Go behind the scenes and fast-track your coffee journey with a completely bespoke, private tuition day. This immersive, full-day experience is designed specifically for passionate prosumers looking to master home roasting, aspiring craft roasters, or coffee entrepreneurs and mobile trailer operators who want to skip the "rabbit warren" phase. From roast profile development to the gritty realities of sourcing, packaging, and scaling, you’ll gain the practical shortcuts and tactile insights that simply can't be found in a textbook. You will spend a full day with our founder and Managing Director, Chris Brett, inside our dedicated production space. Because this day is entirely free-form and driven by your unique goals, there is no rigid syllabus—just unrestricted "ask me anything" access to help you achieve exactly what you want to, whether that's perfecting a hobby or launching a brand. Your journey begins over a fresh batch brew as we audit your current knowledge, setup (if you have one yet), goals, and challenges. From there, we step onto the roastery floor to look at real production workflows, discuss green bean mechanics, and fire up the roasters for a completely hands-on deep dive. What to Expect Objectives Audit & Strategy Session: A deep, sit-down discussion completely tailored to you or your venture. Pick Chris’s brain on the realities of starting from scratch: from choosing your very first home setup and beginning roasting, to the logistics of equipment selection, setting up a café, or launching a subscription model. Operational Reality on the Roastery Floor: Get hands-on with green beans from around the world. We’ll look at real-world production workflows, chaff management, and green handling, discussing the "why" behind every operational decision we make, regardless of scale. Dual-Scale Live Roasting & Profile Talk: Experience the best of both worlds in action. We will get hands-on with sample roasting and small-batch profiling on our electric Cormorant Roaster—the ultimate bridge for prosumers—before stepping up to talk through real-time roast curves, thermal dynamics, and commercial production cycles on our Roastmax 5kg roaster. The Commercial Sensory Lab & Cupping: Join Chris for a professional cupping session. Enjoy a guided exploration of the complex aromas associated with specialty coffee. Using our professional sensory kit, you’ll learn to identify specific notes—from citrus and floral to toasted nuts and cacao—sharpening your palate before we begin tasting a diverse range of coffees side-by-side. Exclusive Perks: Your mentorship doesn't end when the roaster cools down. To keep you fueled, a full lunch is included from our neighboring restaurant, The Kitchen. You’ll also take home a curated selection of our green and roasted beans to experiment with on your own setup. This is a premium, one-of-a-kind opportunity to gain direct mentorship inside a working specialty roastery. Because this requires Chris to completely step away from running our core business operations, dates are strictly limited to one private session per month to ensure a valuable, highly focused experience.
