WEEKLY DEAL: new roaster

VCC is very excited to announce the new roaster we have been talking about so much is now up and running! Paul Maxwell (left) from US roasters came by the roastery on Monday and trained Erin, Melissa (bottom), and John on the new machine. This is perfect time for you to come into the roastery and see it in action. In fact, if you come and do a tour of the new roaster this week you will recieve a FREE 2oz. sample pack of your choice that was probably roasted from that exact roaster. Please bear with us for a couple weeks as we are still experimenting with the roaster's capabilities. But we'd love to have you come and visit! You can call (865.681.0517) or email us at mary@viennacoffeecompany.com if you are interested in a tour!

New roaster is so close we can taste it... er smell it...

We are getting everything set up: smoke stack, gas, electricity, conveyor, etc. There's a lot of work that goes into setting up a new 35 kilo roaster. We are still very excited to have it finally up and running. We are now just putting up the final touches onto the roaster, and by the first of February it will be fully functioning! We'd love to have you come and visit and see the new capabilities. Here are some pictures to tide you over until you see the real deal at the roastery.

IT'S HERE! 35 kilo roaster

WOW! This has already been an eventful week for Vienna Coffee Company and it is only Wednesday; two new babies yesterday and a new 35 kilo roaster this morning.

Mid morning, 3 large boxes were transported into the VCC roastery carrying pieces of our new roaster ready for assembly. With an excited buzz in the air, John started taking out each part delicately piece by piece. As he pried the sides off of the boxes his eyes lit up and his mouth was drawn up in a huge grin like that of a young boy opening his gifts. The anticipation of this monster machine (in comparison to our current roaster) has been mounting for weeks, and thank goodness it has finally arrived.

Unfortunately, due to the busyness of this season, we will not have the roaster in working condition until after the holiday season, but we will keep you posted as soon as it is. We'd love to have you tour the roaster as soon as we have it up!
