Start with great coffee, and everything else will follow
We roast our own beans to make the best specialty coffee possible.
Why you should care that we roast our own coffee
Roasting maximizes freshness so we can guarantee a quality cup of coffee
We follow a socially and environmentally-conscious process from bean to cup
Choosing our own roast profile highlights the best characteristics of each origin
How we control the journey from bean to cup
First, we select the beans that fit our criteria
Our beans are sourced from producers in Central America and Africa. We select coffee that is shipped from origin in hermetic storage bags, a green coffee transportation and storage device that extends the “fresh-crop” window in the life cycle of green coffee.
Then, we roast to bring out the best in each origin
The more consistent the roasting, the easier and more enjoyable the brewing process. We assign a specific roast profile to each origin to highlight its best characteristics.
And then, we evaluate daily
Our roasters do coffee cuppings of each batch on a daily basis, to evaluate the quality and uniformity of the green coffee. This aids in the production development processes and serves as quality assurance on inventory checks, age, and any profile changes that need to be made.
Yay for the sharing economy!
This community space makes the roasting dream possible
Participating in a community roastery like Shared Roasting makes it possible to access the machinery, space, and materials needed to roast our own beans.
