Mill City Roasters is selling the Big Red Roast Rig. This mobile coffee lab has been to events across the country. If you've seen us at Coffee Fest over the past few years, you've seen Big Red.
Check out the link in our bio to learn more about this truck, which includes a full espresso bar and brewing station. We've loved this truck, the places it's taken us, and all the people it's allowed us to connect with. We're excited to find her a new home. Please reach out if you're interested.

If you're seeing this... here is your reminder to clean your roaster this weekend. 😉

"Not all heroes wear capes. Some wear coffee chaff and smell like smoke all day.
Every Friday, the Roastery shuts things down so Chandler and Jayla can tear apart the roaster, scrape carbon, clean pipes, and keep the whole system running smooth. It’s dirty, sweaty, unglamorous work — but it’s a huge part of why the coffee tastes the way it does.
Give these absolute beasts some love in the comments 👇☕🔥
Cupping at the speed of light ⚡
Every week, our coffee team cups to evaluate roast quality, consider potential purchases, check in on greens in our warehouse, or provide feedback to roasters who have sent us their coffee.
Cupping is a standardized process that’s done the same way all around the world. It’s an opportunity to slow down, focus on the product, and remember what our equipment is built for.
The craft never stops. 🫘

In this final video, Lauren goes over all of the cupping notes from the high-end Yellow Honey process coffee from Costa Rica. Stay tuned for the next episode, or give the full video a watch over on our youtube @millcityroaster .

Death before decaf? Not anymore. ☕✨ We've added a single-estate decaf from Colombia to our wholesale menu that's traceable, consistent, and delicious. This is decaf done right. Full story at the link in bio.

"I needed a refresh in the roastery, so I asked Isaac if I could to do some of his job today. I got reacquainted with the 10K, “Silk Sonic”, and roasted Espresso for Temp, coffees for a local church, and some for our loyal subscribers.
I’m so humbled and thankful for every team member, customer, and friend we’ve made through @stratacoffeeroasting and @tempcoffeeandexpress .
No one achieves anything alone ✨

Also, I am remembering a few years ago when I went to Minneapolis to get my roasting certification with Mill City, and everyone at the gym I dropped in at thought I was learning how to roast people—like, comedy."
Ever wonder what it's like to cup coffees before they hit the market? Origin cuppings are a sneak peek at what producers and importers are working on, like pre-ship approvals, processing experiments, or undiscovered microlots. Our new blog post walks through the full experience. Link in bio.

"ROAST DAY VIBES ✌️
It’s Wednesday and you know what that means! David and I are in the Roast Lab getting after it. Busy season is upon us and that means it’s getting hot in this room 🥵
We couldn’t be more grateful for all of you ❤️"
Craftsmanship isn't a feature. It's a standard. Every part of the M-Series is made in house by our dedicated fabrication team, built to match the care and intention you bring to every roast.

Back to school!
Our head roaster Keith had an absolute blast at the Mill City Roasting campus with our longtime roaster manufacturer—spending three days getting to know our roaster better and learning from the best 🔥. Big thanks to Mill City for all they do and for their incredible support in helping us bring you our sweet, beautiful coffee ✨.

Coffee Nerds 🤝 Bike Nerds
Our two industries overlap a ton, just like they did at Sea Otter Classic ( @seaotterclassic ) last weekend in Monterey. Gates Belt Drive ( @gates.bicycle ) brought a few cases of custom roasted coffee to share at the 4-day festival.
We love collabs that give us the chance to work with other brands that are as fixated on quality and performance as we are.
Send us a message to learn more about custom branded coffees for events, fundraisers, trade shows, and more!
