What other people say

One of the best coffee roasters on the peninsula. My usual supplier of my daily drug, my daily cup of joe. No joke best coffee beans for our home express or Italian stove brew on the road. May be a bit on the strong side for straight black but always perfect for milky coffees. And the delivery 2nd to none. Pretty much always on the same day as ordering - even on a Sunday. That’s a good coffee!

So impressed with Dancing Goat. After a quick search I went with them as I needed some beans for my coffee machine and like to support local.

Within a few hours the beans were dropped at my door and they are delicious. So happy to have found them - will be a regular!!

Once you have danced with the goat, there's no turning back! Delivered to our door locally within just a few hours of ordering. The beans are sublime - smooth rich coffee that is just a joy to drink.

Dancing Goat Coffee Roasters imports specially chosen green coffee beans from around the world. These coffee beans are roasted to taste best in café latte, cappuccino and flat white. This image shows workers drying coffee beans in the field.

Choosing coffee is hard

Dancing Goat Coffee Roasters was established to solve the biggest problem facing Australian coffee drinkers today: how to find good coffee beans for their milk-based coffee.

Most coffee roasters roast their green beans with espresso in mind.
Think apple flavours, stewed fruits, plums, flowery flavours and citrus. And those beans are often roasted pretty light. Which means more acidity in the roasted bean.

Most coffee is wrong in milk

That’s all fine and dandy if you’re into black espresso coffee. Buuuuut, you’re not. So what do those fruity coffee beans mean for the poor old milk coffee drinker?

Those acidic roasts are nasty in certain milk coffees – particularly soy milk. The acids love to curdle soy milk.

Plus, those delicate fruity and floral flavours tend to get lost in milk coffees. You end up with a slightly sweet, bland, hot cup of blah.

Dancing Goat coffee is right

We’re roasting coffee beans that belong in milk-based coffees made with soy milk and cow’s milk and walrus milk and whatever milk takes your fancy.

Big and bold or mellow and smooth, spicy and sweet, chocolates and cocoa – coffees that kick.

One last thing, we only sell single origin coffee beans, no blends. Why? Because the coffee blend doesn't exist that beats a single origin coffee for flavour in a milk coffee. There, we said it.
