The Giesen Roastcast Giesen Coffee Roasters

In this final episode of season 2 of the Giesen Roastcast, our host Filip will talk with Rubens Gardelli on how to become a good roaster. Rubens is the definition of the self-made man, and it is not the pursuit of sales or fame, but the passion and curiosity that has driven his coffee company from the ground up. He is the founder and head-roaster of Gardelli specialty coffee and roasting Champion. Rubens will take you through his learning process and what he thinks are essential steps to becoming a good roaster. Enjoy!

In this weeks podcast Filip invited Joanna Alm to talk about the subject ‘Women in roasting’. Joanna is the Managing Director of Drop Coffee Roasters, and on the Board of Directors of the Specialty Coffee Association. Enjoy!

Roasting safety is one of the most overlooked, yet most important factor in coffee roasting. What to do when a fire breaks out? How do you keep everyone in your roastery calm and collected during panic? Do you have an evacuation plan that still is relevant? Budha knows what to do. He owns his own roastery in Sweden and he takes precautions that not everyone would think of doing. Our host Filip will ask him all about it and share also his thoughts about roasting safety!

Today's episode is shining a light on roasting defects. Filip briefly talked about roasting defects in the episode with Samo Smrke, but we felt that people would love to know more about it. In this episode, Filip is interviewing Jesper Alstrup. Jesper is fairly young, but don't underestimate the knowledge he possesses. He is a student who’s been studying roasting defects, so if there is someone who knows what a roasting defect is, he is the man for you.
