RFINE Biomass Solutions & Java Blend Coffee: Redefining Sustainability in the Roasting Process

Canadian Food Innovation Network · 2.8K views on YouTube

Watch on YouTube

This video covers Java Blend Coffee Roasters; it is general roaster coverage.

Cherrybook summary of the video

This video profiles a partnership between Java Blend Coffee Roasters and Refine Biomass Solutions to tackle the challenge of coffee chaff waste. By converting this byproduct into high-value food ingredients like a cocoa extender, Java Blend highlights how sustainability can also create new revenue streams. The collaboration is supported by the Canadian Food Innovation Network, enabling the roastery to incorporate circular economy principles directly into their operations.

Inside this video

From Canadian Food Innovation Network:

“We developed technology and processes to turn this raw material into high-value food ingredients like our Cafika cocoa extender.”

“Without non-dilutive funding and grants that they have provided us, it would be really challenging to develop technology.”

“Refine has made it very very easy for us to do this. We think that it's going to make all of our lives much easier.”
