Why Buy a Dongyi Roaster From CoffeeTec
Dongyi is manufactured by Nanyang Dongyi Machinery, one of the longer-running Chinese roaster builders, and the same machines are also marketed under the Yoshan name in the US and Canada. Roasters who write about Dongyi and Yoshan machines online tend to describe them as unassuming, reliable workhorses, especially given the price point compared to premium Western brands. Every used Dongyi roaster listed at CoffeeTec is checked for mechanical condition before it goes live, so you get the value of a budget import without buying blind.
Dongyi Roaster Sizes and Types
Dongyi builds roasters from small 1kg sample units up through large 300kg production drums, in both gas and electric configurations. Most of what shows up on the used market falls in the small-to-mid-size range, a good fit for a first roasting business or a cafe adding in-house roasting. If you specifically want a compact machine, our small batch roasters (1-4 kg) collection covers this size range across every brand we carry, and our electric roasters collection is worth a look if you want to skip a gas line altogether.
