Redshift
A family-owned roastery in Lake Forest. We roast in-house, and we pour it bright, warm, or deep red.
The Redshift Spectrum
The deeper the roast, the redder the light.
Run the marker across the spectrum. Light roasts sit at the short, blue end, bright and high. The roast deepens as the light stretches toward red.
The shortest wavelength on the bench. Bright, high, and clean. Where a lighter roast keeps its lift and its acidity.
We don't roast by color alone. What matters is how the coffee will be brewed, and how to bring out the most from each bean. Their words.
On the Bench
Roasted in-house, by hand, by people.
Not by color
We don't roast by light, medium, or dark. Color alone doesn't tell the full story.
By the brew
What matters is how the coffee will be brewed, and how to pull the most out of each bean.
Syrups in-house
The seasonal syrups are made here, not poured from a bottle. Reviewers noticed.
“We ordered a Citrus Cream, and it was perfectly balanced. The smoked salmon toast was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented. The atmosphere is calm and modern.”
