Apffels Brand Commercial Services Operations Contact Us Shop Amazon Shop Apffels Wholesale login The Process “Success is a process, a quality of mind and way of being, an outgoing affirmation of life.” Alex Noble As master blenders, we understand the need to focus on the farmers as well as a superior bean. This approach allows us to deliver consistent quality, the best blends, and rich flavor, year after year. Sampling: Before we purchase, we take samples from select growers and test for freshness, optimum roasting profile, and finally taste. We evaluate at every stage, ensuring quality and consistency. Cupping: Our experienced cuppers and Licensed Q Graders have over 60 years of combined experience in sensory evaluation of coffee: we follow SCA Standards and Protocols to objectively rate every green lot, batch roast, and cup to exacting standards. Purchasing: Once coffee samples are approved, the coffee is purchased and shipped to our facility in Los Angeles. Delivery to our facility: Upon arrival, the green coffee is inspected and sampled (sample roasts and cupping) and after approval, it is stored in our climate-controlled warehouse until it's roasted. Roasting: Apffels roasts in a modern, state-of-the-art facility that was designed by our coffee experts and their century of experience. Artisan craftsmanship and modern, computerized technology ensure that each roast delivers the quality and consistency of the most flavorful coffees in the world. Quality Control: Apffels quality assurance lab is filled with equipment for measuring everything regarding the production of coffee – from moisture content, to roast color, to measuring oxygen levels in our packaging; all to ensure quality in every cup. Packaging: Directly from roasting, the beans are sent through air-tight conveyor tubes to the automated packaging equipment. The coffee is nitrogen flushed as it is packaged and sealed – which maintains freshness until opened. We can produce fractional and valve bag packages from one ounce to five pounds. Cupping (again): After the coffee is packed and ready for shipment, it's cupped again. Our final check before it's shipped to customers. “While traveling in Orange County California, we had Apffels Coffee at a restaurant and Loved It!” Certifications Name * First Name Last Name Email * Phone * (###) ### #### Subject * Message * 12115 Pacific Street, Santa Fe Springs, CA, 90670 | 562-309-0400 Privacy Policy I Terms & Conditions I Photo Credit By using this website, you agree to our use of cookies.
