Loading Better Beans…
Extracto Coffee Roasters was established in 2006 by Christopher Brady in Portland, Oregon with a simple but powerful mission: to help customers love their coffee as much as they do. The company takes a meticulous approach to coffee, starting with careful curation of their beans. They taste numerous coffees from producers around the world, selecting only those that resonate with them and make them happy to drink. What sets Extracto apart is their hands-on, small-batch roasting approach. They use a beloved 1951 cast iron Probat roaster to "tune in" each coffee, a process that involves carefully monitoring the beans through smell, sight, and taste until they reach exactly the right profile. This vintage roaster, a UG22 Probat, is a centerpiece of their operation and represents their commitment to traditional roasting methods. The company offers a wide selection of coffees, from beans with classic profiles to more unique and distinctive varieties. Their approach to roasting is nuanced – they don't roast dark, they don't roast light. Instead, they focus on the subtleties within each crop, recognizing that each bean has a unique flavor that deserves a focused approach. Extracto's philosophy centers on quality throughout the supply chain. They care about the farms, harvesters, regions, growing and processing conditions – all the factors that combine to create exceptional flavor. They believe these elements matter and should matter to their customers as well. Beyond retail operations, Extracto offers wholesale programs for businesses interested in adding their coffee to their offerings. They provide assistance with brewing equipment and training to ensure their partners serve their coffee at its best. Operating from their location on NE Killingsworth Street in Portland, Extracto has become a fixture in the local coffee scene. They maintain a commitment to the Portland community, offering free local delivery throughout most of the Portland area. Their café is open every day from 7am to 2pm, serving as a gathering place for coffee enthusiasts.
