Solar Roast Coffee: The best coffee under the sun!
Our aroma roasting process makes our coffees the richest and most flavorful beans you will ever brew.
BRIEF HISTORY:
Solar Roast Coffee was started in 2004 by brothers Michael and David Hartkop. They constructed their first solar coffee roaster from an old satellite dish in their Southern Oregon backyard. It used 100 plastic mirrors to focus the sunlight to create heat, and a broccoli strainer, which served as a roasting drum. Dubbed the Helios 1, the roaster could produce 1 pound of coffee at a time.
When Michael and David tried the coffee they had made, they realized that it was not only excellent in flavor, but also the most Eco-friendly coffee ever created!
In 2007, Michael and David moved their business to one of the United State's top sunniest cities: Pueblo, Colorado. There they opened their first retail coffee shop, aptly named Solar Roast Coffee.
Fast forward to 2012 Solar Roast Coffee now roasts coffee with the Helios 5, a hybrid system, able to receive heat energy from solar photo-voltaic as well as from conventional natural gas. When not roasting coffee, the solar panels on the cafe's roof act to reduce the over all electrical consumption for the business. In this way, Solar Roast Coffee is able to make the fullest use of their solar energy falling on its downtown site.
As of September 2016, Solar Roast Coffee is actively selling coffee to over 350 wholesale customers found in 48 states!
