Huckleberry Roasters, headquartered in Denver, took the top prize for Roast’s 2022 Macro Roaster of the Year.

Coffee roasters—from at-home hobbyists to head roasters at large-scale coffee companies, and everyone in between—will require a different set of tools and equipment. There are some key items, however, that every professional roaster needs to do their job. In “The Coffee Roaster’s Tool Kit: Essential Equipment and Resources for Commercial Coffee Roasters,” author Kat Melheim offers a comprehensive guide outlining the tools that coffee roasters should consider including as part of their operation and training.
