Oregon Coffee Roaster Inc began in 1985, roasting specialty coffee in the rural hills of Oregon, just outside Portland.  In the northwest, we value our coffee as a quick retreat from a blustery winter snowfall or a summer downpour!  From these small beginnings we have grown to a company that ships fresh-roasted, high-quality Arabica coffees to businesses across the United States including single-origin, estate, certified organic, proprietary blends and flavored coffees.  Janet Munkres and Cindy Ertell are hands-on owners, working daily to assure each order is handled with care from receiving the green coffee beans to loading the completed orders on the delivery truck.

OCR is committed to the Sivetz hot-air roasting method because it ensures clean, consistent roasts in all of our coffees. The Sivetz roaster is unique in that it uses hot air to roast coffee rather than a hot surface. The result is a clean uniform roast, free of the smoke and tar contamination found with other roasters. We roast each coffee to its peak shade and flavor so that you can be assured the best possible taste.

The warm beans from the roaster are hand screened to eliminate debris. Your coffee arrives without the broken beans and residuals found in many other coffees.  You and your customers will discern the difference hand screening makes in the coffee you provide.  

To make your buying easier, we also stock syrups, candies, paper products, tea accessories, airpots, whip creamers, chai tea, smoothie mix, Ghirardelli products and assorted other items.

Janet and her husband John personally supervise each roast, assuring the quality and consistency of the coffee you've built your business on.  Cindy runs the office operations and spends a good portion of her day talking with customers.

At Oregon Coffee Roaster we are committed to giving our valued customers the very best in product, service and support.  After 25 years, it has proven to be a winning formula.
