Event Size: 30 / all ages

This program is sponsored by the Dan Curll Community Programs Fund.

Mill some coffee at the mill! Drop by this informal coffee hour at Chase’s Mill for a cup of coffee from East Alstead Roasting Co. Hand grind your own beans with an old-fashioned coffee mill. Roaster Owen will be on hand to answer questions about his process and philosophy of coffee. Mill around and chat with your neighbors (pun intended). You are encouraged to bring your own cup. In addition to conversation, we’ll have some baked goods to share, plus tea for non-coffee drinkers!

Owen Miller started the East Alstead Roasting Company in 2020. He focuses on light roasts and single-origin coffees because he wants to highlight the delicious uniqueness of high-quality coffees from around the world. He uses a 6 kilogram drum roaster that allows full control of the roast profile for each coffee and runs the operation from the back wing of his family's home with an inspiring view of Lake Warren. His father, Randy Miller, is a musician and artist and his wood engravings are used in all of EARC's packaging and branding designs. Owen seeks out coffees grown responsibly from workers paid fairly.
