FAQ
Have questions about our coffee? We're here to help. From flavor profiles to ordering and storage, find all the answers below.
What flavor profiles and tasting notes do specialty coffee roasts have?
Each of our specialty coffee beans has a unique flavor profile and personality. We offer a diverse range of coffee from bright and fruity single-origin coffees to rich, chocolatey coffee blends and everything in between. Whether you prefer bold, full-bodied dark roast coffee or smooth, delicate light roast varieties, we have artisan-roasted coffee crafted for your taste preferences. Every coffee bag includes detailed tasting notes describing flavor characteristics like fruit, chocolate, nut, and floral notes so you know exactly what to expect before you brew. Explore our specialty coffee collection to find your new favorite roast!
What is air-roasted coffee and how does it improve coffee quality?
Air roasting is a premium specialty roasting method where coffee beans are roasted using circulating hot air instead of traditional drum roasting with direct heat. This advanced roasting technique creates several benefits:
- More even roast development with fewer burned or scorched coffee beans
- Cleaner cup profile with brighter, more nuanced coffee flavors
- Extended freshness because air roasting reduces bean density while highlighting inherent coffee characteristics
- Superior quality control for small batch coffee roasting
As a specialty coffee roaster, we use air roasting as our commitment to delivering the highest quality artisan coffee you can taste in every cup.
How fresh is roasted-to-order coffee when delivered?
We roast your coffee to order, ensuring maximum freshness with every bag of freshly roasted coffee beans. Your specialty coffee is typically roasted within 1-3 business days of your order and shipped immediately afterward for fast fresh coffee delivery. You'll receive whole bean coffee or ground coffee at its absolute peak flavor, and every bag is clearly labeled with the exact roast date so you always know when your coffee was roasted. Fresh roasted coffee makes all the difference in achieving café-quality flavor in your daily cup.
Should I buy whole bean or ground coffee, and which grind size is best?
Whole bean coffee is best for freshness—stays fresh for 2-4 weeks vs. 1-2 weeks for ground coffee. We recommend grinding coffee at home just before brewing for optimal flavor. If you prefer convenience, choose ground coffee based on your brewing method:
- Coarse grind: French press coffee, cold brew coffee
- Medium grind: Drip coffee makers, pour-over coffee
- Medium-fine grind: Cone-shaped pour-over, AeroPress coffee
- Fine grind: Espresso machines, espresso brewing
Choosing the right coffee grind size for your brewing method ensures proper extraction and the best coffee flavor. Not sure which grind matches your coffee maker? Reach out to us through our contact us page and we will be happy to help!
How should I store coffee beans to maintain freshness and flavor?
Proper coffee storage is essential for maintaining fresh coffee flavor. Store your coffee beans in an airtight coffee container in a cool, dark place. Your pantry is perfect for storing coffee.
Coffee freshness timeline:
- Whole bean coffee stays at peak freshness for 2-4 weeks after the roast date
- Ground coffee is best enjoyed within 1-2 weeks of roasting
The key to keeping coffee fresh is protecting your beans from air exposure, light, heat, and moisture for consistently flavorful cups. Using an airtight container for coffee storage preserves the natural oils and aromatics that create exceptional coffee taste.
What coffee bag size should I order: 12 oz or 2 lb bags?
Our 12 oz coffee bags are perfect for trying new single-origin coffees, coffee gifts, or sampling different roast profiles, while 2 lb coffee bags offer better value if you're a regular coffee drinker (approximately 32 cups per 2 lb bag).
Choose 2 lb bulk coffee if:
- You brew coffee daily
- You want the best cost per cup
- You've found your favorite specialty roast
Choose 12 oz bags if:
- You want to sample different specialty coffees
- You're buying coffee as a gift
- You prefer variety over volume
Both sizes feature our signature air-roasted coffee that we roast after you order to ensure you experience peak freshness.
