Caffe Lusso Coffee Roasters
Share
Roasting in the Pacific Northwest since 2000.
This is our current Ethiopia Guji showing off and we love it!
As green coffee heats up in the roaster, pressure builds inside each bean from water v***r and gases. Then…pop, pop, pop you hear it!
That’s first crack.
It’s similar to popcorn:
• The beans expand
• Their structure breaks open
• Flavor development accelerates
This is the turning point where:
• Bright acidity starts to shine
• Sugars begin caramelizing
• Aromas become recognizable as coffee
Roasters use first crack as a key marker:
-Stop here: lighter roast, more origin character
-Go beyond: deeper body, more developed sweetness
At the roastery, it’s one of the most exciting moments because everything before it is potential… and everything after it is flavor.

Philip made Pizzelle for Dana’s birthday…oddly enough Dana runs our instagram. So happy birthday to me 🤷🏼♀️.
We hope all of you had a wonderful Easter and drank delicious espresso. Cheers!

Fun collaboration with .
Today is featuring our Gran Miscela Carmo—available while supplies last.
We’ve been genuinely impressed with what this beautifully designed machine can do. It honors the integrity of the bean in a way few systems can—each coffee is thoughtfully packed whole, then freshly ground for every cup in the xBloom machine. Even more, the recipe comes directly from the roaster, dialed in with precision down to water temperature, so you experience the coffee exactly as intended.
Enjoy GMC the way we love it at the roastery, using our preferred pour-over profile—clean, balanced, and expressive.
A truly elevated way to experience coffee.
Some ASMR for your Monday Morning.
Yes, we are labeling all Roma orders by hand just for you. Roma will be live on the website to buy April 1st and 2nd Only.
Five years ago, we released a truly unforgettable espresso blend—Roma.
For two days only, it returns.
Roma is a refined tribute to the timeless tradition of Italian espresso—crafted with intention, depth, and quiet sophistication.
Often misunderstood, Robusta reveals extraordinary character when sourced with care. In its highest form, it offers indulgent depth, elegant nuttiness, and a layered complexity. For generations, Italian espresso masters have embraced Robusta for the luxurious crema, full-bodied texture, and richness it brings to a blend.
Distinct from Arabica, Robusta stands as its own species—capable of remarkable refinement at its peak. For this limited release, we’ve selected a high-grade Monsooned AA Robusta, prized for its smoothness and depth.
The result is a beautifully balanced espresso—velvety in texture, rich in character, and finished with a deep, resonant elegance that defines Roma

Precision meets performance.
The newest powerhouse in our roastery — the MPEGPX (geeking out moment).
Engineered for excellence, this grinder can process up to 5 lbs of coffee in just 30 seconds, delivering consistency at an incredible scale of 500 lbs per hour. The water-cooled burr chamber protects the integrity, aroma, and nuanced flavors of every bean as its ground. this means precision grinding without compromise.
Because exceptional coffee deserves exceptional care.
