Green Coffee Beans

As we yo-yo in and out of lock down - our personal pick up option has been disabled again until we come out of Level 3.  The courier will still be coming for contactless pick ups.  Sorry for any inconvenience.

Browse and purchase green (unroasted) coffee beans, roasting, grinding and espresso machines, and accessories online. Items you add to your Shopping Basket will accrue in a list, from which you can also alter quantity, calculate freight, and check out your order.

All prices are GST inclusive.  We accept Visa & Mastercard (through PayPal), PayPal and Bank Deposit.


Unroasted coffee beans are generally known as "green".  They are small and hard.  They are at their best for up to 2 years after harvest - with the flavours gradually diminishing.

To ensure that your roasted coffee has the maximum flavour, purchase your coffee in the green state, store it in a dark, dry ventilated area (such as a kitchen pantry) and roast it yourself on demand so that you are drinking it when it is at its best.

Something to be aware of when purchasing green coffee beans, is that given most of them are processed in third world countries, you will find the odd stone, nail, ball bearing etc. in amongst the beans.  Most commercial roasters remove these items after roasting - as the destoning equipment is based on the weight of items and coffee is much lighter after being roasted.  We do a visual check when packaging the beans and we remove anything we see.  If we miss anything, we apologise and please understand that this is a normal element of the coffee world that most are unaware of.  It is not common, but it does happen.  Please check your coffee before it goes in the grinder.

Please see our range of coffees (including specialty coffee) from around the world below.  Each of our arabica coffees are suitable to be roasted and consumed on their own without any further blending required unless you so wish.

Most of our unroasted coffee beans can be purchased by the kg or by 400g (those that are one bag only can only be purchased by the kg).  You will notice that that while the list items all show the 1kg price - they are more expensive if you purchase less than a kg.  However, there are also price breaks at 4kg, 8kg and 20kg.

    Most of our coffees are available here from 400g - or you can use these items to purchase coffee in multiples of 400g (e.g. 1.2kg). If the coffee you are looking for is not in this category - it is likely because we have only been able to source one bag of this coffee (and accordingly little point in offering samplers).

Recommendations

If you are new to roasting, try one of the cheaper origins to practice on.  Once you have your beans roasted to the level you like, you may want to try some sampler packs to experiment with beans from different countries that may have been processed differently.

We will continue to expand our range of blends and single origin beans - so please give us your feedback.

We'd love to know what you like and what you would like to try.
