What We Do

Faqs about HOW DO WE SOURCE OUR COFFEE?

Our coffee is sourced from 3 local Australian wholesalers, who acquire premium quality beans from established regions and farms. We ensure that our coffee beans meet the expectations of taste and sustainability, whilst still supporting our local businesses. We are also partnering with famers in both Colombia and Brazil.

We have three suppliers that we typically deal with on a regular basis and we had to go through our own journey of finding the right suppliers to match our mission, vision, and sustainability goals. As we are a lower MOQ business compared to most we have had a bit more of a challenge sourcing such volumes.

Yet with the right doors opening and becoming available we were able to bridge those gaps in order to provide the product and packaging that we have today as well as the logo(s) and website layouts we have had over the years.

OUR ROASTING PROCESS faqs

At Sunrise Coffee Roasters, we both drum roast and air-roast depending on the final product.

Drum roasting is the traditional form of coffee roasting, which utilizes spinning the beans over an intense heat. The roasting profile determines the quality and flavour of the bean.

Air-roasting forgoes the need to first heat a roasting drum – saving on time and energy. As hot air circulates through the cylinder, the beans to allow for a clean, even roast.

What is the difference between cold brew and ice coffee?

Cold brew coffee the process where ground coffee brewed in cold water, then left to infuse for a specific period of time. This method removes some of the acidity and bitterness that is typical of a hot coffee drink. Additionally, cold brew coffee tends to hold a larger amount of caffeine than espresso based drinks.

Iced coffee is an espresso based drink (with added water and milk) retaining accustomed acidic and bitter flavors that come from heat being applied.

What is air-roasting?

Air-roasting is an innovative process (that started back in 1991 in Seattle) involving a current of hot air that is directly applied to a batch of coffee beans, achieving and maintaining a consistent roast profile.

Though this method is still relatively young in comparison to drum roasting that has been around for far longer. The IT behind the air-roasting process is exceptional and can produce a cup of exquisite coffee nonetheless.

We have been using this roasting process since 2018 and we have found that there are folks who enjoy the end results of our roasting method.
