Happy to have found a local roaster (self.coffee)

I fortunately have many local roasters in my area, but I found one within walking distance and it isn't stupid expensive (looking at you George Howell, delicious but pricey). And they give me $1 off since I bring my own containers so I don't need a bag. Del's Coffee in Waltham if anyone is in the area!

That's awesome! Glad y'all found one another :)

When I was in Chicago IL USA, I was fond of Stivers Coffee. Solid folk roasting solid beans. https://www.pbs.org/video/labor-love-drives-meticulous-stivers-coffee-operation-quj8xo/

I've got a host of options near me in my new home of Portland OR - there's a lot to try! It's exciting :)

What are some of your favorites in Portland? I never branch out because I get my coffee for free 😂

Lol free is always best!

Honestly, I have yet to find better than Stumptown, but admittedly I have not tried much by way of local beans. Stumptown is nationwide and all, but the Holler Mountain roast always hits right (I typically just make cold brew), even when I was in Chicago! Lol

I have heard good things about Water Avenue though! They're next for me.

What kinda free coffee are you usually drinking? Or are they from mystery beans?

[–] BuckWylde 2 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I haven't had Water Ave in years but it was always good when I had it. I work for Nossa Familia, so that's my source of free beans. Of course I'm biased but I really like our Full Cycle blend for all brewing methods including espresso.

If you like natural processed coffees try out Push Pull. They're in inner SE.

I appreciate the recs, friend :) Nissa Familia and Push Pull are next on my list!
