Is your home roast good enough to sell?

I saw this article over the weekend and thought you guys might find it interesting.


They really do wake up and smell the coffee

By Clara Silverstein

Globe Correspondent / March 18, 2009

WALTHAM - Waltham resident Kevin Conzo used to stop for takeout coffee all the time. He took his last sip the day he realized the weak brew didn't satisfy him much more than a glass of water did. He purchased a bag of beans from the supermarket and started brewing his own coffee at home. Then he happened to see a television show about people who roast coffee beans themselves.

"I can do that," he remembers telling his wife, Kristin.
That led to Zachary Dean's Coffee Bean Co., a bean-roasting business that is less than two years old. It began when Conzo rigged a popcorn tin with a metal rod and poured unroasted beans inside. He held the tin over a 500-degree grill in his backyard and spun it so the beans would roast evenly. "The first batch caught fire, and I had to throw it on the ground," he says. He and his wife laugh about it now.
