How we roast

Small Twelve kilos at a time

Small enough to profile each lot on its own terms, and to stop a roast that is not going where we want it.

Light Stopped before second crack

We roast to taste the farm rather than the roaster. That means brighter cups than a supermarket bag, and it is deliberate.

Fresh Bagged the same morning

Roasted Monday and Thursday, shipped that afternoon. Rest it three days before you brew — it is better on day five than day one.

Where to start

Ratios we use on the bar. Adjust to taste — these get you close on the first try.

For cafés and offices

We supply eleven cafés and a handful of offices around the bay. Wholesale includes dialling-in on your own grinder, staff training, and a standing delivery on the day that suits your week.

There is no minimum contract. If it is not working after a month, stop — we would rather you did than serve coffee you are not happy with.
