It comes as a shock to most in the beginning of their business journey that, to start a coffee roasting company, you need not one, but TWO coffee roasters. Our recent blog entry breaks down this necessity ⤵️ bellwethercoffee.com/blog/wh… #coffee #business #coffeeshop #coffeeroasters

Gas-powered coffee roasters may not be possible in the future. 20+ cities have some type of natural gas ban (more on the way). That means no new gas lines for traditional gas-powered roasters. This will fundamentally change the industry. A thread 👇 #coffee #specialtycoffee

Most commercial coffee roasters run on natural gas. It's the primary heating mechanism. No new gas lines = no new gas-powered coffee roasters. Gas bans are a good first-step in "the electrification of everything", but the coffee industry will have to make serious changes.

The impact is already here for roasters, and quickly expanding. In many cities, if you want to open a new roastery with a gas-powered roaster, you can't. Here's how coffee roasters can adapt: bellwethercoffee.com/future-…
