COFFEE ROASTING PROCESS
1. Green Bean delivery/Drying stage
The green coffee beans need to be dried. Coffee beans have around 10% humidity, which all needs to be extracted before any roasting. Screening process is being applied to have the best beans available. All Coffee purchased come from Certified Suppliers According to ICO & CQI as well as the Coffee Quality Institute.
2. Roasting stage
The roasting stage is the main process, and the most important one as the coffee beans will advance all their flavours, character, and colour during this process. Each type of coffee demands a different process during roasting. By altering the temperature and duration we can have different coffee profiles and characteristics. We have worked out the perfect formula for our coffee beans.
3. Cooling stage
The beans have been dried and roasted. Then on we interrupt the roasting stage to swiftly bring the beans down to room temperature. By quickly reducing the temperature of the coffee beans after roasting, the beans can store all their unique flavours.
