Figured I’d start a thread and show some of what goes on behind a small coffee company.
Quick intro: I’m Michael. I drive a Super Duty Tremor (wrong forum, I know, but coffee doesn’t care what you drive). My wife Nune and I started Nairi Coffee at our own kitchen counter. She drinks it black, while I drink a latte, and for years we kept buying good beans and making mediocre cups.
Our shop doesn’t have a laser or a press brake. We are a member of a roasters collective, and as a collective we source, profile, and roast our coffee. What we build at home is everything around the bag: a quiz that matches you to a coffee you’ll actually like, a recipe for the brewer you own, and a system that sends the next bag as the last one runs low.
A lot of it got learned the hard way, so I’ll include the mistakes too.
Curious — what do you want to see in here?
