Coffee 101: Learn to Roast
Coffee 101: Classes

As seen on The Food Network, coffee has brought us years of pleasure and enjoyment. AJ Java has been roasting coffee since 2006. And eventhough we have spent years providing roasted coffee to fellow coffee shops and local markets, we discovered a growing curiosity in our own retail coffee customer. Over the years, more and more green coffee has been sold to the home roaster. And, we want to see the trend grow. We love coffee, and it is not as hard as you think. As we know, and want to teach you, coffee is always best when you roast it yourself....................................Roast it, Grind it, Brew it.

Learn the basics and history of coffee. Learn about the dancing goat, and the difference between robusta and arabica beans. You'll get to roast on a commercial roaster, and learn how to home roast with common household items. approx. 2hrs....$150.00pp

Whats the Big Difference: What Makes Coffee Different?
