47Coffee · Roasting Education

01 · THE INSTRUCTOR
Meet Simone Faragalli
Learn roasting from a trainer who works with coffee every day.
Simone combines engineering thinking, coffee science and hands-on production experience as the founder and roaster behind 47Coffee.
His teaching approach focuses on understanding why a roast behaves as it does: how coffee structure, processing, moisture, machine characteristics and energy management influence flavour. The goal is not to copy a curve, but to develop the judgement needed to roast with consistency and intent.
