Hey guys! Alejo here.

So the month of July is a special one. As you know, The Coffee Nerds started as an IG project back in 2015. But last July, I made a decision to dive head first into this coffee project to see what would happen. That's when I created our website, thecoffeenerds.co and we took to Instagram a little more seriously. We started to connect with the coffee community a little more. And you know what? I discovered something...

I really enjoy connecting with other coffee people.

The Coffee Nerds is more than just the taste of coffee or the cool gear we use. It's about the people. And as I've connected with many of you personally, I've heard responses from you such as appreciating coffee as an art form, or enjoying the journey of dialing in the flavors of the coffee's origin. Some of you aren't necessarily into coffee, but you enjoy the community aspect and appreciate it from that standpoint!

Wherever you are on your journey, I am glad you are here! I've got some new projects that I'm planning to announce soon, so I hope you are here for the ride as I continue to connect with other coffee nerds!

What's brewing?

Podcast of the Week

I really enjoyed this conversation with Tim Shenkin on the Let's Have Coffee podcast. Tim shares about his story going into coffee, a little bit on the coffee supply chain, and finally creating Makeworth Coffee - where he owns and operates a roasting facility and coffee shop in Bellingham, WA.

Issue #4 | September 24, 2024 Hey coffee nerds! Why does decaf coffee get such a bad rapport? Sometimes I still hear people say that "if it's decaf, it's not coffee." Honestly, I fell in this group for such a long time. But there seems to be a resurgence of roasters that are actually putting in some work to make decaf a great choice. There are many reasons someone might choose decaf coffee. It could be health related, or related to getting better sleep. Whatever the reason, the main thing...
