About Roasts and Roasting

Overview: We have a proprietary roasting system that combines age-old artistry with modern technology, to roast each coffee to perfection, each and every time. Our roast profiles call for numerous adjustments to temperature and air flow over the elapsed time of each roast. And it varies by type of bean, time of year, temperature, and weather. We don't just push a button and hope for the best.

Our Roastmasters roast and re-roast each coffee until we get the maximum out of each bean, using our unique roasting system. Then, we take exhaustive measurements of the result, and develop the most rigid specifications in the industry. Finally, our computer programs assist our Roastmaster in duplicating this perfection profile each end every time, regardless of conditions. Each and every roast is analyzed and tasted, to men sure you are getting the best possible coffee.

The Roasts:

Regular (Full-City): Our standard roast. Develops the beans to their fullest flavor point. Full-bodied, slightly sweet, well-rounded.

Espresso Roast: Developed specifically for prefect espressos, but great for other methods as well. This roast is carefully coasted past our Full City Roast until the beans are dark brown and well-oiled. Releases the4 full flavor of the coffee, with a hint of smokiness.

French Roast: One of our most popular, the "Left Coast Roast". Roasted past the pop and sizzle, until the beans are very dark brown and very oily. Intense coffee and smoky flavors.

Extra Dark: Not for the feint of heart. Roasted past French Roast until the beans are almost black. Smokiness dominates this roast. Very, very intense.
