The roastery

Roasting in Portland since 2019.

First Crack Coffee Roasters opened at 412 Foundry Lane, Portland, Oregon, with three lots and a week short enough to write on a wall. The business has not grown out of that shape, and it was never meant to.

The schedule is the product. We roast on Tuesday and Thursday, ship inside 48 hours of the drum, and open the café from Wednesday through Sunday. On Saturday morning the cupping table is set out and anyone can sit down at it. Everything else we could tell you is an elevation, a gram, or a temperature — and those are all published on the beans page.

The roastery cafe in morning window light: a steel counter, empty stools, and the drum roaster standing at the back of the room.
