Wondering where it all began?

BrownDog Roasting was dreamed up four years ago when I realized my love of coffee ran much deeper than just being a consumer.  As a professional athlete I traveled around the world often and found myself always looking for high quality and fresh coffee from the local shops.  I began researching everything I could about coffee beans: coffee farms, harvesting, locations, and of course the roasting process. I was intrigued and on a mission to roast my own coffee at home.  I purchased my first roaster, a Kaldi, which was manual and used an open flame.  I learned quickly how much attention to detail a roaster needs and I continued to learn and practice.  I have since upgraded to the Bullet, which is what I use today to roast the freshest beans to give you the highest quality and most flavorful coffee which can turn any person into a coffee lover.
