The different types of Roasting required
Sample Roasting - roasting small quantities of coffee sent by importers/exporters to add to our offerings list.
New Coffee Roasting - when a new coffee comes in an initial roast must be done to see how the coffee will roast and what notes we are looking to develop more
Production Roasting - once a new coffee dialed in and tasting good every proceeding roast must be as close to that one as possible.
Cupping
When these samples come in and are sampled a cupping must be done to see if the coffees are at the standard we require or are giving flavors we want coffees to have
When dialing in the new coffees during the new coffee roasting process, cuppings must be performed for every interaction to see how the flavor is being affected.
When the desired notes are found after a good roast the tasting notes can be recorded for packaging.
Production roast cupping is a form of quality assurance, so that we know every roast is coming out correctly.
Recipe development
As the roaster you will also be responsible for deciding how the espresso/ batch brew/iced coffee/cold brew/ pour over will be dialed in for use in the cafes. This should be a collaborative effort with the lead baristas.
Having a discerning palette is critical here.
Packing Orders
Once a week the cafes will submit orders for coffee that will be filled with coffee roasted the previous week.
This means coffee must be roasted a week out so forecasting and record keeping of weekly usage is required
