Coffee questions before you buy

Answers about product options, shipping, and purchase terms.
✓ Choose your options✓ Veteran owned✓ Available formats listed above✓ Contact Nathan with questions
Which grind should I choose?
Choose the grind that matches your brewer. Whole bean gives you the most control if you grind at home. We offer pre-ground for all our coffees, which is perfect for most home brewers.
Is this bitter?
Bitterness depends on roast, grind, water temperature, and brew time. Use the taste snapshot and brew guidance above before choosing.
Is this acidic?
Check the roast level, origin, and flavor notes above. If you dislike bright cups, avoid products described as fruity, citrusy, or light.
When is it roasted?
After your order comes in, we roast it and ship it out within 2-4 business days.
Is this a subscription?
One-time purchase is the default. Subscriptions are always optional but ship free and have exclusive discounts.
How long does shipping take?
Shipping times vary and are controlled by the carrier, but generally takes 3-6 days.
How should I store the coffee after it arrives?
Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place away from heat, moisture, and direct sunlight. Avoid the refrigerator, where moisture and food odors can affect the coffee.
Can I change, skip, or cancel a subscription?
When a subscription is selected, its management options and billing terms are shown by the subscription service. Use your customer account or the management link provided after purchase to make changes.
