Kenya Fully Washed Kiambu - Regional Blend

Why different roast curves at 36th Parallel Coffee

Different coffees, different outcomes. We shape each roast curve to suit how the coffee will be brewed and what we want in the cup. Espresso needs structure and weight. Filter rewards clarity and precision. Same raw coffee, handled differently to get the best out of it.

Espresso roast profile

Built on a steady, controlled roast curve with a longer development phase to create body, sweetness, and depth. Balanced and full, with softened acidity and a clean, consistent finish. Designed for espresso, but equally at home on filter and used for both. Same coffee, just a different expression.

Filter roast profile

Built on a lighter, faster roast curve with shorter development to retain clarity and structure. Brighter, more expressive, with higher acidity and a cleaner finish. Designed for filter brewing where detail and separation matter.
