FireEscape Coffee Roasting


Picture
After 20 years of being a youth coffeehouse ministry, the FireEscape Coffeehouse is finally roasting our own coffee! Since retiring from the medical field Mark has been looking for something to keep him busy. A year after retirement he has gone from practicing medicine to practicing coffee roasting! Mark's longtime friend and master coffee roaster, Tom Wheat, has teamed up with the FireEscape to teach Mark how roast coffee. In April 2017 the FireEscape purchased a used Ambex coffee roaster from a young man in Kansas City. We have has such a great response to the flavor and taste of our coffee- we have decided to begin selling our beans! By taking on this business, we have been raising support to help offset the cost of the roaster and green coffee beans. If you would like to contribute to this endeavor, please click the "Donate Now" button below.

We currently have four roasts for sale:

100% Colombian

Picture
Colombia, known for its high quality coffee, is the second largest producer of coffee in the world and the largest producer of washed Arabica coffee. Colombia Excelso Huila comes from a group of small Rain Forest Alliance certified farms. This coffee has a well-balanced acidic taste, rich body, initial sweetness with slight notes of fruit, bittersweet, and a dark cocoa finish.

100% Guatemalan

Picture
Coffee is Guatemala's number one export contributing to the country's growing economic status. Because of its ideal geographic conditions, Huehuetenango is one of the best regions in Guatemala for great quality coffee production. Coffees from this region are exceptional coffees with sweet acidity, citrus and pleasant fruity notes, hints of strawberry and plum, solid body, balanced, chocolaty, and a clean aftertaste.

Decaf Colombian

Picture
These beans were processed using a natural decaffeination method. Many coffees are decaffeinated with the use of synthetic chemicals, which can negatively alter the taste of the coffee. However, by washing the beans using ethyl acetate derived from the natural fermentation of sugar cane, the chemical taste is avoided, and the flavors of this sweet Colombian bean are able to shine through.

FireEscape Blend

Picture
Every coffee roaster needs to have its own signature blend. We have created this house blend with our coffee drinkers in mind. This blend is a combination between Colombian and Guatemalan beans. It combines the best of the Guatemalan fruity tones with the Colombian chocolaty finish.
