Note: Tim is a craft roaster and this is a labor of love, not a full-time roastery. All roasting takes place the first week of each month, targeting the 1st through the 7th of the month. Deliveries, when specified, are done the next day.
Royal 5 Roasters is borne out of a desire to revive the craftsmanship of old world style coffee roasting. We use a restored Royal #5 (patented in 1914) coffee roaster, give painstaking attention to process detail, and combine modern techniques in cooling and packaging to produce some of the finest coffee you’ve ever tasted.
Our roasters are craftsmen dedicated to craft coffee revival, with each of us bringing a unique story, skill set, and perspective. Find out more on the About Us page.
Craft roasting is the careful process in which we use artistic methods to bring out the best distinctives of each coffee growing region. The full-bodied punch of coffee from Colombia should be lively, not over run with charred smoke taste. The blueberry overtones of coffee from Ethiopia should be bright, not lifeless. Neither coffee should be flat, lifeless, or taste like dirt. Our craft methods ensure we get the best results, each time. How do we coax clean and lively flavor out of raw coffee beans?
