Hacea Roasting Championship Entry Pack
$95.00 - $895.00
We've partnered up with the team at Swiss Water for our next Roasting Championship!
Each entry pack will include both a conventional and decaffeinated version of the same exact natural processed coffee from the Muhororo Washing Station in Rwanda. Participants will roast each separately (conventional and decaffeinated) and submit samples for judging. Our judges will blend each entry to a 50%-50% blend ratio to create a half-caff blend which will be tasted and scored. This is a great opportunity to taste the same coffee both conventional and decaffeinated side by side!
A complete list of the competition rules and prizes can be found on our blog here.
This competition is open to everyone, from home hobby roasters to large professional roasters. Entries are per person, not per company.
Entry packs will include equal amounts of each coffee (ie. for the "2kg Entry Pack", roasters will receive 2kg of conventional Rwanda natural and 2kg of decaffeinated Rwanda natural).
All roasted entries must be received by Monday, July 13th and include the original order number from the entry pack purchase. Winners will be announced in a live online event on Friday, July 17th.
Each entry pack will include:
- Unroasted conventional and Swiss Water decaffeinated coffee from Muhororo Washing Station in Rwanda. Including equal amounts of conventional and decaffeinated coffee.
- One sachet of Third Wave Water Classic recipe for quality control.
- Two roasted coffee bags with entry card labels. Both entry cards must be filled in with your order number corresponding to the purchase of this entry pack.
- An envelope to ship your entry to our tasting room.
A pre-paid return label and shipping envelope for shipping the two 200 gram bags will be emailed to you in June.**
**Return shipping label not included with international entries - Unfortunately we cannot accommodate pick up orders for the entry due to the return label process.
- Additional details on how our judges will score and evaluate each entry.
- All rules, scoring rubric and prizes are listed in the rules post on our blog.
