We can all agree, making a fantastic cup of coffee starts with good coffee beans, correct? But who wants to spend $25 for a bag for good specialty coffee, if they don’t have to?

I’m Rob Dionne, founder of OCD Coffee Club and I was just like you. I frequented all the top coffee shops in Los Angeles, buying $6 cups of pour over coffee, as well as bags of roasted specialty coffee beans for upwards of $25 for 12oz. I was going broke!

While I don’t mind paying for quality coffee, I do mind wasting my money, if it’s on something I can teach myself how to do.

This class will teach you the simple process of buying green unroasted coffee beans and how to simply roast them yourself at home in the comfort of your own kitchen. #homeroasting

Best part is, it’ll only take you 10 to 20 minutes to roast enough coffee to last you for a couple weeks, up to a month.

In this class you’ll learn:

The equipment will you need to roast coffee at home (You probably have these already)
Best places to source and buy your green coffee from on the internet
Coffee roaster terminology, so you know more about coffee than 99% of people
Roasting light, medium and dark roast techniques
Proper ways to store your coffee
What you’ll need to brew a perfect cup of coffee and proper coffee to water ratios

For your class project, you’ll roast and share your experience in the class project gallery below.

Materials You’ll Need:

Sheet Pan
Colander
Digital Scale
StoveTop Popcorn Popper
Thermometer Laser (optional)

Once you’ve completed your first roast, share your experience with me!

A little more about me:

I now own a subscription coffee company and teach people how to roast coffee on a 2kg commercial roaster. OCD Coffee Club also does pop up venues in Los Angeles, serving brewed coffee, as well as roasted coffee beans. Over the last 3 years, I’ve turned my passion for coffee into a business that continues to grow.

Thank you for taking the time to take my class! I look forward to hearing from you.
