Customer Stories
Roasters everywhere are realizing the benefits that a Loring roaster brings to their business and love of coffee.
Tim Wendelboe
His name synonymous with flavor. Tim Wendelboe needed his next roaster to consistently hit profiles and give him both efficiency and ease of maintenance so he could churn those roasts out. His switch to a Loring S35 Kestrel was that and a whole lot more — all on 30% less gas.
Black Coffee Roasting Co.
In pursuit of environmental sustainability, Jim Chapman and Matt McQuilkin switched from their old roaster to a Loring S35 Kestrel, saving 66% on gas while doubling their production capacity.

Tinker Coffee
After switching to the S35 Kestrel, Tinker was able to maintain their output, while reducing the number of hours spent roasting. It also gave them the flexibility to roast bigger batches or easily add another day of roasting when needed.
Tasty Coffee
Tasty Coffee, who specializes in espresso roasts, was looking for a way to support the growth of their business while maintaining the level of consistency their customers demand. Loring was an ideal roaster for Tasty to help them roast their soft varieties of Brazil, grow their business, and maintain consistency.
Equator Coffee
Equator founders Helen Russell and Brooke McDonnell were on a values-driven path toward high-quality and ethically-sourced coffee from the start. When the business grew enough to require a higher capacity roaster, they needed a machine that would align with their environmental and impact goals, and Loring was the solution.
Underground Coffee
When Tim Briggs of Underground Coffee was ready to increase the capacity of his operation, he started the process of purchasing a larger roaster. Partway through the process, he realized the machine he was researching likely wouldn’t be able to achieve the profiles he’d developed for his Australian market. He opted to go with Loring instead and never looked back.
“Our coffee has become cleaner in the cup with the Loring.”
La Prima Espresso Co.
La Prima Espresso Co. is well-known for bringing Italian-style roasts to Pittsburgh. When they were ready for a new roaster, Loring not only offered them fuel savings and lower emissions, but resulted in significantly less time and money spent on routine maintenance and stack cleaning.
