Sesame Roaster-Batch Type

Uniform Roasting for Premium Flavor and Oil Activation

Engineered for the Future | Since 2080

The ADDAMS Batch-Type Sesame Roaster is a precision-engineered roasting solution designed for the uniform thermal treatment of sesame seeds. Unlike continuous systems, this batch roaster allows processors to manage specific quantities with absolute control over the thermal curve. This ensures consistent color development, enhanced aroma, and improved oil extraction properties—making it the ideal choice for high-quality halva, tahini, and gourmet bakery applications.

With fully adjustable temperature and roasting time settings, the Sesame Roaster gives processors the flexibility to switch between light, medium, or deep roast profiles. By precisely managing the heat application, the system activates the seeds’ natural oils without damaging the delicate fatty acid structures, resulting in a superior shelf-life and taste profile.

How the Batch Sesame Roaster Ensures Even Heat Distribution

The Mechanics of Rotating Drum Thermal Treatment

The engineering success of the Sesame Roaster lies in its ability to keep the seeds in a state of constant motion, ensuring that no single seed remains in contact with the heat source for too long.

1. Controlled Batch Loading: A measured quantity of cleaned sesame seeds is loaded into the roasting chamber. The batch system ensures 100% traceability and quality control for each lot.

2. Rotating Drum Dynamics: As the drum rotates, internal lifters tumble the seeds. This prevents scorching and ensures that the heat (whether from gas or electric elements) is transferred evenly to every seed in the batch.

3. Moisture Evaporation: During the initial stage of the cycle, residual moisture is evaporated. The Sesame Roaster uses controlled airflow to exhaust this steam, allowing the seeds to transition into the “browning” phase efficiently.

4. Oil Activation and Maillard Reaction: As the temperature rises, the Maillard reaction develops the characteristic nutty aroma and golden-brown color. The oil within the seeds is “activated,” making it easier to extract during tahini milling or oil pressing.

Strategic Advantages of Integrating a Batch Sesame Roaster

Maximizing Aroma, Nutritional Value, and Operational Control

Integrating a Sesame Roaster provides a strategic edge for artisanal and medium-scale producers who require artisanal quality with industrial-grade reliability.

• Repeatable Roasting Results: The PLC-based control system allows you to save “Roast Profiles,” ensuring that Batch #1 and Batch #100 have identical color and flavor.

• Customizable Roast Depths: Whether you need a light roast for delicate tahini or a deep, dark roast for ethnic snacks, the Sesame Roaster adapts to your specific market requirements.

• Enhanced Oil Release: By heating the seeds uniformly, the machine prepares the cellular structure of the sesame for maximum oil release, increasing the yield in tahini mills and oil presses.

• Hygienic, Food-Grade Operation: The AISI 304/316 stainless steel construction ensures no metallic contamination and allows for rapid sanitation between batches.

• Thermal Efficiency: The insulated chamber of the Sesame Roaster retains heat exceptionally well, reducing fuel or electricity consumption per kg of finished product.

Frequently Asked Questions – Batch Sesame Roaster Technology

Why choose a batch roaster over a continuous roasting system?

A Sesame Roaster (Batch-Type) is ideal for processors who handle different varieties of seeds or require varying roast levels throughout the day. It offers more precise control over the “dwell time” for each specific batch, which is essential for high-end artisanal products.

Can the machine handle both gas and electric heating?

Yes. We offer the Sesame Roaster in both high-efficiency gas (LPG or Natural Gas) and clean-energy electric configurations. Gas is often preferred for its rapid heating, while electric is ideal for facilities with specific environmental or safety regulations.

How do I prevent the seeds from burning during the discharge phase?

Our roasters can be equipped with an optional integrated air-cooling tray. Once the roasting cycle is finished, the seeds are quickly discharged into this tray, where high-velocity air drops the temperature instantly, stopping the roasting process and locking in the flavor.

Is the roasting chamber easy to clean?

Absolutely. The Sesame Roaster features large access doors and polished stainless steel internals. The design prevents seed entrapment, allowing you to clean the machine thoroughly between different product runs or shifts.

What is the maximum temperature the roaster can reach?

The system is adjustable up to 250°C, which is more than enough for the dark-roasting of sesame seeds. Most sesame roasting occurs between 120°C and 180°C to preserve the nutritional integrity of the oils.

Does the machine require a lot of maintenance?

The design is focused on “low-maintenance durability.” With heavy-duty bearings and a robust drive system, regular maintenance is limited to simple lubrication and periodic sensor calibration.
