Mountain Air Roasters

Air roasting uses a fluid air bed to roast the coffee. The coffee beans are heated by the air alone, not the surface of a drum roaster. Air Roasted coffee has a very clean taste that is intensely aromatic, minus the acids and bitter tars that are produced by conventional drum roasters. Mountain Air Roasters’ owner Cole Rath didn’t come up with this on his own, he learned from the father of Air Roasting, Michael Sivetz. He bought his first Air Roaster after reading Mike’s 736 page book Coffee Processing Technology. As a chemical engineer, Mr Sivetz devoted much of his life to better coffee through learning and understanding the entire chain of the coffee trade including the chemical process and science behind brewing it. He literally invented the Air Roaster.
