Coffee for cafés, roasted down the road.
I’m Ash. I roast two coffees in Redditch, in small batches, when you need them. For cafés I take the roast a little further, so it holds up as espresso and with milk.
1kg minimum. From £32/kg. No VAT. Local drop or collect.
Simple supply, close enough to show up.

One house coffee
Volunteers and small bars do better with one way of making it. Right now that house coffee is Highlands, a washed Peru, roasted for espresso. Black Mountain, the chocolatey Brazilian, when I have the stock.

02
Roasted for your drop
1kg bags, whole bean unless you ask otherwise. I roast in Redditch for the drop, usually with a few days’ notice. I drop around Redditch, Studley, Bromsgrove, Alcester and South Birmingham, or you can collect. Weekly or fortnightly.

Training and kit advice
For a new site I can do a launch session with whoever is on the bar, and advise on a machine that actually fits how busy you are likely to be.
Price
These are the current kilo rates. No VAT. Invoice, seven days, bank transfer. If you are consistently over about 3kg a week, we can look at the price.
| Coffee | Use | Trade / kg |
|---|---|---|
| Highlands | House espresso (current) | £40 |
| Black Mountain | When in stock | £32 |
The Highlands on the shop is roasted for home filter. Café bags are roasted further, for espresso and milk.
Small on purpose
Atlas is one roaster and a 600g machine. That is the point: I can taste the batch, drop it to you, and answer the phone.
I can keep a café going through a busy week, and stay with you as things pick up. If the site ever needs more than one small roaster can do well, we can talk about that then.
The usual questions.
Can we try it before we order?
Yes, if you are nearby. I can bring coffee so you can taste it on your machine, or we can do a short session on the bar. That is often the best first step.
Do you grind it?
Café bags come whole bean, so you grind on site.
How does a drop work?
I roast for your day, then drop locally or you collect in Redditch. Weekly or fortnightly is typical. Local drop is by arrangement, not a courier run.
How do we order once we are set up?
A message or email is enough. There is no wholesale login. Tell me the kilos and the day you need it, and I roast for that drop.
Tell me about the site.
Café, church, office or deli: say where you are and what you are trying to do. I usually reply within 1-2 working days. If you are nearby I can bring coffee to try before you commit to a first order.
