I think it’s still much too small to have that problem honestly

Man… used to be twitter and I don’t have a replacement yet. You could just follow all the journalists you wanted over there it was great. But now I’m migrating away from the app.

Coffee is global so technically speaking most good coffee isn’t from the States, though thats not saying the US is in any way lacking in amazing coffee. It’s just a big world!

I think I buy about 70% foreign and 30% domestic these days. But the quality isn’t any different! I just like to get a global sampling :)

Omg that old madcap design had more info about the coffee on it too! The sleeve on it had a lot of details which can only be found online now while the coffee is in stock!

Here’s the old bag design!

Current favorite roaster is a very difficult to answer question lol. It’s constantly changing but I’m a really big fan right now of Nomad in Barcelona, April in Copenhagen, and Leaves in Tokyo. In the US, I love Onyx in AK and Little Wolf in MA!

I have little wolf’s blue cupping spoon and i really like it.

Ha! It’s not the lack of enjoying espresso for me, it’s the lack of funds to invest enough where i’d be happy with my at-home output! But I can make a killer filter coffee for relatively cheap at home.

Aw yay! They’re my first favorite roaster. I owe my biggest hobby to madcap. I was back in GR recently and got to go get a few cups from there again. They had a quality dip around the start of covid because their head roaster left, but after a year or so they were right back on track. I miss the patch on their bags though!

Oh nice! First whole bean is really exciting. Tinker is pretty good too. If you live in that area, my favorite roaster around there is probably Indie Coffee Roasters (https://www.indiecoffeeroasters.com/). It’s been a long time since I had Tinker coffee.

How’d you like the coffees?
