Solar Roast would like to thank all of you fine folks for making the trial period of Solar Roast a success. Due to the high demand for Solar Roasted coffee, we have now SOLD OUT of coffee for the season. When the spring sun starts shining, the coffee will start roasting! Please stay tuned for more updates.

After much debate, Blend 4 has finally been given a name. And we at Solar Roast are proud to introduce the 'Willow Springs Blend' now available to purchase. Click on the Purchase link above for more information!

A recent photo of Mike Hartkop roasting the finest coffee for your enjoyment!! Much of the typical day whilst roasting is taken up by monitoring the sky for weather variations.

Watching the clouds form and pass is important, as the slightest degree of cloud cover creates heat variations. It is the job of the Roastmaster to adjust the heat of the drum according to the clouds.
