Ratios beat gear, every time. Pick a method, watch the water move, steal the recipe.
All recipes assume Steady State, our medium. Going darker? Drop your water five degrees and shorten the steep. Going lighter? Give the bloom fifteen more seconds.

Green coffee staged by lot number while the drum climbs to 401°F. The building smells like burlap and yesterday's Vienna.

Twelve kilos of Yirgacheffe hit the drum at six sharp. Eleven minutes later we listen, not watch. The bean says when.
03 / 04· 06:40
Every batch is tasted blind by three roasters. Two yes votes is not enough. It takes three.
04 / 04· 09:00
Approved lots get one way valve bags and a hand stamped roast date. Crack to doorstep inside 48 hours, that is the promise.
