Roasting in Hot ​Airflow

Traditional drum roasting equipment might come in surface contact with and damage cacao beans, degrading the final chocolate flavor. With the Typhoon cocoa bean roasting machine, cacao beans are only surrounded by hot air which permeates to the bean’s core. This process proves a trustworthy chocolate roasting tool for roasters while increasing efficiency as well. Roasting with airflow avoids damage to cacao husks to produce the clean, consistent taste customers expect from modern chocolatiers in the bean-to-bar niche.

Absolute control over the process

The taste, flavor, and color of any roasted product crucially depends on the maintenance of the profile during roasting. A roastmaster must select parameters to develop the individual taste and flavor descriptors to each coffee’s special sort and origin. The Typhoon Profile System 3.0 facilitates the creation and storage of professional profiles with specialized controls including touch-screen panels to set your system.

What our clients say about Typhoon Roasters

Scarab Coffee
UAE

Based in Dubai, Scarab Coffee blends tradition with innovation, inspired by the scarab’s symbolism of transformation. With a focus on quality and sustainability, they source beans directly and lead regional innovation through their Scarab Innovation Hub.

Traditional drum roasters posed challenges—uneven roasts, high energy use, and constant adjustments. Typhoon’s convection technology brought consistency, efficiency, and up to 50% energy savings, perfectly aligning with our values.

Adopting Typhoon streamlined our roasting process, enhanced flavor clarity, and doubled our output. It’s been a game-changer in quality, sustainability, and growth.

«‎Typhoon elevated everything—from cup quality to eco-efficiency. We couldn’t be happier.»‎.

I have a vision of making coffee culture in Germany more sustainable, and that’s why I chose Typhoon 5. It operates on electricity, which I source from my own rooftop solar panels, ensuring that every cup I roast is as eco-friendly as possible. This aligns perfectly with my commitment to sustainability. Since I started using the machine, I’ve been impressed by how well it works and how consistent the roasts are. The coffee it produces is of exceptionally high quality, with no defects. I’m thrilled with the performance and the results. It truly supports my mission for a greener future, and I couldn’t be happier with my choice. I’m also really happy with how I’ve been working with the manufacturer. The team is so friendly and approachable, and it truly makes working with them a pleasure.

I am very satisfied with the Typhoon Fluid Bed. Satisfaction is proved by the fact that I already have a second roasting machine from this company. The controllability of the machine and the even roasting of the coffee is now really fun. The customization of the roaster is the icing on the cake. Great machine and always a pleasure to use it!

Josef Novacek, owner
Mohaji Roastery
Czech Republic

We have been working with Typhoon Roaster for over four years now and we can’t praise it enough. We own a 10kg hybrid version on electricity. It roasts evenly, consistently and fairly quickly. I also like the wide variance of roasting

While it’s not entirely easy and takes a while to get the hang of it, you can roast even 2kg samples on it though of course a full 10kg batch is usually more ideal. The roaster has a fine design and groundbreaking technology that is easily distinguishable from the competition. The service and advice is also of a very good standard and the company tries to be as helpful as possible.

David Panek, owner
Skeiced
Germany

For me, coffee is a speciality, and I wanted to implement a new approach towards coffee making and roasting. I started by looking for an economically sustainable roaster to meet my requirements to be implemented in a mobile setting, to present to my clients the process of making coffee and making my company transparent

The mobile installation in a truck was easily possible with Typhoon, and the team helped me with all requirements necessary. After the production and the roaster arrived, I was amazed by the quality of the roaster. After installation, the training with Alex helped to find out how to best roast with the Typhoon and experience the possible modes. I am super happy with the roast results, the completeness of the roasted pictures, the same roast degree for every bean, and the incredible taste! I am so pleased to roast with a Typhoon roaster.

With Typhoon 5kg Roaster we have managed to make coffee roasting more touchable for the public in Norway. Many people visit us during the roasting sessions, get an introduction to the process and watch delightful coffee get roasted in minutes in front of their eyes. We love our roaster and the joy it creates among our customers.

 
Hussam Ahmad, owner
Roastery 29
Romania

From roasting 80kg per month in the first three months, we’ve grown to roasting approximately 500kg a month in just one year.

We truly love the consistency of the batches we roast and the intuitive software.

The only downside we’ve experienced is that the 2.5kg capacity can sometimes feel too small for our growing needs. However, we’re working on it, and upgrading to the 5kg roaster is the next big step for our roastery.

Heating the roaster takes only 30 minutes, which is a huge plus for efficiency.

Additionally, the between-batch protocol is incredibly fast, keeping our workflow smooth and productive.

8 Reasons to Switch to
Convection Roasting Today

Stability

Convection roasters maintain consistent performance, regardless of external conditions like ambient temperature or humidity. Instead of pulling in room air, they circulate and reheat internal airflow to create a stable roasting environment. A built-in thermal insulation layer shields the machine from environmental fluctuations, ensuring steady results throughout the day.

Unlike conduction roasters, convection systems don’t build up excess heat over time, so there’s no need to constantly adjust your roasting profiles during long production runs

Consistency

Convection roasters make it easy to replicate roast profiles, both manually and automatically. They respond instantly to input changes without delays from metal inertia, giving you precise control throughout the process. With energy transferred directly to the beans, you get stable heat and minimal variation at the most critical points of the roast

Defect-Free Roasting

Convection roasting eliminates common defects caused by overheated metal surfaces. Unlike traditional systems, the stainless steel components in Typhoon roasters don’t retain excess heat and cool down quickly. An active layer of hot air separates the beans from direct metal contact, reducing the risk of scorching and ensuring an even, consistent roast every time

Even Roasting

Fluid bed technology in convection roasters delivers consistently even results by distributing the beans across a horizontal surface and moving them with controlled airflow. This design prevents prolonged contact with hot metal surfaces, unlike traditional drum roasters that rely on mechanical paddles. The result is a uniform roast with reduced risk of scorching or uneven development

Better Technology for Espresso Roasting

Convection roasting offers clear advantages for espresso, especially with medium to dark roasts. It produces a dense, full-bodied cup with enhanced sweetness by gently caramelizing the coffee’s natural sugars. Thanks to consistent heat distribution, convection roasters ensure the uniformity that’s essential for the short, intense extraction process of espresso brewing

Pure and Sweet Taste for Light Roasts

Convection roasting brings out the natural sweetness and clarity of light roasts, especially in naturally processed beans. The result is a clean, fruity cup with well-defined flavor notes. Even heat distribution and the absence of roasting defects allow the coffee’s true character to shine through

Enhances the Flavor of Fine Commercial Cocoa

Convection roasters bring out the best in fine commercial coffee by gently caramelizing sugars and highlighting natural sweetness. They reduce the risk of defects and prevent over-roasting, resulting in consistently even roasts with rich, smooth flavor — especially ideal for medium to dark profiles

Twice the Productivity

Convection roasters can process up to 6 batches per hour, nearly double the output of traditional conduction roasters. With average roast cycles of just 8 to 15 minutes, they operate 30 to 40 percent faster. Because heat is evenly applied across the entire surface of each bean, and no downtime is needed between batches, you can load to full capacity without sacrificing quality
