Specialty Coffees & Christian Books, to your door.
It isn't just about the Coffee.
It's for waking up slowly on the weekend, to the sounds of birds chirping.
It's for the Parent's preparing to homeschool during those wee hours of the morning.
It's for times of making cookies with the kiddo's, and "having to" taste the dough one more time,... just to be sure it's perfect.
It's for sitting on the back porch together, soaking up the soft sunlight while watching the kiddo's play in the yard.
It's about the memories,
the moments,
the people.
Honestly, is there anything more run than eating Chocolate Cake, Dipping Coffee and Hula Hooping??
This was a fun challenge, even for those of us who discovered that we can't Hula!
Thank you to all who gave it a try this past Saturday, March 22nd.
Welcome to our in home Roasterie.
Surrounded by bags of beans from around the world, this is one of my favorite places.
"What is the purpose of this Coffee?"
That is always my first question I ask myself.
My next questions are: "Do I want the challenge of creating a beautiful Blend, or are we sticking with an incredible single Origin?"
"What Roast level can these Beans take?"
"Are we going for Espresso or Drip?"
"Which Season will this Coffee be for?"
After asking myself these and other questions, the hunt for the perfect Beans are sought out, tried and purchased.
Then I get to work.
Hearing the sounds of my Diedrich IR-5 working hard while the beans roast and tumble around is soothing, and of course the aromas are pretty incredible too.
Then comes the brewing.
This is where it all comes together.
With the sweet satisfaction of the dry and wet aromas of the ground Coffee, the brewing, the mouth feel and the taste.
Then I ask the last, and most important question:
"Did I achieve my goals?"
Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't, But if I don't, it's back to the Coffees I go, making my adjustments and start again.
Blends cannot be rushed, and can take months to create.
People think that Coffee is pretty simple to make. But there is much more to it than most realize, starting with the Farmers. Their dedication and knowledge is the foundation to good, quality Coffee.
I truly enjoy the challenges that each Coffee brings and I thank you for trying them.
Slow weekend mornings, are my favorite.
Just slowing down and enjoying the moments together.
Now that's special.
I think Winter just might be my favorite time for Roasting Coffee.
Cheers to the Home Barista!
Waiting out the snow storm with crackling fires and cozy blankets.
Of course, there will be a few Latte's made for us too.
As always, cheers to the Home Barista!
We just want to thank everyone for all of your support these past four years.
On October 26th, we had a celebration in the Pack's parking lot.
We sipped Coffee, ate Cake from Sugar Whipped Bakery, Hula Hooped and enjoyed simple conversation.
We enjoyed seeing each and every one of you!

Thank you Content KC for this great video!
Slow down,... it's the weekend.
This is a simple , and cheaper way to have Espresso at home!
The Moka Pot costs around $35.00 and creates Espresso on your stovetop.
One thing I shouldn't have done in this video is wash the Moka Pot. Some believe it should stay "seasoned" with the Espresso. So maybe just give it a good rinse instead.
Although it does not steam milk for a Latte, there are items out there that just steam milk. Look up "Milk Frothers" and see which one is best for you!
I'm using our Bold Espresso Blend for this Italian style Espresso.
Just a simple, quiet, morning ride together.
It doesn't get much better than this.
I love making Espresso early in the morning.
It's my quiet time.
Here, I know I'll always have my favorite chair waiting for me,
and a good book on hand.
Theres never a line,
I always have a wonderful view out the window,
and the people here are my favorite.
I guess you could say that Home, is my favorite cafe.

Sadly, these aren't the kind Grandma used to make...
