Coffee Tao

Now that I’ve spent the last two months or so filling out forms for permits, purchasing a roasting machine, finishing the buildout for the roaster, and opening some coffee accounts, it’s time to make the formal announcement: WayOfCoffee.com will soon be changing to become the official site of our new roastery, Fremont Coffee Roasters.

Starting this blog was a way for me to stay connected to the coffee world after I left my roasting position at Greyfriar’s Coffee and Tea to take a dot-com job. Sooner than I imagined, I found myself in a position to open my own roastery here in Seattle without needing to leave my current job. There’s still a lot of work to do, but we will be formally opening Fremont Coffee Roasters for business very soon.

As a result, Coffee Tao will undergo a little makeover to become the site for Fremont Coffee Roasters. I’ll still blog about all things coffee–more frequently now that our spare time isn’t fully taken up by laying gas and electric lines, designing sales materials, etc.

So keep an eye on this space, as we’ll open the new site (and the business) very soon. I look forward to not only continuing to discuss coffee-related news and reviews, but also offering fine roasted single-origin coffees and pursuing my vision of offering a hand-selected array of direct trade estate coffees.

See you soon!
