Rad Roasting Co

Precision tracking in real time 💻🔥

Roasting specialty coffee isn't just about turning up the heat, it’s about monitoring every single degree, airflow tweak and second on the curve. Watching the profile while the Giesen does its thing, ensures every batch lands in that exact sweet spot before it ever hits your cup.

Shane’s behind the controls dialling in the data so you get maximum flavour with zero guesswork. Come see the machine in action next time you're grabbin' a heater at Scoundrel.

Admittedly, it might look like the crew is just parked up doing sweet fa more often than not, but don’t be fooled, some of our absolute best ideas get born out of a good old-fashioned sh*t-chatting session over a hot brew.

We’ve got a few new projects, product drops and local collabs currently cooking behind the scenes.

Watch this space. Good things are on the way.

Stripped back to basics.

When the beans are ethically sourced and precision-roasted, there’s nowhere to hide, and a long black shows off every single note. Thick crema, bold flavour and maximum clarity in the cup.

Sunrise hits different when there’s a fresh brew waiting 🌅☕️

Massive shoutout to one of our newest partners, North Beach Beer Garden. These legends are doing it properly; pouring fresh Rad at their cafe by day, then flipping the switch to cold beers and a revolving door of pop-up street food bros by night.

Whether you’re catching the early light post-surf or dropping in for evening eats, the setup out here is all class. Stoked to have our beans in the hopper for their morning rush.

Dark, crisp and custom-crafted for the lineup 🍺☕️

Introducing Rad Lager: our latest collaboration drop with the legends at BEERS.

We dialled in a specialty coffee roast created specifically for this brew, layering a smooth, rich coffee character onto a clean, refreshing dark lager. The result? A heavy-hitting, ice-cold drop that bridges the gap between your afternoon brew and after-hours drinks.

Pouring right now at Scoundrel. Cruise on down to St Asaph Street, grab a seat and taste it fresh from the tap before it runs dry.

The workshop is always buzzing with the hum of refurbishment 🛠️

We’ll always back repair over endlessly buying new. Keeping quality gear alive is in our DNA, which is why we make sure our cafe partners are set up with finely tuned, bulletproof workhorses that won't let them down during a heavy morning rush.

Got a home machine that needs some love? We also offer private servicing and repairs to get your kitchen setup dialled back in (head below to check out the brands we service).

Great coffee gets the day started but, let’s be honest, life isn’t complete without the love of a good dog 🐶☕️

Whether they’re parked up under the table waiting for a stray scone crumb or greeting the crew at St Asaph Street, our four-legged legends make every morning ritual that much better.

Bring your good boys and girls down to Scoundrel for your daily brew. Dog pats are mandatory, epic coffee is guaranteed.

The heavy-hitter of the lineup 🛹⚡

Our signature Kickflip blend is engineered for maximum stoke and zero fuss. Packed with rich chocolate fudge, sweet dried apricot and a crisp green apple lift, it’s the ultimate go-to whether you’re dialling in your espresso machine or filling the filter jug for a big week ahead.

Grab a bag online, set up a subscription or come catch the crew at Scoundrel to get your bag custom ground to suit your setup. Available in 250g or 1kg.

Silky smooth and poured to perfection.

If your daily routine needs a proper alignment, the crew at Scoundrel have the machine fired up and the fresh Rad roasts fully dialed in. No fuss or overcomplicating things, just premium specialty caffeine poured exactly how it should be.

Pull up a seat, get your hands on a hot heater and let us sort your daily ritual.

Premium fuel, anywhere you drop anchor 🏕️☕

This is exactly what we built our new drip bags for. No heavy grinders, no bulky gear and zero hassle to pack down into your kit. Just open the sachet, anchor it over your mug and pour the hot water.

Whether you’re waking up deep in the backcountry, heating up post-surf on the beach or just taking a breather off the beaten track, you shouldn't have to settle for instant dust. We handled the precision profile at the roastery so you can get a proper, heavy-hitting specialty cup no matter how far out you take the ride.

Pack light. Drink well.
