We’re honored to offer 10 free tickets to Roast Summit 2025 (Oct 2–3 in Portland, OR) in memory of Timothy Beckley—also known by many as TJ or “The Teej.” Tim was a passionate roaster, community builder, and longtime attendee of coffee events. He served as head roaster at Java Kai / Kai Bar Roasters in Kauai from 2013 until 2023, and passed away on January 1, 2025, from metastatic melanoma.

This giveaway was made possible by his family to carry on Tim’s legacy of generosity, connection, and curiosity within the roasting community. Tim is deeply missed by the community he served with passion and warmth. He is survived by his parents Todd and Kim Beckley (Brea, CA), his brother Ross Beckley (Blue Jay, CA), and his sister Sarah Beckley (Austin, TX).
