Bio
Location: 136 W Georgia Ave, DeLand, FL
Established: 2014
Owner Clay Cass and his wife Michelle started their coffee adventure around 2014, roasting at home in their laundry room as a hobby. The passion grew quickly - they moved their home roasting operation to a larger space inside the Da Vinci Design Studio in DeLand. Over the next two years, Clay perfected his roasting craft and supplied freshly roasted coffee beans to customers through local farmers markets. In 2016, Trilogy's current brick-and-mortar location was born. The three stories of Trilogy - I. Coffee, II. Company, and III. Community - keep them focused on their core vision. It starts with ensuring the coffee products are of the highest quality, continues with developing and training staff to deliver customer service and experience at the highest standards, and concludes with stimulating and fostering an environment that the local community can enjoy. Trilogy sets the bar high and continues to deliver for DeLand.

Hardware
The Centerpiece: Slayer Two-Group
The Roaster: Diedrich IR-12
Trilogy is pulling shots through their Slayer two group head espresso machine. Slayer is a Seattle-based manufacturer that has been building espresso machines since 2007. Italian coffee equipment conglomerate saw the value in Slayer and purchased the company in 2017. These machines are top-of-the-line, and allow ultimate control of both manual and automatic processes. What that means for you? It allows Trilogy to dial in their coffee and deliver precise flavors in your cup. Back of the house, Trilogy is roasting up their beans in a Diedrich IR-12 roaster - another top-of-the-line piece of coffee equipment. Before roasting new beans in large batches on the Diedrich, Clay uses an Ikawa small-batch sample roaster to determine the best flavors to bring out in the roast. This method allows for a "rapid prototyping" approach to the coffee, and ensures the full potential of the beans is realized before roasting in volume for the shop and their wholesale partners.
