We are Refining our Organic Practices

We are Refining our Organic Practices - Impact Roasters

At Impact Roasters, our commitment to ethically sourced, high-quality coffee has always been at the heart of what we do. Many of our customers love our organic coffee selections from Ethiopia. However, we’ve recently made an important change: we will no longer carry official organic certification for these coffees. 

Why the Change?

The decision didn’t come lightly. The process of obtaining and maintaining organic certification has become increasingly bureaucratic and time-consuming. Additionally, we can no longer import organic-certified beans directly from the farmers we collaborate with. Rather than diverting our attention to lengthy paperwork, we’ve chosen to focus on what really matters—ensuring that the coffee you love is produced sustainably, responsibly, and with care.

The Great News!

Even though we’ve dropped the official certification, all of our Ethiopian coffees remain organic in practice! The farmers we work with have always embraced traditional farming methods that prioritize environmental stewardship and avoid harmful chemicals. So while the label might be missing, rest assured that the same top-quality coffee and commitment to responsible sourcing remain intact.

The Ultimate Guide to Coffee Grind Sizes: How to Choose the Right Grind for Your Brewing Method

april 25, 2023

A perfect cup of coffee starts with the right grind size, which influences the extraction rate and flavor profile. Using the wrong grind size can lead to under-extraction, resulting in a weak and sour taste, or over-extraction, causing bitterness. Understanding the relationship between grind size and brewing method is essential. Coarse grinds work best for French press, medium-coarse for pour-over, medium for filter coffee, and fine grinds for espresso. However, adjustments may be needed based on equipment and bean type, particularly when brewing with Ethiopian beans. Experimenting will help you find the ideal balance for a flavorful cup.
