What's so special about Mill Bay Coffee's roaster?
Mill Bay Coffee roasts your coffee in a Sivetz roaster which
is a fluid bed roaster. "Fluid bed" refers to the constant movement of
beans and hot air. The beans never rest on any surface. The beans are
levitated by the hot air, which totally engulfs the bean. The air is
what roasts the coffee. The beans never contact a surface that is hotter
than the air that is roasting the beans. This ensures that the beans are
individually and uniformly roasted. The other advantage of a fluid
bed roaster is that it cleans the beans of debris while roasting. In a
traditional barrel roaster, burning chaff from the beans smolders on the
surface of the barrel and coats the beans with tars and residues which
have collected on the surface of the barrel. This does not occur in the
Sivetz roaster used by Mill Bay Coffee!
