ABOUT THE FARM & FARMER

On top of one of the mountains that surrounds the city of Santa Barbara, sits Finca Las Lomas, where Yosedi and his family live. From this farm, the other mountains seem much smaller and for this reason, they named the farm “Las Lomas”, because from their point of view, they are surrounded by small hills. Finca las Lomas is also surrounded by natural forests, which offers the farm a mild and fresh climate. To get to Finca Las Lomas, you have to hike one hour among forests rich in flora and fauna. It is not easy to produce coffee on this farm, but Yosedi thinks it’s worth the effort. Yosedi had been working in coffee for 10 years, when he decided to purchase his first piece of land to grow coffee and sustain his family. He built this farm without hiring any workers and he decided to plant large parts of the farm with Pacas as he aspired to one day stand out among other coffee growers for the quality of his coffee. At first, he had no idea how to produce specialty coffee, but he knew that someday, when he had more experience and with this varietal, he would be able to produce specialty coffee.

As the years passed, many people that told him that his coffee had great potential and
recommended him to start focusing on specialty coffee. However, he believed that this would involve too much investment that he couldn’t afford. In 2016, however, he decided to try it out and delivered his first specialty coffee lot to Beneficio San Vicente. He was very surprised and excited when they told him his coffee was excellent and they paid him a great price. After this, Yosedi realised that he didn’t need a large investment to start producing specialty coffee, instead little by little he could work on improving his processes.

        FAQ

        When will I receive my coffee?

        Our coffee is sent via Australia Post .
        Tracking services are provided and you will receive your tracking number once we dispatch your order.

        Parcel Post by AustPost normally takes under 6 business days and Express Post by AustPost normally under 3 business days.

        Upon receiving your order, we generally send your order out within two business days as we aim for you to have the freshest roast possible.

        We do have roast schedule's and some orders may be delayed waiting for those roast days - we will let you know if there's any lengthy delays.

        Please allow extra time over public holidays or during major holiday periods and weekends.

        Please note if you order later than Thursday, your order might not be able to arrive until Tuesday the following week.

        Please understand drivers are human, some errors can happen. When it happens, don't hesitate and contact us at hello@symmetrycoffeeroasters.com.au   or "Chat with us" from the website.

        Can I pickup my coffee?

        Yes, you are more than welcome.

        Walk through "Little Things Cafe" you will find your order to the right as you enter the roastery gates on a black steel shelf with your name/# stickered on your parcel.

        Place your order, then give us some time to roast and pack for you (usually less than two business days).

        Once received ready for pickup notification, come in, check in, and say hi to either Matty or Po.

        Can you grind my coffee?

        Sorry, we sell whole beans only.

         
        The reason being is that pre-grinding freshly roasted coffee means that it affects the integrity of the coffee and this makes the coffee expire a lot faster. It's like having artisan bread being pre-sliced or a piece of fruit being left out in the sun!

        I have other questions

        Send us your queries from our website "chat with us" function, our roasters Matty & Po will get back to you as soon as possible, if they are not online, you will get an email response.
