Why should I get a Profile roaster, which comes with ADR?
The discontinued Sonofresco Flagship coffee roaster utilized a single roast profile and ten pre-set end roast levels. Adding the Advanced Definition Software (ADR) expands the capability of the roaster by allowing user definition and creation of custom profiles unique to you. Adding the ADR software expands the capability of the roaster by allowing user definition of these ten individual endpoints for each custom profile created. The ADR software is compatible with PC or Mac

Sonofresco Coffee Roaster is an affordable work horse, producing up to 56 lbs. of roasted coffee per 8-hour day. With twice the roasting capacity of the 1-lb roaster, you can double your productivity without doubling your price. Coffee beans roasted in a Sonofresco roaster are comparable to the best commercial drum roasters on the market, at a fraction of the price. With a Sonofresco roaster you will easily roast the freshest coffee in the industry – you and your customers will taste the difference.

Complimentary Free Coffee: We will send, at no extra cost, three packages (six pounds each, 18 pounds total) of very-high-quality Bolivia, Brazil, Burundi, Colombian & Costa Rican specialty green coffee beans to get you started on roasting, as soon as you open the box! These beans are 100% Arabica. Since we are coffee importers all our coffees come from bagged-at-origin GrainPro® bags.

For international orders, we will gladly send the 18 lbs via International Priority Mail for $ 60, shipping charge. If you have a preference for any of our coffees, let us know. Otherwise we will send our favorite choices.
Special Deal: We will take $500 off of the price of the roaster if you agree to buy from us, over the next 12 months, 792 lbs. of green (un-roasted) coffee at our regular, low, wholesale prices. You are required to purchase 66 lbs. of coffee with your roaster. We will ship additional 66 lbs. of coffee (any grade or variety that you select) at the beginning of the month. We only require that you give us a credit card so that we can charge the corresponding amount as we ship. Of course, you are welcome to buy more green coffee from us. But 66 lbs. of roasted coffee a month, though low volume, is enough to get you started with your roasted coffee business. Now that is a deal!
If you order online, type the code "SonoDeal" in the field asking if you have a coupon or discount code. If for whatever reason you do not want to continue receiving green coffee from us, the cost of early contract termination is $500.

In our opinion, and based on our own experience, the American-made Sonofresco is the best, easiest-to-use small-batch, commercial coffee roaster available in the market today. You can roast from Cinnamon (light brown) to Very Dark (French Roast), even you preferred espresso blend. This is a continuous-use, commercial-grade machine.
It is intended for the small to medium size coffee house or the boutique custom roaster. It uses home-heating, gas furnace technology and hence it is quite safe and dependable. It also has a microprocessor to control the roaster profile and to allow manual, digital adjustments for roasting levels. It requires minimal training and can be used by any employee, right out of the box!
The two-pounder version doubles your roasted coffee production using the same simple, proven and reliable technology. All roaster parts are exactly the same, except the roasting chamber, the temperature sensor and the chaff collector, and replacement parts can be used interchangeably between the two versions.
It only weighs 75 lbs. and can be easily transported to coffee carts, trade shows, demonstration events, farmer markets, mobile units or any other event that would appreciate fresh-roasted coffee. Because it uses the fluid-bed roasting principle, the roasting chamber is made out of glass and allows visual inspection of the roasting beans. It generates sufficient roasting aroma and "show" to attract customers and amazed coffee drinkers. It is designed to be used up-front, on a counter top, in plain view of customers and by passers by. In fact, the sight and aroma of the roaster working adds to customer traffic and becomes a memorable experience.
This a brand new, electrical and propane (or natural gas) UL-listed, heavy-duty, commercial coffee roaster. It is fully-warranted by the manufacturer (1-year). It includes the User's Manual (with color pictures), and detailed roasting instructions. The unit measures (30" tall, 22" deep, and 13" wide. Shipping weight is about 95 pounds.
Because of its relative small roasting capacity (compared to other commercial roasters) it does not require an afterburner, but it produces smoke (especially on dark roasts) and requires ventilation if used indoors. We sell an optional, very attractive, color coordinated venting hood, but any kitchen hood with a good vent will also do. It is very important to empty and clean the chaff collector after every roast. Regular maintenance includes washing (with dish washer soap) and scrubbing the roasting chamber, chaff collector, screen and heat sensor every 100 roasts or so.
