Ok...so we're a little green. Coffee requires clean air, pure water, and rich soil. Now here is the picture: coffee grows out in the middle of nowhere, far away from smog and city runoff. At 11 we work to minimize our environmental impact through our farming relationships, production, and packaging. We only purchase from farmers who implement sustainable practices in growing their crops. Sustainable practices are quality and environmental assurances that guarantee consistency. Ok…so we’re a little green. We love coffee and know that if we do the right things now, future generations can experience great coffee as well.

What is it that makes 11 unique? Creating masterful and exciting blends is not easy and it takes a culinary artist to awaken the hidden natural flavors found in these small beans. Bobby blends art and science together to harvest these nuances. So we didn’t hire a kid at minimum wage to run the roaster. The owner Bobby Grover is the roaster and he uses the best Drum Roaster available.

Well, do you believe that we know what we’re doing when it come to coffee? If so you can click here for some brewing advice, but if you’re not fully convinced then here’s some more info about us. We sample-roast hundreds of pounds of coffee each year to find the perfect “Roast Profile” for each bean we offer. (We then donate that coffee to local charitable organizations.) We look for coffee grown in the best regions of Central and South America, Africa and Indonesia. Because roasting is about heat acceleration into the bean and different beans react in different ways to heat, we do not believe that any bean should be taken to the point of carbonization (such as the Briquettes of many West coast roasters). We chart every batch that exits our roaster to ensure consistency. Different regions have different characteristics as well, so finding great beans are only a part of the whole equation. Ultimately ,they must be converted into rich, delectable finished products. And this is where the 11 magic truly begins. Nestled in the highlands of Central Oregon, company founder Bobby Grover and his team spend morning, noon, and night roasting magnificent coffee worthy of the 11 Roasters brand. Blending mocha, blueberry and caramel through artistry and chemistry with such balance you’d swear cream had been added when you weren’t looking; coffee kissed by natural sweetness requires no sugar added. These words and more describe 11’s line of roasts. Do we consider ourselves culinary artists? You bet. That’s why we dare you to try our coffee. It’s not a statement of arrogance but one of confidence in knowing we deliver an excellent product.
