“I love the quality that the machine puts out”

“We’re known around this area for quality coffee and If I didn’t have a San Franciscan, I don’t know that I would have that quality. I have roasted with other people on other roasters and I don’t believe that I could get that quality with other roasters.”

“We were able to recoup the cost of our roaster in the first year and that’s just the savings alone”

“We were able to recoup the cost of our roaster in the first year and that’s just the savings alone. The machine is such a solid operating machine that is simple to maintain and simple to use and doesn’t require complex service calls to come out …. “

“It would work 24 hours a day if we let it”

“It’s Consistent, I love it. The machines themselves, once they get up to temperature and Robbie gets them throttled right, they’re steady. This thing would work 24 hours a day if we let it. As we grow, we will buy another San Franciscan.”

"The manual aspect of San Franciscan roasters are unparalleled"

SF-1-7-V3-smlThe manual aspect of San Franciscan roasters are unparalleled. They are tailor made for specialty/third wave coffee roasting. The quick response time is perfect as well. We specialize in single-origin coffee only and go through about 50+ unique lots a year, so nimbleness and responsiveness are key. We tried several roaster manufacturers before finding San Franciscan; we won't go back!

"These roasters are extremely well made"

We purchased a 10 pound roaster for our Reserve coffees for Corvus Coffee. We've had nothing but excellent experiences both with the machine and the support! These roasters are extremely well made, and the 10 pounder has great control of airflow and gas/heat. The team at SF is always responsive to the (very few) questions or needs we've had with the machine. Probably buying more SF roasters going forward.

"Beautiful roaster! A center piece of our cafe"

ohio-roasting-companyBeautiful roaster! A center piece of our cafe. There were a couple minor issues with roaster in the beginning but San Franciscan’s customer service was good. Technical support diagnosed them quickly and parts were sent.
I bought mine during COVID which may have caused delays and some quality control issues. Overall, I’m pretty happy with the machine and the company and would recommend them.

"Easy to clean, operate, troubleshoot....you name it"

We are a small batch roaster in Birmingham, AL, roasting on an SF-6. I couldn’t ask for a better roaster to roast on. I have roasted on many other brands and with the San Fran, I know what I’m going to get out of this machine every single roast and that it is going to roast coffee as well as I could possibly roast it. Easy to clean, operate, troubleshoot....you name it. But it’s built like a tank. It’s American Made so I know parts and service will never be an issue. And if I ever need to upgrade in size, I know that it holds its value. Not that I ever plan on parting with it. I never plan to buy any other roaster now besides a San Fran.

"One of the best decisions I made when starting my coffee roasting business"


"The San Franciscan is a real workhorse. True continuous duty, great airflow, very solid construction, and a beautiful design. All this and great service to back it up. Four years and 250,000 pounds later, it is still going strong. One of the best decisions I made when starting my coffee roasting business."

"We love their old style look mixed with good electronics"


"We have two 25lb San Franciscan roasters named Frannie and Cisco. As Roastmaster, I love roasting on these two work horses. I roast simultaneously on both of them, with no problem. We love their old style look mixed with good electronics. If maintainence is kept up, they will work well. As a good companion, we roast all our samples on our 1lb San Franciscan, keeping them harmonious with our roasting process."

Paul Allen - Roastmaster

"They took the roasting experience and perfected the process!"


San Franciscan Roaster Co. were so helpful and worked with us from the beginning (our first phone call with them) to our first roasting experience. They helped with deciding which roaster size would be best for our size business. We were put in contact with other coffee roasters who had purchased a San Franciscan Roaster to get feedback. We met some very awesome people who have had the San Franciscan Coffee Roaster for well over a decade and loved it!

The San Franciscan SF6 Coffee Roaster has been reliable and very easy on maintenance. Since we are in a very rural area (the mountains), they were able to guide us through standard maintenance and then some. We have been operating our SF6 Coffee Roaster now for 2 years and have not had any problems.

The roasting process with the San Franciscan is great...our coffee has had very high praise. They took the roasting experience and perfected the process!

If one day we decide to double our business we would definitely buy another San Franciscan Coffee Roaster!
