Description

The HCORM 60 is a fully automated HUSCOF PRIME series cocoa & nuts roasting machine, built for green bean or nut charges between 30 kg and 60 kg per drum. A double-walled drum in stainless steel, cast iron, and copper combines conductive and convective heat transfer for consistent aroma and flavor batch after batch, while a user-friendly control panel and Artisan software integration let roasters monitor and record every roast professionally. A Programmable Logic Controller governs temperature, time, and airflow with micro-adjustments made multiple times a second, so roasting profiles can be programmed, saved, and recalled to make sure batch A tastes like batch B. It automatically triggers failsafes, controls cooling tray operation, and manages the drum and burner doors to prevent overheating, while continuously optimizing fuel consumption and reducing heat loss. Four independent motors drive roasting and cooling separately, and the cooling tray with cooling mixers brings a batch down in minutes, locking in aroma and flavor while keeping cycle times short.
