  • How should I roast Thai green coffee beans?

    Thai green coffee responds well to light to medium roasts. These levels help preserve delicate flavours like florals and soft fruit, while still developing sweetness and balance. There’s no one right answer - every Thai lot is different - so experiment and taste as you go. That’s part of the fun of home roasting.

  • What is the flavour profile of Thai coffee?

    Thai coffee is smooth and well-rounded, often showing notes of chocolate, caramel, citrus and subtle florals like orange blossom. You’ll usually find medium acidity and a clean finish. These flavours are shaped by Thailand’s mountain farms and varied microclimates, especially in the north.

  • How can I roast green coffee beans at home?

    You don’t need fancy kit to get started. Use a stovetop popcorn maker, oven or small home roaster. Preheat, add your green beans, and keep them moving for even roasting. Listen for the first and second cracks — these help you judge roast level. Lighter roasts bring out brightness and fruit, darker ones give you depth and body. Once roasted, cool your beans quickly to lock in flavour. Want a step-by-step guide? Read our blog: How to start roasting coffee at home: all your questions answered!
