Our Roaster Sivetz SRM15


At Big Beaver Coffee Co. we believe that great coffee starts with how it’s roasted. That’s why we use a Sivetz Fluid Bed Air Roaster, a cutting-edge roasting system designed to unlock the full potential of every coffee bean.

Cleaner, Brighter Flavour

Michael Sivetz was a pioneer in fluid-bed coffee roasting and revolutionized the industry with his innovative approach. Unlike traditional drum roasters, Sivetz roasters use hot air to evenly roast coffee beans, preserving their natural flavours and reducing bitterness. The Sivetz SRM15 continues this tradition, offering superior control over the roasting process.

Traditional drum roasters use direct contact with hot metal, which can scorch beans and create burnt or uneven flavors. Our air roasting method suspends coffee beans in a stream of hot air, ensuring a perfectly even roast with no scorching, charring, or smoky residue. The result? A cleaner, brighter, and more complex flavour in every cup.

Precision & Consistency in Every Batch

Our state-of-the-art Sivetz SRM15 roaster allows us to precisely control temperature, air flow, and roast profiles, ensuring every batch meets the highest standard of quality. Unlike traditional methods, which can vary from roast to roast, fluid bed roasting produces consistent results every time.

Sustainable & Efficient Roasting

Air roasting isn’t just better for coffee—it’s better for the environment:

  • Uses less energy compared to drum roasting.
  • Produces less smoke and waste, thanks to an integrated chaff collection system.
  • Eliminates the need for afterburners, making it a more eco-friendly choice.

By choosing Big Beaver Coffee Co., you’re not just getting better coffee—you’re supporting a cleaner, greener way of roasting.

Fresher Coffee, Faster

Because our air roasting system works more efficiently, we can roast small batches with precision and get fresh coffee to you faster than traditional roasting methods. This means your beans retain more of their natural aromatics, oils, and nuanced flavours.
