How Roasting Works
We start with a short intro to the roasting process. What actually happens to a coffee bean in the drum, and why it matters. No jargon, no prior knowledge needed.
Watch a Full Roast Run
One of our roasters runs a batch while talking through what they're watching for. You see the colour change, hear first crack, and understand what you're about to do before you do it.
You Run Your Own Batch
Hands on the controls of the Probat sample roaster, with one of our roasters alongside you. You decide when to drop the batch.
Taste Everything Together
All the roasts from the session are cupped together. You taste the differences, talk through what caused them, and understand what you made.
Take Your Coffee Home
100g of the coffee you roasted, bagged and ready to brew. Give it a day or two to rest before you make it.

Your teacher
Our sessions are run by people who've spent years working across the coffee industry. Between our team, we've been baristas, roasters, and on the sales side of coffee brands. We know the industry from most angles.Roasting knowledge has always been closely held in coffee. The people who know how to do it well don't often share it. We built Sample Roasting 101 because we think that's a shame. Coffee is more interesting when you understand what actually happened to the bean before it got to your cup.The session is 90 minutes on a real commercial sample roaster. You do the roasting. We're next to you the whole time. Sessions are capped at three people, so you get proper time on the machine, not a demonstration from across the room.No experience needed. We'll show you everything from the start.
