.

Which Loring model fits a growing specialty roastery?

+

The S15 Falcon is the most common step up for roasteries moving past a sample or entry size machine, since it holds a full daily production batch without the space needs of an S35 or S70.

Can I finance a used Loring roaster?

+

Yes. CoffeeTec offers financing options for used roasting equipment, so you can spread the cost of a Loring purchase instead of paying the full price upfront. Contact our team to see what payment plan fits your roastery.
