Past Crop Profiling - April 11th

Instructors: Sarah Cline Parker & Trevor Jermasek

Join us at Tailwind Roasting Collaborative for a 2.5-hour, hands-on cupping and blending workshop.

This workshop provides roasters with practical strategies for managing costs by utilizing past crop coffees without compromising flavor quality. Attendees will explore blending methods to balance past and fresh crop coffees, aiming to retain a balanced flavor profile that masks any age-related changes. Through hands-on tasting, participants will experiment with various blending ratios and roast profiles, discovering effective ways to maintain quality and consistency. The session will also cover cost analysis techniques, allowing attendees to calculate the financial benefits of incorporating past crop coffees in their offerings, ultimately maximizing profitability and minimizing waste. Every coffee deserves a loving home.

Sarah & Trevor will be teaching this exact workshop at SCA Expo in April. If you can’t make it to Expo in Houston this year, now is a great opportunity to take this course.
