The SoyRoaster Model 14: Versatile Mid-Range Roasting

The Model 14 Roaster by A.N. Martin Systems is our versatile, fully automated roasting solution capable of processing up to 8,000 lbs. of soybeans per day. Engineered for reliable, continuous 24/7 operation, the Model 14 is the perfect fit for farms needing a balance of high output and efficiency.

Flexible Power Options: Electric or Propane

To match your farm’s infrastructure and energy costs, the Model 14 can be configured to run on either electric or propane heat. This flexibility allows you to choose the most economical and convenient power source for your operation.

Your Choice of Installation

We offer two distinct packages to get your Model 14 up and running:

1. Turnkey Container System: For a fast and simple setup, the entire system can be delivered pre-wired and fully installed in a shipping container. This “plug-and-play” option minimizes on-site work—just connect your power, fill auger, and discharge piping, and you are ready to roast.

2. DIY Component System: For maximum savings and customization, we can ship all the individual components of the Model 14 directly to you. This allows you to install the equipment in an existing barn, shed, or other structure. By handling the installation and wiring yourself, you can significantly reduce upfront costs and create a system that fits your exact layout.

The Roasting Process: Consistent Quality, Step by Step

The Model 14 ensures a perfect roast every time with its proven, multi-stage process.

• Roasting: Soybeans are cooked for 30 minutes at a consistent temperature of 250−280∘F. The system uses heated oil within a double-wall pipe, which naturally circulates due to the unit’s incline, guaranteeing an even roast without mechanical pumps.

• Steeping: After roasting, the beans rest in a steeping chamber for an additional 15 minutes. This allows the heat to fully penetrate the bean, resulting in a thoroughly cooked and highly digestible product.

• Cooling & Grinding: A powerful axial fan cools the beans to ambient temperature to preserve nutrition. They are then processed by an 18” hammermill that features reversible hammers and a quick-change screen, producing a consistent grind at up to 5 tons per hour.

Smart, Automated Control

The entire system is managed from an intuitive touchscreen panel. With built-in automation, safety sensors, timers, and over-temp shutoffs, the Model 14 is designed for safe and reliable “walk-away” operation.

More Than Just Soybeans

The Model 14 Roaster can also be used for other grains, although our testing has been limited. If you have a specific grain-roasting need, contact us! We are always looking to innovate and adapt our systems for the modern farmer.
