The Love Hope Strength Podcast featuring – Tom Altoft – Q Grader and Coffee Roaster – Series 2 - Episode 4 - @theitaliancoffeeguy @thelovehopestrengthpodcast
Tom takes us on an extraordinary journey through Lincoln and York, immersing us in the sensory experience of the tasting room—a space where coffee meets craftsmanship. Equipped with a sample roaster and precision brewing tools, this room isn’t just a place to taste; it’s a commitment to excellence, ensuring every cup meets the highest standard for his company’s customers.
But Tom’s story is more than just coffee—it’s about determination, grit, and the road that led him to a prestigious organization. He pulls back the curtain on the intense exams and rigorous training required to become a Q Grader, a role that demands the ability to detect the subtlest of imperfections—like a potato defect—hidden within an array of specialty coffees.
From the meticulous art of roasting to the intricate science behind developing the flavors in your daily brew, Tom sheds light on a process many take for granted. And nestled within this journey is a poignant story of a tasting spoon—an emblem of the deep camaraderie and support that defines the coffee industry.
He shares the twists and turns of his first day at work, a day that unfolded in ways he never imagined. Beyond the beans and brews, Tom opens his heart, revealing his love, hope, and strength.
He reflects on the path he might have taken if coffee hadn’t called his name. And with sincerity and gratitude, he gives a heartfelt shoutout to those who stood by him during his toughest times—proving that resilience thrives in the warmth of support and the healing power of laughter.
This is more than a conversation about coffee; it’s a testament to passion, perseverance, and the people who make the journey worthwhile. Listen in and experience the world through Tom’s eyes.
