360kg Gas Coffee Roaster: Toper TKM-SX 360 Specs

If you’ve ever wondered how large-scale specialty coffee roasters turn thousands of kilograms of green beans into freshly roasted coffee daily, the answer lies in heavy-duty equipment built for volume, precision, and consistency. The kind of machine that doesn’t just roast coffee — it keeps a production line flowing.

The Toper TKM-SX 360 gas coffee roaster is built to roast up to 360kg of green coffee beans per batch. Light roasts take around 10 minutes, while darker roasts extend to approximately 15 minutes. At peak throughput, it can roast 2160kg of coffee per hour for lighter profiles or 1440kg/h for darker ones.

What Is the Toper TKM-SX 360?

The Toper TKM-SX 360 is a commercial gas-powered coffee roaster designed for high-capacity environments. It uses a combination of conductive heating, semi-hot air (semi-direct flame), and hot air circulation to roast coffee. This hybrid approach provides flexibility in heat application, allowing roasters to control the Maillard reaction and development time more precisely across large batches.
