Brooklyn Roasting Company

Roaster · Since 2009

Brooklyn roaster in a 1900 Navy Yard power plant, 90% Fair Trade.

Former Brooklyn Brewery partner Jim Munson started the company in a Williamsburg loft in 2009 with chief roaster Michael Pollack. Roasting now happens in Building 123 at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, a former power plant and the yard's first LEED-certified building.

Fuel-efficient Loring Peregrine and Kestrel roasters produce the coffees, and 90% of them are Fair Trade certified. Beans ship in steel tins.​⁠​​​⁠⁠​​⁠​​⁠​​⁠​⁠​​⁠⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​​​⁠​​​⁠​⁠​⁠​⁠​​⁠​
