Stronghold · Scaled up for quantity and quality
S9X
Designed to improve productivity and convenience without compromising flavour, the Stronghold S9X is essential for large roasteries and specialty cafés with wholesale demands.
Overview
Engineered for scale.
The official roaster of the World Coffee Championships, the S9X proves that innovation and creativity are possible even on a full commercial-scale roaster.
Advanced controls make it easy to create complex profiles, while Stronghold’s auto-replication process and 3-9kg capacity allow you to scale up exponentially while maintaining your coffee’s quality, roast after roast.
Roast Your Way
Easily create and save the perfect batch
Program Roasting
The S9X automatically calculates the best parameters for a coffee's origin, processing method, and desired roast level to create the perfect batch.
Manual Roasting
Control every detail, including conductive, radiant, and convective heat levels with surgical precision to create your very own custom profile.
Profile Auto-Save
Roast with confidence knowing that your favourite profiles are tracked, saved, and always readily available.
World's First Triple Heat System
Three dimensions of heat, controlled independently.
With Stronghold's unprecedented temperature control, you can manage three dimensions of heat — convective, radiant, and conductive — independently. Meanwhile, the agitating blade always keeps coffee moving to prevent scorching.
Triple Heat · Conductive
Conductive drum heater
The S9X features a conductive drum heater that's ready to roast in 10 minutes, allowing you to fine-tune complex profiles and broaden the scope of your flavours.


Triple Heat · Radiant
Halogen lamps
Elevating the S9X above its competition, four halogen lamps provide consistent radiant heat which penetrates through every bean, evenly developing flavour from the inside out.
Triple Heat · Convective
Hot air blower
A powerful convection system circulates hot air throughout the drum and transfers heat to every bean, supporting controlled, even distribution across every roast. Now with variable blower speed.
