It is inspiring to serve the global coffee community while also surrounded by such thriving\u00a0local<\/em>\u00a0coffee scenes at each of our offices. For example, just one\u00a0Paul Bunyan<\/a>\u2013size hop-skip-and-jump down the road from our North American headquarters in Minneapolis, you will find an oasis of roasting experts at\u00a0Mill City Roasters<\/a>.<\/p>\n We have had the privilege of collaborating with the Mill City team since 2012 with educational events and presentations, and acting as a side-kick to their in-depth \u201cRoasting School\u201d video series, cohosted, and hosted by Cafe Imports\u2019 education director Joe Marrocco<\/a>. Together, and along with a gamut of master roasters, we are proud to share in the expanding amount of open source roasting knowledge and experience.<\/p>\n Mill City Roasters offers some of the highest quality on-site roasting training classes, and offers them year-round. We share Mill City\u2019s desire to help teach roasters how to hone their craft and explore the world of coffee, which is why:<\/p>\n We now offer a free green-coffee and cupping class, as well as an introduction to green-coffee sourcing, in conjunction with any coffee-roaster training hosted by Mill City Roasters.<\/strong><\/p>\n
