"Roasting coffee is like looking at an elaborate mural. The spectrum is so vast that you have to choose where to focus." -- Founding Roaster & Managing Director, Nils Weisensee
Roasting coffee is an art and this month Volcán Roastmaster Sean Yin will give coffee fans a fresh look at the artistry behind the bean. Join us for our Roasting Basics Workshop to get a taste of what goes into preparing those delicious coffee beans before they are brewed for your favorite drink. While the barista may be the star performer dazzling the audience, the roaster is the producer, designing the scene before the colorful story unfolds.
How do you squeeze out more blueberry juice from a bean from Ethiopia? And why is Sumatra Wahana so dark and earthy in contrast? Is an herbal and citrus bergamot twist only possible in my espresso blend or also achievable in a single origin? All of these flavor characteristics are determined before the beans get in a barista's hands.
Roastmaster Yin will take you through the basics of roasting and green bean sourcing. Plus you'll learn a bit more about our namesake Volcán family estate, where our signature Guatemala beans originate.
This three-hour workshop will include an interactive lecture, roasting session, and group Q&A. *Conducted primarily in Chinese (Mandarin).
