Home coffee roasting allows you to safely and efficiently produce the freshest coffee beans giving you the most flavorful cup of coffee you will ever experience. It easy, economical and exciting. 

We are a family-owned, USA-based wholesaler and direct internet retailer of easy-to-use home coffee roasting equipment located in Park City, Utah and the largest and oldest US seller of affordable, efficient and safe home coffee roasters since 1996.

The company consists of my brother, Tim is the designer of the roasters and founder of FRCR, manages wholesale sales and serves as managing partner; Tim's daughter Adrienne, manages the Bean Store and the main office; and myself, Steve, managing direct retail sales.

Tim's background includes World Cup and professional alpine ski racer, consultant for various ski industry equipment manufacturers, original partner in Reflex Mountain Bikes.

I have been in the coffee business for 20+ years as owner and operator of a wholesale/retail coffee roasting business and owner/manager of a string of coffee shops in northern New England, in addition to importing and retail marketing of premium whole leaf teas and in house production of self-branded teabags .  

We offer 3 models at the moment; the SR300, SR500 which are of our own design and manufacture, and the GENE CAFE from our Korean partner, Genesis.

The Fresh Roast Model SR500

The Genesis Gene Cafe

The SR300 is the entry level roaster. The operator has no control over the default fan and temperature controls, but has the ability to end the roast and begin cool down cycle. It roasts 4-5 ounces of green raw beans.

The SR500 roasts the same capacity, but allows the operator to control the fan speed and has 3 temperature settings which can be changed at any time during the roast.

The Genesis Gene Cafe offers the same manual controls as the SR500 but with a much larger roast capacity of 8 ounces of green beans.
