A weekly discovery service for coffee obsessives
Discover micro-roasters you've never heard of. Every week.
We find hyper-local roasters producing under 500 bags/month — hidden gems you can't find on Google.
Why Roast Freak?
The best coffee isn't on the first page of Google.
There are thousands of tiny roasters across the country — people roasting in converted garages, barn lofts, and basement workshops. They produce under 500 bags a month. They don't have marketing budgets or SEO strategies. But their coffee? Unreal.
Hyper-local finds
Roasters so small they only sell to their neighbors — until now.
Under 500 bags/month
We exclusively feature micro-batch roasters. No big brands, no chains.
Buy direct
Every link goes straight to the roaster. No middlemen, no markup.
How it works
From obscurity to your inbox.
We scour
Our team digs through farmer’s markets, Instagram rabbit holes, Reddit threads, and word-of-mouth tips to find roasters nobody’s talking about yet.
We curate
We taste, verify, and vet every roaster. Only the ones that genuinely blow us away make the cut. Most weeks, that’s 3–5 picks.
You enjoy
Every Friday, you get an email with our top finds — each with a direct link to buy from the roaster. No affiliate nonsense.
Simple pricing
Less than your daily coffee.
One flat price. No tiers, no upsells, no “premium” nonsense. Just weekly access to the best hidden roasters in the country.
That's about $18/month — less than one bag of specialty coffee
- 3–5 curated micro-roaster picks every Friday
- Direct buy links — no middlemen
- Tasting notes & roaster backstories
- Cancel anytime, no questions asked
Your next favorite roaster already exists.
They're just roasting in a barn somewhere in Vermont. We'll find them for you.
