Welcome to Roasting Rabbi Coffee

We’re a specialty coffee roaster that inspires elevation in each batch to be shared on special days…and every day. Our slogan: Releasing the Holy Spark in Each Bean!

We feature:

At Roasting Rabbi Coffee, we believe:

  • Great coffee can do social good

  • No one should have to sacrifice taste or values

  • People-to-people partnerships and building a just world

Our special 12-ounce bags have one-way valves preserving freshness to ensure your coffee is as good as the day it was carefully roasted. Our coffees are never flavored although we note "hints" of flavors similar to how wine is described. 

NOTE TO OUR CUSTOMERS:

Roasting Rabbi Coffee is suspending all new orders effective Mon 6/24 as we wind down roasting and selling operations…at least for now (see full story here).

If you’d like to place an order, please be patient as we first work to fulfill existing ones. We will update this space as soon as possible.

Thanks for your understanding, and for supporting Roasting Rabbi Coffee.

About Us

 

Roasting Rabbi Coffee founder, Rabbi Micah Becker-Klein, has been studying Jewish attitudes to food and diet as well as artisanal Kosher food since 2000.

Since then, Micah has worked, taught, and published articles on contemporary approaches to sustainable food sources, hands-on cooking experiences, kosher slaughter, and agricultural and farming practices in combination with Jewish values. As a mashgiach ("kosher certifier"), he has been active “on the farm” as well as supporting the Kosher food approaches and education to various organizations.

Send a note to Micah

 

Having visited coffee farms in Costa Rica and Tanzania, Micah began to listen to the stories of the people who worked, loved and shared in the process of creating great farms and cooperative coffees.

But not all fairly traded and organic coffees tasted good. Through these methods, Micah was still disappointed to find lower quality coffee on the market. He was inspired to begin to roast coffee on his own with help from niche taste buds among colleagues and friends in interfaith, international, and various religious settings.

As the news began to brew and the story began to percolate, Roasting Rabbi Coffee was born.

Seeking to connect the farmers and workers to the processing, importing, and finally to roasting, Micah studied ways to create flavor profiles and roasting approaches to elevate the potential in each bean. Along the way, he learned of the history of coffee consumption as it made its way to the western world in the 15th century.

Through all walks of life and a variety of religious approaches—including Christian, Jewish, Muslim, Sikh, Unitarian, and Hindu—Micah believes that a good cup of coffee can help bring people closer together to share their ideas, concerns, and to find love together.

Coffee is a great way to create community, heighten learning and spirit, and create community conversations that connect people with whom we share this world. From farmer to processor to roaster to your cup—Micah understands the interconnectivity and potential to work to a higher level with Roasting Rabbi Coffee.
