Looking to buy a used roaster

[Pedestrian]

We're a a start up coffee roasting company in Southern California looking to buy a used roaster- preferably a Probat, Giesen, or Diedrich- depending on the price and batch size. We're looking for one with a maximum batch size of around 7-15 lbs- basically, as small as a Diedrich IR-7.

Looking forward to hearing what's out there.

Thanks!

FWIW the link below is another way to search multiple cities craigslists and ebay simultaneously. (not to say you're necessarily going to find what you're looking for)

Hi Pedestrian,

Not sure if you've had any luck finding anything yet, but we just listed for sale on here a beautiful gently used Diedrich IR-12. I understand it may be a step up from what you're looking for, but below is the link if you want to take a look. Cheers.

Thanks NHcoffee for the info on the roaster in Boston. I ended up flying there and buying it!
