The best part of waking up is something you roasted on your own, ground up, and then poured into a cup.
Roll up your sleeves because Yellow Brick Coffee is hosting a roasting class from noon – 1 p.m. on Saturday, July 1.
This 60 minute class will introduce the basic principles of coffee roasting, and how they apply to Papua New Guinea: AAAK Angra Mindima.
For $35, participants will get a hands-on approach while identifying sensory milestones and learn the science and language applied to roasting your own coffee.
While the coffee is being cooled and packaged, the class instructors will lead an open discussion about the process of roasting.
Once your coffee has chilled long enough, you’ll be on your way with your freshly roasted 12-ounce bag, and a new understanding of how great coffee is really made.
To RSVP for the event, call (520) 226-4068 and visit yellowbrickcoffee.com for more information.

More about MattAt a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.
He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.
If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
