About The Class

The Roasting Foundation course gives the learner an understanding of the roasting process, including the physical changes that take place during the process and how to control sensory aspects of the coffee by roasting light or dark. Learners will also gain an understanding of the basic structure of the roasting machine, general maintenance, and fire prevention. Practical learning objectives and activities prepare the learner to follow instructions, given by the trainer, for three different roasts and record relevant data and observations per roast using a suitable roast log. A written exam tests theoretical knowledge based on Foundation course learning objectives.

CLASS CAPACITY: 9 students

SCA course certificate is included in the class cost.

When constructing blend recipes, it’s common to swap components based on harvest and availability. The key is to follow the same approach and roast profile, making only minor adjustments as needed.
 
To test this, we asked our in-house roasting professional, Mike Romagnino, to conduct production roasts of one coffee from both Mexico and Brazil. With his 15+ years of roasting specialty coffee, we knew he could see how closely a Mexican coffee could match the flavor profile of a Brazilian offering🔥
