Event Overview
The weather's cooling and the leaves are turning, and there's no better time for ... coffee!
Buzz: Artisanal Coffee Roaster owner Stefan Hersh takes participants behind the scenes for an unvarnished look at the craft coffee roasting process.
This Dabble workshop will include brief descriptions of the processes of sourcing and roasting specialty coffee and will end with a couple of short demonstrations to give students a behind-the-scenes look at the roasting process from start to finish.
The class will take place in the Buzz warehouse in downtown Chicago, and bring along some extra cash because after class you'll have the opportunity to purchase the coffee you watched being roasted right before your eyes. It doesn't get fresher than that, folks!

Stefan was clearly passionate about his coffee roasting craft. He opened the doors to his roasting facility for the first time to the public and gave us a tutorial and demonstration of what it takes to roast two, 12 pound batches of coffee. Watching him adjust the air and gas of his roaster while logging notes and answering our questions was very fascinating to experience.. Following the class Stefan gave each of us some of the fresh roasted beans which I can't wait to try. This was a great class all around and made me appreciate coffee even more than I already do.
