Launching a coffee roasting business involves sourcing green beans and roasting them to perfection. Brian Abernathy, owner of Grumpy Goat Coffee, shares insights in this episode of "Small Biz in 15." Grumpy Goat Coffee focuses on single-origin, gourmet-grade, and traceable coffee beans. Unlike cafes, they're dedicated roasters.

Roasting coffee is like cooking; it involves drying, caramelizing, and controlling the roasting process. Training can be self-taught through reading, classes, or hands-on experience. Brian's journey began by identifying a gap in the market and his passion to bring good coffee to an underserved area. Roasting became his means to achieve this goal.

For beginners, a roaster and scale are essential equipment. Roaster size depends on your approach—small batch like Brian's or larger production. Costs vary, but a new one-kilogram roaster might be around $7,000 to $8,000. Used machines are available and can save costs. Companies like Mill City Roasters offer refurbished options.

Revenue potential varies with your target market. Direct-to-consumer sales yield higher margins but require building a customer base. Exploring commercial and wholesale opportunities offers greater volume growth. Price points depend on quality and market demand.

Starting a coffee roasting business involves finding your niche and aligning it with market gaps. Training and passion are crucial, and you can find used equipment or buy from manufacturers. While revenue varies, understanding market demands helps you plan your coffee roasting venture effectively.
