Bay Area Coffee Roaster For 40+ Years

How do we do it?

High quality beans

It all starts with quality green coffee. We source outstanding specialty grade coffee from around the world. We don't compromise on the quality of beans that we put in the roaster.

Roast to order

Fresh roasted coffee is the best coffee. We never roast weeks ahead. We only roast a coffee when we need it to fulfill an order. You can taste the difference freshness makes in the cup.

Attention to detail

We are meticulous in our roasting process. We pride ourselves on the consistency of our roasted coffees. Small-batch craft roasting is our specialty.

The truth is in the cup!

Once you try our coffee, you will experience new dimensions of coffee that you did not know were possible. We believe outstanding coffee should be available at an affordable price.

Our Signature Roast - Max's Blend

Max's Blend is our signature roast. Designed to be bold, smokey, and complex, this is by far our most popular coffee and has been a staple of the Bay Area for over 30 years. Max's is on the heavy side of body with very little acidity. The cup starts with an immediate punch of smoke. As the smoke fades, dark chocolate notes appear with some dried fruit sweetness and notes of vanilla cream. The finish is very long, bold, and smokey with notes of peaty scotch.

December Coffee Of The Month: Peru Organic Cafe De Mujer

December 02, 2025

Our featured coffee for December is a vibrant and complex washed coffee from women coffee producers who work directly with the APROCCURMA group in northwest Peru. This coffee is bright with a balanced bitterness, creating a bold, medium-heavy bodied cup that tastes darker than its medium roast. The cup starts out with sweet milk chocolate and fruity persimmon notes with a touch of spice. In the middle, the bold bitterness of orange peel temporarily outshines the acidity in the first half of the cup. The bitterness fades into a long and dry finish with a complex melding of chocolate, orange peel, dried fruit, and spicy cinnamon.
