Sandgate's Loring Coffee Roaster
At Sandgate Coffee, we’re all about consistency. That’s why we use the Loring S35 Kestrel coffee roaster—an American-made machine renowned for its precision and efficiency. Our head roaster, trained on the Loring S70, ensures that every batch of Sandgate Coffee meets our high standards.
What Makes Loring Different?
Loring roasters use convection to transfer heat, with rotating paddles in the drum that evenly mix the beans. This system keeps the drum from directly touching the heat source, preventing unwanted heat transfer from conduction or radiation—something traditional drum roasters can’t achieve. Plus, with a built-in afterburner to eliminate smoke, Loring roasts in a cleaner, eco-friendly way, reducing emissions while maintaining top-notch coffee quality.
The Advantages of Loring
Why do we choose Loring? Here’s why:
- Sustainability: Loring’s convection roasting and air recirculation system can cut gas usage and CO2 emissions by up to 70%.
- Consistent Quality: With precise control over roast profiles, Loring ensures every batch delivers the same great taste.
- Real-Time Data: Loring’s tech lets us monitor and adjust the roast profile as we go, tweaking temperature, airflow, and time for consistent results.
Why It Matters
