Has Garanti has been building drum roasters in Izmir since 1956, making them one of the older Turkish manufacturers still operating. they focus on gas-heated drum machines aimed at small roasteries and cafes looking for straightforward equipment without the price tag of European manufacturers. their Infinity series uses profile logging control and drum heating, with batch sizes from 1 kg up to 30 kg in the models we track. the machines give you manual control over drum speed, airflow, and heat, which matters if you want to experiment with different roast styles without spending on full automation. Has Garanti sits in the budget-conscious segment of the market. they're not trying to compete with Probat or Loring on precision or feature depth, but they do offer functional drum roasters at price points that make sense for startups or roasters adding capacity without taking on major capital expense. expect solid construction and thermal efficiency from the drum heating method, but don't expect the same level of repeatability or support network you'd get from established German or American brands. if you're starting out or running a small operation where manual control is fine, these are worth considering.
Has Garanti typically prices below European and North American manufacturers in the same capacity range. they compete more directly with other Turkish brands like Ozturk and some Chinese manufacturers. the trade-off is usually in control precision, build refinement, and aftermarket support rather than basic functionality. if you're comparing a 5 kg Has Garanti to a 5 kg Giesen or Mill City, expect to pay significantly less, but also expect to rely more on your own skills to maintain consistency. for budget-focused startups, that math often works out, especially if you're comfortable with manual roasting and basic troubleshooting.
these are manual machines with profile logging rather than full automation, so your learning curve depends on your roasting experience. if you're coming from sample roasters or other manual drums, the transition is straightforward. you control heat, airflow, and drum speed directly, which means you need to understand how those variables interact. the profile logging helps you track what worked, but it won't replicate profiles automatically. expect to spend time dialing in each coffee and building your own roasting protocols. if you want software-driven repeatability out of the box, look at machines with more advanced control systems. if you want to learn roasting fundamentals hands-on, the manual nature can actually be beneficial.
start by calculating your actual daily production needs, not your optimistic projections. a 5 kg machine roasting three batches per hour gives you roughly 120 kg in an eight-hour day if you're running flat out, which most small roasteries never do consistently. the 1 kg makes sense only for very small cafes doing fresh roasts on demand or for extensive sample roasting. the price difference between 1 kg and 5 kg models is relatively small compared to the output difference, so most commercial operations should start at 5 kg minimum. if you're already doing wholesale or plan to within a year, consider the 30 kg or look at their 15 kg models. undersizing your roaster means you'll hit capacity constraints faster than you expect.
