Yes, blended coffees create anonymity about who, where, and when the coffees were produced. Off-The Grid Micro-Roaster pays homage to the dedication of each coffee producer by highlighting achievements of each producer they source by pledging the producers’ identity and passion is traceable. Off-The Grid Micro Roaster offers coffees in the manner they were designed by the coffee producers themselves.
Did you know coffee, like wine has distinct aromas, flavours, acidity and body dependent on production conditions?
For example, Off the Grid Cafe Solar harvested by the only female-managed coffee co-op in Honduras, is an exceptionally smooth coffee with a lingering mouthfeel and aromas of Green Apple, floral, and cantaloupe. The beans are shipped to Kyle, here in Kawartha Lakes and handcrafted into a delicious medium roast meant to bring out the flavours as they are intended. 


Where Can You Taste Off The Grid Coffees?

Want to enjoy a cup of true coffee? You can have Off The Grid International Coffees shipped directly to you each week, for as little as per cup with a Kawartha Mums Insider Group Deal.

 Kawartha Lakes Coffee Roaster - Research Ignites Passion

Kyle, through Off The Grid Micro-Roaster, passionately seeks ways to increase market access for coffee producers around the world. What ignited Kyle's coffee passion? In Kyle's Master of Science in Agricultural Development Economics thesis at University of Reading, he conducted coffee industry field research in Costa Rica, Canada, and the United Kingdom. His question? How viable is the direct trade model in the coffee industry?
In Costa Rica, over thirty producers and cooperatives in the regions of Palmares, Naranjo and TarrazĂș shared their experiences with Kyle giving him insights into their market barriers and opportunities. What did he find? Kyle unearthed what enabled and limited economic and social prosperity for coffee producers. Seeking possible solutions, Kyle examined whether farm-strategies for producing high quality coffee were a viable option. The results? Hearing hardships reported by most coffee producers in his travels, Kyle started his own roasting company - Off The Grid Micro-Roaster.

Kawartha Lakes Coffee Roaster -Aid Through Trade

 Kyle, a strong advocate for aid through trade, insists all coffees imported by Off the Grid Micro-Roaster be sourced on the conditions that producers will benefit economically, ecologically, and socially.
"The sustainability of the producer, is key to our success," emphasizes Kyle adding," To ensure we have access to specialty coffee from one season to the next, we must ensure the long-term success of our coffee producers."
Kyle, through Off The Grid Micro-Roaster, looks forward to forging long-term relationships with coffee producers around the world - coffee producers as fanatic about the quality of coffee as he is.

  5. Yes Robyn, I didn't know anything about Lake Kivu DR Congo until your comment sparked my curiosity.

    I read in Forbes, until co-operatives like Sopacdi, coffee farmers in this war torn area had to bribe police, and smuggle crops across Lake Kivu into Rwanda. Waves swamped farmers' boats and thousands died just trying to get to market.

    Now thanks to coffee roasters like Off The Grid, and coffee drinkers like yourself wisely choosing Sopacdi coffee, farmers are striving to rebuild their family's lives

    Cecile Batumike, a Sopacdi.cooperative association member shares:
    "With the income from the sale of our coffee, we are now able to send our children to school, we are able to feed our families and we are proud to know that our coffee is being sold in the international market,”

    Sure makes that morning cup of coffee a different experience!

  7. Thanks for entering Grandma Snyder!
    I didn't know anything at all about sustainable trade coffee until following Off the Grid Micro- Roaster's Facebook page. Kyle posts some really interesting information.
    For example, I was surprised to read the most important question to ask is is the coffee shade grown?
