San Joaquin Coffee Company

Coffea Arabica /əˈræbɪkə/ - a species of Coffea originally indigenous to the mountains of the southwestern highlands of Ethiopia. It is also known as the "coffee shrub of Arabia", "mountain coffee" or "arabica coffee". Coffea arabica is believed to be the first species of coffee to be cultivated, being grown in southwest Ethiopia for well over 1,000 years. Coffea Arabica produces a better tastin

g coffee than other commercially grown coffee species. Our Roasting Technique

At San Joaquin Coffee we take the path least traveled, using a custom designed fluid bed roaster to produce the purest coffee possible. We only use small batch roasting to insure top quality products. We hand select the finest high grown Arabica coffees from around the world. Benefits of Fluid Bed Roasting:
● Its an environmentally friendly roasting technique, conserving more energy than used in wasteful drum roasting.
● "Fluid" bed roasters get their name from the beautiful fluidity of the movement of the beans as they roast. The coffee beans float in the air in the heated roasting chamber allowing them to be evenly heated to the same temperature at the exact same time.
● Burning the coffee beans "chaff can make the coffee taste "burnt" or "bitter", so instead burning the chaff inside a drum as is most commonly done, the chaff is removed during the "fluid" roasting process and deposited in a chaff collector resulting in a smooth and balanced coffee that is not burned or bitter.
● Beans are then quickly cooled for maximum flavor and quality for your enjoyment

Each step in the process is carefully done by hand to insure the highest possible quality and consistency. We take pride in our products and offer a custom coffee… so smooth you will want to drink it black.
