Redber Coffee Roastery

Redber Coffee Roastery: speciality beans roasted in Surrey

Redber Coffee Roastery is a family-run business that has been roasting coffee in Surrey since 2012. It operates primarily as an e-commerce shop, with orders placed online for delivery or click & collect at its Guildford site. The roastery describes itself as a one-stop shop for coffee and coffee-making equipment, combining freshly roasted beans with machines, grinders, brewing tools and accessories.

Coffee range and roast-to-order approach

The core of the offer is speciality Arabica coffee, roasted to order and supplied as whole beans or ground to suit the customer's brewing method. The catalogue is organised in several ways to help buyers choose:

• By type: bestsellers, single origin coffees, blends, decaf, organic, taster packs and liquor-infused beans.
• By flavour profile: chocolatey & nutty, smooth & balanced, fruity & floral, and rich & bold.
• By brew method: espresso, filter, cafetière and bean-to-cup, alongside green/unroasted beans.

Single origin coffees number more than twenty according to the site, and the range includes named lots such as Colombia Huila in dark and extra dark roast, Guatemala Antigua as green coffee, and Uganda Rwenzori at medium roast. Blends include Café Français, Caffè Italiano and a seasonal Halloween Coffee Blend. A Coffee of the Month feature highlights a rotating coffee; the site indicated Monsoon Malabar for October, with a 10% discount for Redber Rewards members during that month. The company also states that some of its coffees have received Great Taste Awards over the years.

Equipment, brewing and drinkware

Beyond beans, Redber stocks a broad equipment catalogue. Coffee machines are grouped into espresso machines, bean-to-cup machines and filter coffee machines, with brands including Moccamaster, Sage, De'Longhi, Melitta and Lelit. Grinders are split into electric, hand, espresso and filter/pour-over categories. The brewing section covers pour-overs and drippers, portable makers, cafetières, moka pots, AeroPress, cold brew makers, syphons and brewing sets, while barista tools include milk frothing jugs, thermometers, tampers, distribution tools, portafilters, knock boxes and scales. Drinkware ranges from cups and mugs to travel mugs, reusable bottles, teapots and matcha sets, and the shop also carries Emma Bridgewater mugs.

Syrups, gifts and cleaning supplies

The drinks and syrups range includes Monin, Sweetbird and Simply Syrups, with sugar-free and seasonal options, plus hot chocolate, chai, frappé, tea, iced tea, matcha and smoothies. Gifts and treats cover chocolates, biscuits, fudge, savoury nibbles, coffee gift boxes, gifts under £20, Halloween gifts and digital gift vouchers.
