Linea

Linea was founded in May 2013 by Andrew Barnett in San Francisco's Mission District, marking a return to roasting for the veteran who had previously founded Ecco Caffè. The company became San Francisco's first 100 percent certified organic coffee roaster and has since expanded to a 5,000 square foot roastery café on Potrero Hill, where a vintage Probat UG 22 anchors the production. Barnett, who serves as a judge at the World Barista Championship, sources biodynamic and regenerative coffees with full CCOF organic certification across the lineup. Linea earned B Corp certification in 2023, a Good Food Award in 2024, and has been recognized by Food & Wine as one of America's best indie coffee shops. The roastery's commitment to environmental standards matches the precision Barnett brings to every roast profile.
