We’re of the belief that roast levels shouldn’t be limiting of preparation methods. This means all our coffees can be prepared as espresso or filter. But enjoyment will heavily depend on personal preference. This means we suggest relying upon the tasting notes we provide to help paint a picture of the profile.
Our Confluence blend sits very happily in the middle of what would traditionally be referred to as an espresso roast and a filter roast. While Dawn Patrol sits happily at the espresso roast end of things, and First Light at the filter end of things.

Well, not exactly…
This thinking and advertising came as a bit of a rhetoric as the second wave developed into the third wave of coffee and specialty coffee attempted to further itself from the commercial sector and coffees commonly found in grocery stores.
Your coffee will likely arrive to you within 6 days of roast and you can use it then, and it can certainly taste bright and clear after a month.
We personally find our coffee to be at its “peak” from day 14 onwards (and easily tasting great 8+ weeks)
For espresso, we recommend resting the coffee for 20 days after roast +1 additional day for every 1,000ft above altitudes of 2,000ft to reduce the intensity of crema and improve the taste experience. And as always, please adjust accordingly to your own preferences!

After many years in many areas of the industry, we’ve found ourselves with many friends in countries which predominantly produce coffee. These friendships have led to introductions to producers who we’re able to communicate with directly and build a strong business partnership with. Over 90% of all our coffees come from these direct partnerships.

Coffee is currently roasted Monday - Wednesday for orders received the previous 5 days. Those coffees ordered earlier in the week will ship by Wednesday via USPS so that it arrives in your hands ready to drink (or almost ready!). Coffees ordered on Wednesday will ship between Wednesday and Friday pending stock levels or will ship the following week.
For USPS shipments on the West Coast, orders will arrive 2-5 business days once shipped. And for our East Coast buds expect 3-7 business days.
We do not ship on U.S. federally recognized holidays.

Only blends are currently available as subscriptions in whole bean. They will ship Wednesdays on the week of ordering and the recurring orders following.
