Why we roast on Mondays
Coffee is a fresh product. Here's how our weekly roast schedule gets it to you at its best.
Supermarket coffee is often roasted months before you buy it. Ours is roasted on Monday and shipped on Tuesday. Every week, no exceptions.
The rest period
Freshly roasted beans release a lot of CO₂. Brew them the same day and they taste sharp and a little hollow. After four to seven days they hit their peak. By the time your bag arrives and you open it, it's right in that sweet spot.
Small batches
We roast in 15 kg batches on a restored Probat. That's small enough to taste every batch on Tuesday morning before it ships. If a batch isn't right, it doesn't go out.
What it means for you
Your coffee arrives at its best, and it stays good for about six weeks once opened. Keep it in the bag, squeeze out the air, and store it somewhere cool and dark (not the fridge).
