In this episode, Ryan talks in detail about how he selected his production roaster, how he goes about buying green coffee and selecting an importer, his portfolio and pricing policy.

We have a short chat about the advantages and complications of connecting a cafe with a roastery. Ryan reveals why he decided to start his venture in Richmond and we talk about his competition: Lamplighter Roasting Company, Blancharts.
