Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) Coffee Skills Program - Roasting Intermediate

The Roasting Intermediate course builds upon the introductory concepts of the Foundation course.

It is ideal for someone who has roasting experience and desires to gain a deeper understanding of the roast profile, how the profile relates to color, the relationship between roast profile and sensory expression, and the impact of development time.
