Red Hook shared roastery where brands rent half-day slots on a Loring.
Steve Mierisch, from a coffee-growing family, set up a shared roastery in a 19th-century warehouse in Red Hook, Brooklyn, where other brands rent roasting time by the half-day. A Loring SmartRoast and a Diedrich that was 20 years old in 2013 share the ground floor with a QC lab and cupping area.
Joe and Ninth Street Espresso were among its highest-profile clients in 2013, and Third Rail's espresso is a custom blend roasted here.
