I would like to get people’s thoughts about roasting facility setup in terms of layout, ideas about green bean stock, roasters, packaging areas etc. relative to each other and any other information that you think might be important. It would also be nice to know your opinion on the top three to five things someone should keep in mind as the most important when designing the layout. Thanks.

Couple things to think about, It really depends on how big your talking about 4k lbs a month or 40k lbs a month, ... these would be two completely different animals.

Ughhhh of top of my head, without that "size info"

Location for delivery
climate control for green
gas setup for roaster "depending on size" basically would you need to route new lines?
physical location of roaster, regarding temp stability i.e. not next to the open door in winter.

let me know your size ambitions and I can go more into detail
Hi,
John Larkin has an article on his website about first time set up and layout of the roastery. Check it out at www.johnlarkinandcompany.com

Best,
David
