Every cup starts green.
Ridgefork coffee arrives as raw green seed from a single farm or region, and we roast it in small batches at our cafe in Portland, Oregon.
Heat, a little at a time.
Small batches let us watch color, aroma and time for each lot, and adjust the heat before the beans get ahead of us.
Listen for first crack.
The beans pop, the chaff lifts away, and the sugars start to develop. A few seconds either way changes what ends up in your cup.
Then we let it rest.
Fresh coffee gives off carbon dioxide for a day or two after roasting. A short rest helps it brew evenly.
Sealed in a 12 oz bag.
Each bag gets a one-way compostable valve and leaves the roastery within 48 hours of roasting.
The rest is your cup.
Take a bag home to brew, or sit down for a pour-over at 77 Ridgefork Ave.
