Are you going to SCA Expo in Chicago? Check out Mike Ebert's class and his lecture.
LECTURE - Food Safety - FDA vs. 3rd Party Audits
He will discuss what roasters have to do for FDA compliance, and why they might go further and obtain a 3rd party food safety audit. He will also review what steps you need to take to pass a 3rd party audit - whether a basic GMP, HACCP, Costco, SQF, or other audit.
CLASS - Roast Profiling:
This workshop will enable a roaster to better define and apply the practice of profile roasting. Workshop participants will learn common terminology, best practices, and documentation. Participants will cup the same coffee roasted differently and discuss how different approaches can impact the sensory experience of a given coffee. This workshop will help roasters understand how to apply roasting theory and alter profile recipes to dial in their desired levels of acidity, sweetness, body, and balance.
