Deluca Coffee is a coffee roasting company providing high quality espresso blends and La Marzzocco equipment to cafes and espresso bars who share our love of coffee. It offers the opportunity to explore different coffees and brewing methods while ensuring the Deluca blend is delivering a consistently great flavour every day. We like to think of our blend much like an orchestra. The final flavor is the result of each component contributing a crucial part to a complete and balanced taste experience.

Fresh drop: Marco Morocho. 🇪🇨

A classic washed Typica, and our special release for next week. Presented by a special person, as every special release should be. 😉

It took us 10 years to work out we were damaging our roaster while cleaning it. 🛠️

The old way left little scratches and scrapes in the metal. Then the ducts got dirty faster next time, and were harder to clean.

Now everything goes back to bare metal. It’s much easier to do, and the result is so much better.

This is what we expected to find. 🔥

Inside the hot ducts of our other roaster: baked-on oil, really difficult to remove. The cold ducts aren’t as bad, and that stuff scrapes off fairly easily.

It’s why we do this every year. Built-up oil is a fire hazard, and a fire inside the ducting is really hard to put out. It also affects airflow, and that affects your profile.

So why was the first roaster squeaky clean after a whole year? We’re still thinking about that one.

We expected a year of baked-on oil inside the ducts. We found basically bare metal. 🤔

Our suspect: the thermal wrap. Still pulling everything apart to be sure.

Big. Heavy. Unbalanced. Above head height. 🛠️

The T duct is one of the trickiest jobs in the annual clean. To take the weight, we installed an I-beam between the rafters and rigged a block and tackle.

Then there’s the strapping. It has to stop the duct spinning, so the air valves don’t drop and smash into the roaster. And because it’s so unbalanced, it has to come up straight.

Getting it back up is the easier part. Getting it off is the one that stresses us out.

Same clean, two very different roasters. 🛠️

On one side, one or two people can lift off all the ducts, and the cyclones come away without a fuss. It isn’t stressful.

On the other, the size and weight of everything changes the job. Lifting and moving parts off is genuinely stressful, because the last thing you want is to hurt someone or drop something.

Both are big problems. We plan the whole clean around avoiding them.

03/11/2026

Duct surface temperature: 140°C before the wrap, 25 to 28°C after. 🌡️

Now we’re taking it off for the annual clean, to see how much we can put back.

51 weeks until we have to do this again. 😅

The annual roastery clean: a white room, a lot of black soot, and a strict no-breaking-anything policy.
