2 Ton Roaster

The 2 Ton Roaster is a compact, fully automated roasting system built for smaller dairy farms feeding around 200 to 800 cows. With a capacity of up to 4,000 lbs. of soybeans per day, it delivers the same consistent roasting performance as the larger model—just in a smaller footprint. Designed for continuous 24/7 operation, this electric-powered system uses heated oil in a double-wall chamber to roast soybeans at approximately 375°F for one hour. The oil self-circulates due to the unit’s incline, keeping the temperature stable throughout the process. Beans then enter a steeping chamber for another 30 minutes of gentle heat, exiting at around 250°F to ensure even internal roasting.

After steeping, the beans are cooled for 15 minutes in a cooling hopper using ambient air, which brings them down to room temperature and helps preserve nutritional quality.

Once cooled, the beans are moved to an 18″ hammermill that grinds up to 5 tons per hour. It features reversible hammers, a quick-change screen, and an adjustable outlet angle, producing a consistent grind through a 1/4″ to 5/16″ screen.

The system runs from a simple touchscreen panel that controls all components and includes built-in safety features, timers, over-temp shutoffs, and fill sensors. Everything is pre-wired inside a 40′ shipping container—just connect your power, attach your fill auger, and install your discharge piping. You’re ready to roast!
