The San Franciscan SF-Super 6: 6lb/3kg US-Made Coffee Roaster

 The SF Super 6 represents the next evolution of small-batch roasting.

Designed and built by the San Franciscan Roaster Co., this machine takes everything roasters love about the classic SF-6 and pushes it to new heights of performance and efficiency.
While the original SF-6 remains a global favorite among cafés and small roasteries, the SF Super 6 brings production-scale roasting to a compact format. With the ability to roast and cool simultaneously, you can roast more coffee per hour without compromising the craftsmanship, control, or legendary durability that define every San Franciscan Roaster.

Bigger Output, Same Legendary Craftsmanship

The SF Super 6 is engineered for performance. Built with precision in Carson City, Nevada, USA, this model can roast up to 24 pounds (10.89 kg) of green coffee per hour, producing 20 pounds (9.07 kg) of roasted coffee with unmatched consistency. It’s the ideal bridge between small-batch artistry and mid-sized production capability.
Its continuous roasting and cooling feature—borrowed from our larger commercial roasters—lets you move seamlessly from batch to batch. For busy cafés, growing roasteries, or small commercial operations, that means faster output, better heat retention, and smoother workflow.
Every Super 6 is hand-built using 100% American steel and components. Like all San Franciscan roasters, it’s built to last a lifetime.

Engineered for Roasters Who Demand More

• Every detail of the SF Super 6 has been designed with the roastmaster in mind:
• Continuous roasting and cooling: Roast and cool at the same time for greater hourly throughput.
• Hourly capacity: 8.2 kg (green coffee) / 6.8 kg (roasted coffee).
• BTU rating: 30,000 BTU with options for natural gas or propane.
• Air combo exhaust system: 6-inch positive pressure vent pipe with 466 CFM airflow.
• ETL listed for the USA and Canada, with an NSF option available.
• Electrical requirements: 120V, 6A, 60Hz, single-phase—simple to install and operate.

Ease of Use and Maintenance

The SF Super 6 is designed for the real-world demands of daily production. Like every San Franciscan Roaster, it features removable cooling trays, accessible chaff cyclones, and robust, easy-to-clean construction.
The ashtray at the front allows broken beans to be removed quickly, and the rear-mounted chaff cyclone makes cleaning more efficient than ever.

All key parts—motors, bearings, gas systems, and electrical components—are sourced from trusted American manufacturers such as Baldor, Honeywell, and Martin Bearings for maximum reliability and long-term serviceability.

Precision Control Meets Tradition

The Super 6 delivers full control over every roast variable.

Dual temperature probes monitor both bean mass and environment temperature, displayed simultaneously on dual digital meters. A high-quality gas pressure gauge provides accurate BTU monitoring, and the self-igniting burner ensures a smooth start to every roast.

Compatible with most major data-logging and roasting software, the SF Super 6 bridges traditional hands-on roasting with modern data-driven precision—empowering you to dial in your profiles with confidence.

Built for Performance. Crafted for Life

Every San Franciscan roaster is more than a machine—it’s a lifelong investment in craftsmanship. Each Super 6 is handcrafted from 100% schedule 40 steel, ensuring exceptional heat diffusion without warping or brittleness.
Each is powder-coated in your choice of color, creating a durable, customizable finish that looks as professional as it performs.

Designed, fabricated, and assembled in Carson City, Nevada, the SF Super 6 stands as a testament to American engineering excellence and the San Franciscan legacy of quality.
