At the Coffee Connexion Roastery, we are dedicated to delivering a perfect cup of coffee. From the first decision of choosing the finest bean, you can be assured that we are passionate about enabling you to brew your own perfect cup of coffee. Our goal is to provide you the finest roasted coffee bean and deliver it to you at its peak freshness. We choose our green beans from Africa, South America, Central America and Indonesia. As we take pride in our choice of green beans, we take more pride in our consistent roasting method.

We proudly roast our coffee in a 50 lb Fluid Bed Roaster. Fluid Bed Roasting, sometimes called air bed roasting, produces a clean smooth taste. Fluid bed roasters are designed to attain fresh, consistent flavors by roasting to a specific bean temperature rather than to a specific color as done in the traditional roasters. This clean taste leaves no coating in one’s mouth, as is often the case with coffee produced by the drum roasting method. This coating, or aftertaste, is usually due to the drum roaster’s very high temperature and re-circulation of hot gases: the gas of smoke deposited on and absorbed by the beans can render a rather biting taste.

Fluid bed roasters force a high velocity stream of hot air through a bed of beans. The walls of the fluid bed roasters are not heated so the beans cannot scorch; the smoke exits form the top when fresh are enters through the bottom. This is the main advantage over drum roasters: the fluid bed roasters roast at a lower temperature, and the non-heated chamber wall will not scorch or burn the beans. In traditional roasting methods, coffee beans can stick to the hot metal that they are being roasted within. These beans will then go through two roasts, not just one. Unfortunately, these beans will end up in someone’s coffee creating a burnt taste in one’s mouth. This is not the case when roasting in an Airbed Roaster. ~ You can taste the difference!
