In the world of specialty coffee, where every bean is a potential masterpiece, the importance of precision, skill, and knowledge cannot be overstated. For businesses investing in high-quality roasters which give you complete control over the roast, the machine is as effective as the hands that operate it. Proper training for coffee roasters is not just a valuable asset—it’s an essential component in minimizing waste, maximizing flavor potential, and ensuring consistent quality in every batch.

In the world of coffee roasting, precision and quality are paramount. As roasters scale up their operations to meet increasing demand, they encounter a host of new challenges, one of the most significant being the management of emissions. This is where afterburners come into play, becoming an essential component for larger coffee roasters.

The San Franciscan Roaster is a carefully constructed machine made for the purpose of roasting. As any specialty coffee aficionado is aware, roasting is an art as well as a science; this means that any alteration to the material, composition, and other variables will affect the process and the roastmaster’s ability to control or define the final roast. The makeup of our machines enhances the ability for unique roasts, which have a big impact on the final cup. It’s why our carefully crafted design has considered the architecture, the materials, and unique characteristics —such as the thickness of the drum—to create a stable thermal platform and the perfect conditions for a consistent, premium, and one-of-a-kind roast.

If you’re like us, you’ve probably seen hundreds, if not thousands of different kinds of “Save the Bees!” campaigns. Whether on social media, TV, or in person, people have been using their voices to help spread the word about the importance of bees, how they help the environment, and the current danger they are facing of possibly going extinct.

Coffee is as universal as the air we breathe. From South America to Asia back to Europe and Africa, coffee is consumed all over the world. It’s one of the most popular drinks on the market and has been for hundreds and hundreds of years. While coffee may have been around a lot longer than researchers can prove, its earliest known use was in the 15th century in Yemen, in the Sufi Monasteries. From there, the consumption of coffee can be traced in many countries throughout history.
