At Fika Coffee Roasting, we believe that every cup of coffee should tell a story. A story of careful craftsmanship, unwavering quality, and a deep respect for the origins of each coffee bean. This belief is at the heart of our small batch roasting process, where artistry meets precision to create the perfect roast every time.
What Is Small Batch Roasting?
Small batch roasting is exactly what it sounds like—roasting coffee beans in smaller quantities to ensure greater control over the entire process. Unlike large-scale industrial roasting, which prioritizes volume over nuance, small batch roasting allows us to fine-tune every roast, bringing out the best in each bean.
The Process: From Bean to Cup
Our journey begins with sourcing the finest green coffee beans from sustainable and ethical farms around the world. Each bean is chosen for its unique flavor profile, origin, and quality. We work closely with our farmers to ensure that their hard work is honored in every roast.
Selection and Preparation Before roasting, we carefully inspect our green coffee beans for quality. Each batch is measured and prepared for roasting, ensuring consistency from start to finish.
The Roast Using our state-of-the-art roaster, we approach each batch with the precision of a scientist and the heart of an artist. Temperature, time, and airflow are meticulously monitored to bring out the unique characteristics of each coffee. The goal is to highlight the beans' natural flavors—whether it's the bright citrus notes of an Ethiopian single origin or the rich chocolate undertones of a Colombian roast.
Tasting and Refining After roasting, we taste-test (also known as "cupping") each batch to ensure it meets our high standards. This step is crucial for maintaining consistency and delivering the exceptional quality our customers expect.
Packaging and Delivery Once roasted to perfection, the beans are quickly packed to preserve their freshness and flavor. From our roastery to your home, we ensure that every bag of Fika Coffee Roasting beans is as fresh as the day it was roasted.
