The Petroncini’s Specialty Roasters, the new model TT 5/10 from 3 to 10 kg per batch
World of Coffee 2022 will be the perfect opportunity to talk about the technology and new design of IMA Coffee Petroncini’s Specialty Roasters. A new model of Specialty Roaster TT 5/10, the Petroncini roasting machine that roasts from 3 to 10 kg per batch, is set to go on display at World of Coffee in Milan. Compact and easy to install, thanks to its single-phase power system, the new TT5/10 has been designed for small specialty roasteries and for coffee research and training centres. From now on equipped with a new user-friendly HMI panel for a more flexible process management.
The long-lasting classic style at the World of Coffee 2022
The innovation applied to these machines over the years has in no way affected the quality of the materials and the robustness of the original product, but instead has set out to put the master roaster at the centre of the process, making him increasingly aware of the technology and giving him all the tools necessary to personalise his quality roasting profile in the way he prefers.
Thanks to heat control, roasting air volume and the drum rotation speed, this roasting machine can in fact let you vary the method of transferring heat to the bean, achieving a perfect balance between convection and conduction, according to the desired end product. They can thus succeed in achieving countless sensory profiles, developing the coffee’s deepest aromas, from light roasting to the very darkest.
The TT5/10 is actually equipped with two independent suction systems, one for roasting and one for cooling, so that the two phases can be carried out simultaneously and in full capacity between one batch and another, without neglecting the cooling phase.
Another plus of these small but strong roasters is the very heart of roasting, namely the way in which the heat is transferred to the coffee beans. The thermal energy cycle adopted by the Specialty Roasters allows for the direct and gentle drying and caramelisation of the coffee sugars, putting the source of heat not in direct contact with the roasting chamber, in order to be able to control the amount of heat transferred to the bean and reduce uncontrollable thermal inertia as much as possible. Having good thermal insulation of the external surfaces is an added value which these machines have been able to boast for almost 100 years now. The Specialty Roasters thus offer a “soft” roasting profile which allows for even heat distribution to the beans, taking care of the raw materials so as to achieve high quality aromatic profiles.
MAESTRO has been created for operations
MAESTRO is the roasting software applied to the Specialty Roasters, available in the Classic as well as Avantgarde version, thus giving the roast master the chance to choose either the complete freedom of roasting or the pre-setting the different desired roasting profiles. The system enables to save and export the roasting data, organising them later as preferred. In the new MAESTRO version, the management of the roasting process is more flexible and intuitive, with the guarantee of the total replicability of the roasting profiles.
Many innovations for the world of packaging will be presented, starting from the new solutions for vertical packaging, to capsule filling machines specially designed for specialty coffees, up to new projects for sustainable packaging. Among the new leading technologies of IMA Coffee Packaging, the SR SMART Series, capsule filling and sealing machine, and the C-900, high speed capsule cartoning machine.
With a capacity ranging from 60 to 120 capsules per minute, the SR SMART Series is the perfect solution for small and medium capsule productions, capable of handling any type of capsule in plastic, aluminium, and compostable material. The capsules can be sealed with aluminium film, microperforated, filter paper, triplex laminate, PP and compostable lid. Filters and diaphragms can be inserted into the capsules and on their bottom. The C-900, on the other hand, will be presented as the flagship in terms of capsule cartoning. Combined with high-speed capsule filling machines, C-900 can pack capsules in a wide range of sizes and different carton configurations, allowing the insertion of interlayers and/or inlays according to customers’ requirements and ensuring capsule stability and integrity.
It is possible to discover the widest range of solutions and services offered by IMA Coffee HUB on the MS-H10 booth at the World of Coffee in Milan (23-25 june 2022).
