Promethium Coffee Roasters is a United States based roaster project launching in twenty-twenty-five. This is the journey log, follow along to take an otherworldly journey with us.
Memo: Progress moving once again at light speeds. So incredibly thankful for so many supporting members of the specialty community. About to send out initial samples to key shops and figures throughout the industry in the motherland.
Are we ready?
Who are we kidding? We’ve been preparing secretly for years. You just didn't know it.

Memo:
Going for gold in search for a lighter profile we love for clean ethopian varietals. Working with some cleaner greens from Prodigal as throw aways to profile experiment.

Memo: Profiles locked in. Attempt no.29 on this roaster. It feels so good to be back in the drivers seat after all these years.
Cannot stress enough the importance of sourcing good green.

Memo: We are so cooking. Seasoning the roaster with some throwaway green we have. Then onto a couple micro lots we were able to source through Scott Rao at prodigal and some co-ferment insanity directly from producers.
Gatekeeping status: strongly encouraged
