An Online Community-Building and Training Event for Craft Coffee Roasters, Presented by Roast Magazine

Diedrich Roasters and Firedancer Coffee Consultants are proud to announce a new digital one-day educational and social event called the Coffee Roasting Forum, to be held May 20, 2021. The event will offer educational sessions, an online cupping and networking opportunities for the coffee roasting community.

Lectures will include The Chemistry of Coffee, Exploring Roast Profiles of Different Processing Methods, Covid-19 and the Specialty Coffee Chain, and a session on the state of the coffee industry presented by Ric Rhinehart, former executive director of the Specialty Coffee Association.

According to Karl Schmidt, CEO of Diedrich Roasters, “Diedrich Roasters and Firedancer Consulting decided to host the online event to connect the coffee industry. The last year has been a challenging time for our industry with the interruption of Covid-19. In order to communicate and share ideas with our customers and coffee enthusiasts, we had to find different ways and approaches to facilitate and continue the conversation through different channels. Diedrich has chosen this venue to connect and collaborate with some of our colleagues and partners in the industry to share and address some of the important topics and questions we face as a community.”
