Roaster Specific Protocols

In addition to the enhanced cleaning, sanitizing, and personal hygiene efforts listed above, we have significantly reduced the amount of staff and other persons entering our roasting facility. Only our Head Roaster is present the majority of the time. When deliveries are made/shipped our bay doors are opened for enhanced air circulation. In the event that more than one person is present at the roasting facility all social distancing guidelines are strictly followed. We have also modified how we conduct our quality control tastings so that there is zero contact between any one staff member and another or shared items.

I think or know I had COVID-19, and I had symptoms

You can be with others after

  • 3 days with no fever and
  • Respiratory symptoms have improved (e.g. cough, shortness of breath) and
  • 10 days since symptoms first appeared

I tested positive for COVID-19 but had no symptoms

If you continue to have no symptoms, you can be with others after:

  • 10 days have passed since test

For Anyone Who Has Been Around a Person with COVID-19

It is important to remember that anyone who has close contact with someone with COVID-19 should stay home for 10-14 days after exposure based on the time it takes to develop illness.
