About Kaldi's Coffee
Community reputation · Reddit
Well-regarded· sentiment 75/100
In the Reddit coffee community, 'Kaldi' is almost exclusively discussed as a manufacturer of home coffee roasting equipment (such as the Kaldi Wide, Mini, and Fortis) rather than as a coffee bean roaster. Users frequently share their experiences with these drum roasters as part of their progression in the hobby, often modifying them with sensors like Phidgets. While there is occasional mention of the brand in broader coffee contexts, the community sentiment is focused on the hardware's utility for home roasting enthusiasts.
