Clearing Land for the Coffee Roaster - Cedar Ota Update

Its time to throw off the bowlines and venture on to that which I have been dreaming of for years.

We cleared the area where my future coffee roastery is going to be and prepped the area for the pad. It felt so good having my family there to help and see my once imaginary dream turning into reality. It was the first step to a dream becoming more. We still have to build up the dirt pad and get the building moved in but we are slowly getting closer.

I have decided on a 12’X32‘ wood frame building with a small front porch to make it easier to load/unload coffee and equipment. This should give enough room in the beginning to set up the coffee roasting area and also a studio area to shoot product shots and some video. Adding a desk area to work out of in the front of the shop will allow me to conduct all my business/editing/media in one location.

Hope you enjoy the vlog below!

2018 Was a life-changing year for me. I stumbled upon two passions that I now love, roasting coffee and creating videos. Whether it is roasting coffee on my Bideli roaster or vlogging with my new GoPro Hero 7 Black, I am going to pursue what makes me happy in 2019! This is just the beginning. We have a ton of coffee to roast and videos to create this year. The plan is to release a new vlog every Wednesday and a Cedar Ota Presents video monthly. I also wanted to use this vlog to thank everyone who purchased coffee from me in December 2018. It was a killer holiday season! Enjoy the show and hit me up with any questions or comments! What are you pursuing in 2019?
