In this one-day course, you will learn about the roasting process: roast cycle, roast levels, identifying defects, the physical changes that coffee beans undergo during the roasting process, as well as workspace management and lean production.

The foundation course will also give you an understanding of the physical changes that take place during the process and how to control the sensory aspects of the coffee by roasting light or dark. Additionally, you will be taught about the basic structure of the roasting machine, general maintenance, and fire prevention. Practical learning objectives and activities prepare the learner to follow instructions, given by the trainer, for three different roasts and record relevant data and observations per roast using a suitable roast log. A written exam tests theoretical knowledge based on foundation course learning objectives.

This course is globally accredited by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) – if you take the optional SCA Written and Practical Exam ($75) and pass, you will receive an SCA Certificate in ‘Roasting, Foundation Level’ and earn 5 points towards the SCA Coffee Skills Diploma. This is a full-day class from 10 am - 6 pm, including an hour-long lunch break. All attendees upon attending the first SCA course must register online as a learner with SCA, to track their progress. There is no charge for this. We do this together at the start of the course. All learners enjoy a cup of coffee on arrival, a three-course meal with a salad, main and dessert, as well as a coffee bean pin at the end of the course!
