Beans. Brews. Brains.

Women work endlessly in coffee farms to bring you the flavorful coffee you drink every single morning, and to think that certain hiring managers believe that women were “too small” to handle roasting tasks is a mockery. As a roaster who happens to be a woman, it never occurred to me that roasting coffee was considered a “man’s job” until I got into the business. It is, without a doubt, physical labor, but nothing a woman in good shape cannot handle.
