Trying to figure out the optimal way of powering the exhaust out of a roaster with a 22"x30" Drum and 140,000 BTUs. Cost of parts is a factor. I might be able to get a great deal on a new 2hp single phase motor with a 5/8" shaft. with that I can probably easily power both the drum rotation and...

If I'm preheating the roaster at about 500°F for about 20minutes(to make sure everything is up to temperature) before bringing it back down to the drop temp, what bearings should I get? Seems that even if I space the bearings away from the front and rear plates, the heat transfer through the 2"...

I've seen both belt and chain reductions on roasters but no worm drives or gear set ups. Is that because manufacturers want to reduce the amount of heat transfer from the drum shaft to the motor? I'm thinking of doing a 40:1 worm drive reduction from the 1,725RPM 1hp motor to a 1:1 chain and...

indeed there seems to be such a thing, here is a page by Scott Rao that I found on google: do all of the new Probats have double walls? any idea what thickness the individual walls are?

From how I read it... a double wall drum configuration has to do with there being two layers that make up the drum. from the very vague and confusing descriptions(with seemingly more grammatical errors than even my writing has) on manufacturers websites, I feel led to believe there is something...

Hello! I'm searching for technical drawings that illustrate a Probate P25 or an equally sized roaster of a different brand. most importantly the drum dimensions(length, width, and wall thickness). any technical drawings(schematics, blueprints, specs) or just drum dimensions of similarly sized...

sae, a 1lb home-roaster is what I've already built and it works fine. it took a couple of hours to cut up a bicycle and a little welding. i'm now looking to build a 25-50lb capacity roaster

What is the optimal commercial roaster? maybe something that can handle 25-50lbs ..or whatever is an optimal batch size... By optimal I mean: consistent high quality roast relatively not effected by external climate while retaining great fine tuning ability. +size of drum(diameter, length, and...
