Discover the Story Behind Reds Bayside Grind

Nestled in New Baltimore’s historic district is the bay's first coffee roasting company — Reds Bayside Grind. The building once bustled with the energy of Floyd Maynard “Red” Aurand, a beloved local businessman and dedicated community leader whose contributions to Little League sports touched countless young lives. For over 80 years and across three generations, Red and his family created a warm, welcoming hub right here in the heart of town.
At Reds Bayside Grind, we're deeply passionate about honoring Reds name and legacy while bringing our community something truly special: the freshest, small-batch air roasted coffee made from the finest 100% Arabica beans sourced from all over the world.
Whether you’re grabbing your morning cup, meeting friends, or simply soaking in the friendly atmosphere, we can’t wait to welcome you. Come experience the heart and soul of New Baltimore — one delicious, aromatic roast at a time.
What Benefits Does Air Roasting Bring to Coffee beans?
Here at Reds Bayside Grind, we believe that fresh air-roasted coffee is the superior way to enjoy your daily cup. Air roasting delivers a clean, smooth taste with no bitter or burnt notes, while guaranteeing a perfectly consistent roast every time. It's also a healthier option, as the process preserves more of the coffee's natural antioxidants. Plus, air roasting is environmentally friendly - our electric Java Master roaster produces no harmful emissions.
