Here is what roasters have to say, in their own words.

Champion City Roasters: Kenny’s Sivetz Story

I started roasting at home on a popcorn popper and then a Nucleus Link. I really enjoyed the cleaner flavors that air roasting could provide.

I had looked at Sivetz before, but I needed something electric and in my price range. I first found Peachey through a Facebook fluid-bed roasting group. When I saw the collaboration with Sivetz, I was really stoked. I liked the combination of fluid-bed roasting, internal temperature controls and the automatic door-dump cooling system.

The roaster has been working well for me. I’ve been roasting on it regularly since I got it and selling coffee from those batches, with a lot of great feedback from customers.

Corwin has been easy to work with from the start. I appreciated the updates while the machine was being built, the help getting that first batch roasted, and the follow-up on the cooling tray, including sending out the updated parts that were needed.

Kojo Roastery: Harley’s Roasting Story

Coffee roasting started as a hobby for me and slowly, organically grew into a business. My wife, Karalee, and I started Kojo Roastery in Stacyville, Iowa, in 2019. Between us, we handle just about everything, from roasting and packaging to design and shipping.

We chose Sivetz because of its ability to repeat roasts consistently. The array of sensors and the way the machine uses them were a big part of that decision.

We’re using the Sivetz electric air roaster for our more exotic and experimental coffees, alongside our Giesen for the more classic profiles. It gives us another way to explore clarity, fruit character, and different processing styles.

We really appreciate the consistency we’re getting from the Sivetz. It also seems very difficult to scorch or tip the beans, which has been another thing we like about it.
