A rotating chamber dry roaster using pre‐heated ceramic beads as heat transfer media was used to roast navy beans. Processing conditions were: beads temperature, 240 and 270°C; bean‐to‐bead ratio, 1/10 and 1/15 and contact times of 1 and 2 min. Product temperatures achieved ranged from 92–125°C for the eight runs. Heat transfer coefficients varied from 3.6–23.4 W/(m 2 ) (°C). Roasted products showed reduced water‐soluble nitrogen content and gel forming capacity, increased water‐holding capacity and cold paste viscosities, and no changes in available lysine and degree of starch damage. Residual trypsin inhibitor (TIA) and hemagglutinin activity varied from 92 to 22%, and 48 to 1%, respectively. A correlation was found to exist between nitrogen solubility index and TIA of products. Roasting caused fracture and separation of hulls, and facilitated their removal.
