How to Roast at Home
These green beans are ready for your home roaster, cast-iron skillet, or popcorn popper. Roasting unlocks the flavour locked in every cherry.
Home Drum Roaster
Load beans at 200°C. Reach first crack ~8–10 min. Stop at second crack for medium-dark.
Cast-Iron Skillet
Medium-high heat. Stir constantly for 10–15 min. Remove at desired colour and cool immediately on a metal tray.
Popcorn Popper
Add 1/2 cup beans. Run 5–8 min to light roast. Longer for medium. Always cool in a colander outdoors — chaff flies.
Rest Before Brewing
Let freshly roasted beans degas 12–48 hours before brewing for optimal flavour clarity.
Origin
The Sidama Highlands
Sidamo (now called Sidama) is Ethiopia's southernmost highland coffee region — a patchwork of small family farms between 1,800 and 2,200 metres. The volcanic red soil, twice-daily cloud cover, and warm African sun create conditions found nowhere else on earth. These beans are traceable to the small local farmers who have tended this land for generations.
