Air Roasted Coffee
At Canopy Point, we provide a unique and innovative roasting method, called “fluidized bed roasting” or “air roasting.” Our roasters use hot air to gently agitate the coffee beans and bring them to the precise degree of roast. Since they use electricity as a heat source, the roasted coffee flavors are not affected by the burnt and over-roasted flavors that are associated with traditional gas-fired roasters. This allows the subtle, sweet flavors of the coffees to naturally shine through while using a renewable energy source rather than fossil fuels.
Canopy Point has partnered with Air-Motion Roasters to roast our coffees in-house. The Air-Roasting process involves coffee beans being suspended and roasted on a bed of hot air. The vortex within the roasting chamber created by the air roasts each coffee bean at the same rate from all directions. The Air-Roaster also removes dust, chaff, and smoke from the roast chamber, ensuring a clean, pure, and balanced roast. With Air-Roasted Coffee, you taste the coffee, not the roaster.
