Modern Manufacturing Techniques

Batch roasted and packaged with minimal air contact. Let’s just say we’re a little fanatical about freshness.

The best way to guarantee freshness is to remove anything that stands in the way. Yes, including oxygen. Batch Roasting on multiple custom-built Probat R1000 roasters.

Pre-Roast and Post Roast Blending options.
Facility-wide enclosed conveyance systems.
Obsessive to details, every batch of Apffels Coffee passes nearly 50 tests before final approval.

System Control

Investments in integrated computer systems that monitor and control nearly all aspects of the manufacturing process, allowing for remarkable results with consistently delicious products.
This efficiency offers shorter lead times and fresher product.

Enclosed Conveyance

Slow-running, dust-free conveyors carefully convey the friable roasted beans and ground coffee without breaking the beans or stratifying the grounds.
And because of how the conveyors move material through the enclosed tubes, they also reduce maintenance and cleaning requirements and improve production efficiency and product quality.

Conveyors are installed from “green” beans to mixer, mixer to roaster, roaster to de-gassing silos, to the grinders, flavoring & finally to packaging.

Ground to Perfection

Our liquid-cooled grinding technology protects the freshly roasted coffees delicate volatile aromas and our state-of-the-art grinders provide precise particle size for the perfect grind.
