Wholesale coffee
Farm → farm coffee.
Wholesale coffee for cafes, restaurants, hotels, grocers, and offices across Central New York and beyond. Milk House Roastery is a small batch roaster on Shepard Settlement Farm in Marcellus, New York, where we treat roasting as both a craft and a culinary endeavor.
The craft
A tacit knowledge and sensorial experience that is honed by the practice of roasting.
The culinary
The understanding of the raw product and the reactions that occur in each step of the roasting process.
We are committed to supporting small scale coffee farmers and producers in coffee growing regions around the world. We extend our local values into the global coffee market to responsibly and sustainably source our beans.
Why buy from us
Why cafes and restaurants pour our coffee.
We meticulously roast each batch using a profile we develop in order to emphasize the best flavors and characteristics inherent in each origin and varietal. We roast a variety of single origin coffees that pair with various brewing methods and appeal to a range of customer tastes.
Our methods ensure consistency in every roast, which means a quality cup of coffee however you choose to brew.
Two ways to buy
By the pound, or retail ready on your shelf.
Most wholesale accounts start in one of two places. Tell us which one sounds like you and we will quote it.
Bulk, by the pound
For coffee shops · restaurants · hotels · catering · offices
Bulk quantities and roasts for a variety of applications. Roasted to order on a standing schedule built around how fast you actually pour, so nothing sits in a warehouse waiting for you.
- Whole bean by the pound, or ground to your brew method
- Standing roast days matched to your weekly volume
- Calibrated with your equipment before you go live
- Priced by volume, quoted per account
Retail ready bags
For grocery · specialty stores · farm stores · gift shops
Packaged coffee for grocery stores and specialty stores. The same bags we sell on our own shelf, labelled and ready to merchandise, at wholesale pricing.
- 8 oz, 12 oz, 16 oz and 32 oz bags
- Whole bean, or any of our five grinds
- Rotating single origins, so the shelf stays interesting
- Case quantities and reorder cadence set with you
Custom roasting and private label
Your own profile, your own label, roasted here on the farm. Available on either option above.
Cold brew
Built for the grab and go cooler.
Our canned cold brew is shelf stable, so it does not need refrigeration in the back room and it will not strand you if a cooler goes down. Put it cold on the shelf, or stack it warm and chill what you need.
Twelve ounce cans, roasted and brewed on the farm in Marcellus. Two flavors, each from a single origin rather than a commodity blend, which is the story that sells it next to the national brands.
Black and unsweetened
Bolivia
Bold, bright and smooth, with notes of chocolate. No sugar, no dairy.
Oat milk and cane sugar
Uganda · Bugisu
Lightly sweetened, creamy oat milk. Dairy free.
Case pricing and margin are quoted per account. Multi case and pallet rates available.

Common questions
Before you get in touch.
Who do you supply?
Coffee shops, restaurants, hotels, caterers, grocery and specialty stores, and offices. If you serve coffee to other people, we can probably help.
Do you sell by the pound, or in retail bags?
Both. Cafes, restaurants and offices usually buy bulk by the pound, ground to their brew method. Grocers and specialty stores usually take retail ready bags in 8, 12, 16 and 32 oz. Plenty of accounts do some of each.
How fresh is the coffee when it arrives?
Everything is roasted to order on a standing schedule built around your volume. Nothing is roasted before you order it, and nothing sits in a warehouse in between.
Is the canned cold brew shelf stable?
Yes. It does not require refrigeration for storage, so it can sit in the stockroom and go cold on the shelf when you have room. Cases are 24 twelve ounce cans, available in black and unsweetened or oat milk and cane sugar. Case pricing is quoted per account.
Can we get our own blend or our own label?
Yes. We offer custom roasting and private labels, developed with you against the way you brew.
Do you help us dial it in?
We will help you calibrate all of our roasts with your brew methods, and we are happy to offer brewing suggestions and techniques for your staff and your equipment.
