Scheduled to open in April 2016, The Crown will have five primary spaces: a tasting room that will be open to the public; a cupping lab with plans to include SCAA- and CQI-certified courses; an experimental brewing lab that will also provide a platform for certified coursework; a large event space; and a four-roaster roasting lab for courses, testing and progressive roasting experiments.
Although the roast profiling will only be for coffees from Royal's list, it should provide some insights for home roasters, too. The Oakland labs should be a great opportunity for people in the Bay Area, assuming they allow non-customers.Through this collaboration, The Crown and Cropster will be regularly publishing roast curves, in addition to tasting notes, cupping notes, green coffee analysis and any number of other data available through Cropster software to help roasters more fully understand how specific coffees are getting from A to B.

It's a nifty thing. I spoke with the Royal team at Coffee Fest and was stoked to hear about this. Thanks for linking the article!
This is not, the greatest profile in the world, no, this is just a tribute.
