Air Roasted For Smooth Flavor

Roasts and Ships Within Days

Dark chocolate and molasses meet like dusk meeting candlelight—steady, grounded, and quietly bold. Sweater Weather was made for the shift in air, that first crisp morning that feels like permission to slow down. The cup opens rich and smooth, with dried fig adding a touch of warmth and natural sweetness beneath the depth.

This medium-dark roast carries weight without heaviness—comforting, calm, and a little indulgent. It’s the kind of blend that makes you pause between sips, not because you have to, but because you want to. There’s balance here: depth without bitterness, sweetness without fuss.

Limited for fall, but made to linger. The kind of coffee that makes you look forward to the chill in the air.

Air roasting uses clean, hot air to roast each coffee bean evenly—resulting in a smoother, cleaner flavor without the bitterness or burnt taste you get from traditional drum roasting. Because the beans don’t sit on hot metal, there's no smoky aftertaste—just pure, nuanced notes. It’s a gentler process that lets the bean’s true character shine.

About the Producer

In Sumatra’s rain-heavy air, coffee ripens under clouds that never quite clear. Farmers move between storms, practicing giling basah the way their parents did — hulling soft parchment by hand before the sun burns away the last trace of morning mist. The earth here is volcanic, restless, and generous; it leaves its signature in every cup, a low hum of depth and heat.

Across the sea in Papua New Guinea, mountains rise out of jungle like green cathedrals. Families carry woven bags of cherries down footpaths slick with moss, stopping at cool riverbanks to wash and sort the day’s harvest. Their small lots ferment slow and bright, the work steady, deliberate — the rhythm of people who still measure time by rainfall and ripening fruit.

Two origins, bound by patience and rain. One gives weight, the other light. Together they become something you feel more than taste — a kind of warmth that lingers, the way autumn sunlight finds your sleeve on a cold morning.

Frequently Asked Questions

It’s all in the roast. While most coffee is drum-roasted, which means the beans are scorched as they come in contact with the hot sides of the metal drum. In contrast, we use superheated air for heat transfer—a method used by less than 1% of roasters worldwide. It delivers smoother, more balanced flavor with zero burnt bitterness.

Our air-roasting process reduces acidity and eliminates that harsh, burnt bitterness found in most coffees. That means no gut-bomb effect, no acid reflux, and no regret after your second cup. Even customers who’ve sworn off coffee come back for Ember.

Crazy fresh. We roast in small batches right here in Minnesota and ship quickly—so your beans haven’t been sitting on a shelf for months losing flavor. You’ll taste the difference the moment you open the bag. Plus we stamp our bags with the roast date, not the "best buy" date. Note: Most coffees actually improve in taste in the two weeks following its roast date. If you receive a bag that was roasted 7-10 days from your date of order, we've likely held it to allow for off-gassing and maximum flavor.

We believe great coffee starts at the source. That’s why we build direct trade relationships with farmers who care as much as we do. Better pay for them, better beans for you, and a whole lot more integrity in your cup.

Yes, yes, and yes. Whether you’re team drip, AeroPress, Chemex, or full-on espresso, Ember’s roasts are engineered to perform across all brew methods without losing flavor, depth, or smoothness.

Because once you taste coffee that’s roasted right, sourced right, and doesn’t wreck your stomach… it’s game over for the grocery store brands and chain coffee shops. Ember becomes the new standard.

Specialty-Grade Coffee, Delicious Taste

We only roast the top 5% of beans in the world—carefully selected for clarity, character, and consistency. When you start with exceptional quality, you don't need shortcuts. Every cup begins with a promise: good beans, done right.

We partner with producers who prioritize fair wages, sustainable practices, and long-term relationships. From seed to sip, this coffee is as good for the growers as it is for you. Because doing it right means doing it together.

Air roasting unlocks the bean’s full aroma and complexity—think vibrant notes that actually reflect the origin. It’s a cleaner, more expressive cup that delights your senses from the first inhale to the last warm sip—so you actually taste the coffee's origin and not just the burntness of the roaster drum.

Most roasters use scorching-hot drums that can leave bitter, smoky notes. We air roast with precision and patience—preserving delicate flavors and skipping the scorch. The result? Coffee that’s smooth, never harsh, and always easy on your taste buds.

Air roasting reduces acidity and surface oils, making Ember coffee gentler on digestion. It’s a clean, smooth experience—even black—that doesn’t leave you with jitters or heartburn. Just calm energy and a ritual you can feel good about.

Science-Backed Ingredients

We only roast Arabica beans that score 82+ on the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) scale—a mark of exceptional flavor, cleanliness, and complexity. Grown at higher elevations and harvested by hand, these beans mature slower, developing deeper sweetness, brighter notes, and a more layered cup. It’s the top 5% of coffee in the world—and you’ll taste why.

Every lot we roast meets SCA’s rigorous grading system, which evaluates 10 key attributes—like aroma, acidity, balance, and aftertaste. Each batch is cupped, scored, and traceable, ensuring not just quality, but integrity at every step. This isn't marketing fluff—it’s a globally respected benchmark for true specialty coffee. We source, roast, and brew with purpose—so you get a cup you can count on.

Clean beans matter. All Ember Coffee is tested and certified mold-free, ensuring a healthier cup without hidden contaminants. Lower-quality coffees often carry higher risks of mold and mycotoxins due to poor storage or processing. We hold every batch to higher standards—because you deserve a cup that’s as pure as it is delicious.
