ROASTING

INNOVATIVE ROASTING PROCESS

Grinders sources the highest-grade green coffee beans (raw beans) from South and Central America, Africa, India, East Timor, Indonesia and Papua New Guinea, including micro-lots that come direct from farms. We roast these green beans from each origin separately, ensuring the best flavours from the origins are retained and untarnished. 

Then, we rest the beans to make sure we get the most robust flavour out of each origin. Grinders Master Roasters refine our blends afterwards, ensuring consistency and the perfect balance of taste from each blend—before bringing them to your home in Australia.

FROM GREEN COFFEE BEANS TO THE PERFECT ROAST

It is by roasting that we’re able to create the aroma compounds that determine the coffee’s flavour profile. The right amount of heat and roast time will transform the soft and spongy green coffee beans with the grassy aroma into premium-quality roasted coffee beans you can enjoy.

At Grinders, we put our years of experience to good use by following industry-standard coffee roasting practices, coupled with state-of-the-art equipment to come up with only the finest whole beans.

COFFEE BEAN ROASTING

Roasting is key to flavour development. It’s a simple but meticulous process that’s easy to mess up, and the slightest mistake can mean the difference between a perfect roast and a ruined batch. At Grinders, we follow the best practices when drying, browning and roasting coffee beans.  In general, roast coffee beans come in the following categories (roast levels):
  • Light roast
  • Medium roast
  • Medium-dark roast
  • Dark roast
Do you favour light-roasted coffee? Darker roasts, perhaps? We just want you to enjoy fresh coffee anytime you wish and continue roasting as long as there are coffee lovers like you out there.

TECHNOLOGY

Grinders is the first coffee roaster in the southern hemisphere to invest in the V400 colour sorter. The V400 Electronic Colour Sorter works to ensure that only perfectly roasted, whole beans (aka the highest-quality coffee beans) make it into every bag.

The colour sorter uses a series of 16 cameras, 8 colour and 8 infrared, analysing the size, shape, colour and density of the organic coffee beans, ejecting inferior product through a series of 288 air ejectors.

Customer Care

I have been with grinders for over ten years, every cafe we have we been with grinders and loved grinders coffee in general. Support has been fantastic. Pretty straight forward. Love the bean, knew the bean, happy with service.
Best part of our partnership with Grinders is the Territory Manager Brock – he is 15/10. Been with us from early days. Training side very very happy, all credit goes to Brock. Love the smoothness of the coffee (source blend), it’s not bitter and worked with source before.
