Too late to make a private sale, I signed the contract with W3 Business Advisors yesterday, it should be listed with them on Wed or Thursday this week.

Hello Everyone! I am a long time member here, however I seem to have slipped in not coming back here very often lately. I have a business that I started almost 9 years ago, because of my love of coffee! I find myself in a position that I might need to sell it soon. Just personal reasons not...

Has anyone here had any experience either as seller or a buyer of an internet based coffee business? I own Our Coffee Barn LLC and I may be interested in selling it if the price is right.

I am going to buy a Micro Lot through Cafe Imports next year. They tell me it will be small enough for me to buy the entire microlot, 20 to 30 bags. I plan on going to origin with them next year in Jan Feb or March 2012 to get video and photos of the finca too! I have been a customer of Cafe...

I am very excited about this new payment method! They only charge a $0.25 fee per transaction. I installed it on my web site and I even had a Dwolla empoyee be the frst to order, just like they promised! So if you are looking for a cheaper way to accept money either online or at your shop...

Before you have a fire! I hope you don't ever have a fire but I believe it's a when and not if, unless your clean, clean,clean. Clean the roaster itself and chaf out daily. I give the ducts and chaf cyclone a monthly cleaning. Every other month I do the vertical exterior chimney too. I made...

I bet that at least a couple of you roasters have tried to build your own destoner. I built a mock up trial run destoner to prove my concept to myself. This time of year seems to get me thinking about building projects. I guess it's Cabin Fever? Anyway here is my main question: Has anyone...

Cafe Imports is where we get all of our coffee from and I highly recomend them! I just don't have the room in my small roasting barn for enough pallets of coffee to keep up the wholesale prices I did for a few years. Retail roasted business has grown a LOT and I see my sales of 50 lb bags of...

The roaster is sold.

I just embedded 2 videos that I now have on my You Tube channel ourcoffeebarn into the listing on our site. Please check them out to see a little more detail of the roaster. I can get more videos of it roasting when I get it vented outside again.

We are selling our Diedrich IR3 roaster. I just don't use it any more, since we bought a USRC 12 kilo roaster. It is listed on our web site for sale. http://ourcoffeebarn.com/estore/product_info.php?products_id=1951 Color is Black. No stirring vanes in the cooling tray, they really are not...

Alun has a point, safety is very important. When I watched mine brew the steam came last and this one is electric and shuts off automatically.

I just brewed a cup to have with a homemade oatmeal chocolatechip cookie, mmmmmmmmmmm tastie! I used a La Pavoni Caffe Mattina electric, very easy to use.

It's been a while since I have had my moka pots out, but my first guess is too fine of a grind. I may just have to go brew a cup of old fashioned, original espresso with one of my moka pots!

Nice, clean and fuctional.
