Top 10 Coffee Questions — New Education Series
After years of pop-ups and tastings, we noticed the same questions coming up again and again. We’re answering them — simply, honestly, and without jargon.
Question #1: What’s the difference between espresso beans and coffee beans?
Short answer: There isn’t one.
Espresso refers to a brewing method, not a different bean. Any coffee can be brewed as espresso — including light roasts. What matters is freshness, rest time, and how the coffee is brewed.
More questions coming soon, including grind size, sour vs. bitter flavors, and the easiest way to upgrade your morning routine. In the meantime: read our FAQ.
Featured Coffee: The Natural
The Natural is a sun-dried, natural-process light roast roasted in New York City. Expect layered sweetness, fruit-forward character, and clarity in the cup — excellent for pour-over, drip, AeroPress, and even espresso.
