How we roast coffee influences the flavors that are developed. How quickly or slowly the roast progresses and the temperatures we roast at will enhance or reduce complexity, sweetness, and body. For this class, students will receive samples of a Washed processed coffee from the Worka Sakaro washing station in Gedeb, Ethiopia roasted 4 different ways and copies of the roast curves. Together, we will cup these coffees and evaluate the positive and negative attributes of each roast and how to modify our roast profile to optimize desirable characteristics.

In this course we will cover:

• Steps of the Washed Processing Method and how they impact flavor
• Variety, Elevation, Terroir, Density, Moisture Content and why they impact roast thermodynamics
• Cupping for profile development and Quality Control
