How to Pick Coffee Beans by Taste Preference: A No-Jargon Guide
Start from foods you already love and translate them to coffee settings. A reverse flavor guide with roast, origin, and process for every palate.
You pick the coffee, then the roast, grind, and amount. For every coffee in your plan, changeable before each weekly cutoff. Go ahead, try it:
The RoastPlan standard
Most subscription coffee reaches Ajax the long way: roasted somewhere else, weeks ago, warehoused in between. And the roast level, grind, and amount were never your call to begin with.
RoastPlan is roasted here in Ajax: set each coffee's roast, grind, and grams by Saturday 10 AM, and we roast that morning and hand-deliver Sunday, free. Your coffee never sees a warehouse, or a highway. Watch one order travel the week.

Honestly, best coffee decision I've made. Tired of the watery stuff from the grocery store. This is the real deal, specialty grade and super fresh. My mornings are way better now.
FINALLY, amazing coffee that just shows up at my door. As a busy mom, this is a lifesaver. The Ethiopian Yirgacheffe is just... wow. So easy to change my order too.

★★★★★Was a bit lost with all the fancy coffee terms before, but RoastPlan makes it easy. Actually enjoy trying new beans now. No more stale, bitter coffee for me, thank goodness!

★★★★★Cancel before Saturday 10 AM and you were never charged a cent. No minimum charges, no prepaid terms that outlive your interest, no points held hostage.
