A device for thermally treating a pourable plant product includes a receiving device configured to receive the pourable plant product and a gas supply channel configured to supply a heated gas to the receiving device. The gas supply channel is divided directly upstream of the receiving device, in a gas flow direction, into a first gas supply sub-channel and a second gas supply sub-channel which follow each other in a direction of gravity, and which are configured to supply the heated gas to the receiving device. A cross section of at least the first gas supply sub-channel is configured to be closed or reduced before the receiving device independently of the second gas supply sub-section so as to eliminate or reduce a volume of the heated gas to the receiving device via the first gas supply sub-channel.

Abrégé

The invention relates to a device (10) for thermally treating a pourable plant product, particularly for roasting coffee beans. The device (10) has a receiving device (12) for receiving said plant product, as well as a gas supply channel (14) for supplying a heated gas from a heating device to the receiving device (12). According to the invention, the gas supply channel (14) is divided, at least in the direction of the gas flow and directly in front of the receiving device (12), into two supply sub-channels (14a, 14b) through which heated gas can be supplied to said receiving device (12). At least one of the supply sub-channels (14a) can be closed or can be reduced in its cross-sectional area, independently from the other supply sub-channel (14b) and in front of the receiving device (12), in such a manner that there is substantially no more gas flowing to the receiving device (12) through said supply sub-channel (14a), or that the gas volume flow through said supply sub-channel (14a) can be reduced.
