This bill would update Kentucky law to allow home-based food processors to roast and sell coffee beans as part of their cottage food operations. Currently, roasted coffee beans are not included in the list of products these small home-based businesses are permitted to make, and this change would add them. Who it may affect: home-based food producers and small cottage food businesses interested in roasting and selling coffee.
