Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan, Madcap is my roaster of choice. I get a new bag of single origin every 2 weeks, and I'm never disappointed. I brew it on my V60 pour over set up.

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.

Oh that bag is a much cooler design, bring it back! You have international taste, I'm inspired. I'll try the US-based ones first :)

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!

Great point, coffee is often inherently international! I'll follow your lead and seek out a more global sampling
