Why Our Coffee Tastes so Great

The coffee you buy from us at get Caffeinated is roasted in an oxygen free environment resulting in a more improved flavour.

There are various styles of roasting and it really depends on what we are looking for in a coffee.

You can roast short and powerful or slow and gentle. How you roast coffee has a big impact on the final flavour of the coffee.

When the coffee is roasted, the green coffee beans are placed into the coffee roasting machine.

The coffee roasters then heat the coffee with air. The beans are moved around inside the roasters consistently by paddles and a stream of very hot air is passed through the coffee.

There is always full control over the heat and because the heat is so direct we can make very quick adjustments to the roast.

This is very special because when compared to a traditional coffee roaster where you have flames heating a drum, our heat is directed straight at the beans.

As we are not using a heated drum to roast the coffee, the result is less burning of the surface of the bean (as the roasters use convection and not conduction).

The coffee is roasted thoroughly throughout and with hardly any 'damage' to the bean.

The result is that the coffee is cleaner and smoother in taste and stays fresh much longer compared to traditional coffee roasters.

At the end of the roast, the coffee is then air cooled inside the roasters. This ensures that we are not puffing out smoke into the environment.

Cooling coffee accurately and consistently is really important.

During cooling, the coffee is technically still roasting and air cooling allows the coffee to be more consistent.

After all coffee is roasted it goes through the de-stoner.

This is done to remove any foreign objects such as stones.

The roasting of coffee produces lots of CO2. It is important to allow the coffee to off-gas prior to dispatching.

We rest the coffee for you so that you can enjoy it the moment it arrives.

The result: simply delicious coffee.
