Great
coffee begins with top quality beans roasted to the level that brings out
the best characteristics of a particular origin. Here, a batch of freshly
roasted beans drop into the cooling tray of our Ambex drum roaster.
We proudly bring the time honored tradition of roasting coffee here to the
Ruby Mountains, and welcome coffee lovers here in Elko, Nevada and around
the world to share the roasted selections presented here. All roasting is
done locally, and all grinding is done to order. None fresher!

| How
the Grind Affects the Brew |
The
brew cycle, the length of time water interacts with coffee grounds, differs
by brewing method. Espresso machines, that brew coffee in seconds, have
the shortest brewing cycles, while percolators, may have brew cycles of
8 or more minutes. Drip makers fall between the two extremes at 4 - 6 minutes.
Different grinds are necessary to accommodate different brew cycles because
the rate at which water extracts coffee’s compounds largely depends on the
size of the coffee particles — coarse grinds expose less of the bean’s surface
area so water takes longer to penetrate the bean fiber and extract its flavoring
components. [ learn
