Manage episode 504001262 series 3595907
On this DVC Alumni Podcast episode meet Greg Berkowitz (founder of Berks Beans) and Kiara as they dive into the craft and science of coffee roasting. Greg shares how a hobby roasted in a toaster oven during the pandemic turned into a fresh-roasted business, explains roast levels, processing methods, and why "born on" roast dates matter.
Hear about pour-over and cold brew techniques, sourcing beans, and how freshness and small-batch roasting set Berks Beans apart. A concise, friendly conversation for anyone who loves coffee or wants to start a food-focused small business.
