The Coffee Roasters Guild (CRG) and Diedrich Roasters have announced the 2023 Diedrich Roasters Scholarship program for CRG Retreat, taking place September 28 to October 1 in Blaine, Washington, USA.

In Autumn 2022, the Barista Guild, the Coffee Roasters Guild, and the Coffee Technicians Guild all nominated new members for their respective Leadership Councils. We’re pleased to welcome new faces to the guilds from February 2023!

"When I first ventured into the world of coffee in 2007, in my final year at Ashesi University in Ghana, I like many others had no idea that any coffee was produced in Ghana. There was no access to coffee education, no introduction to green coffee courses, or any training on processing methods, roasting, or barista training. Fast forward 15 years and the African coffee landscape has completely evolved. With the rise of global coffee chains and artisan roasteries, coffee education and barista championships have finally come to Africa."

The Coffee Roasters Guild (CRG) and Diedrich Roasters are proud to present the recipients of the 2022 Diedrich Roasters Scholarship for CRG Retreat taking place in Delavan, Wisconsin, USA this year.

My name is Miles, I’m a Business Development Manager at IKAWA, a former AST and roasting educator, and a black coffee professional. Moving through life as a member of the minority, the layers of my identity are always front of mind. Even the same when participating in coffee: I’m a woman who roasts coffee in a male-dominated sector, as well as a Black person working in a white-dominated industry.
