Welcome to Covabrelli Coffee
“What kind of coffee do you like?” is one of those loaded questions that I’ve received a variety of responses. From those who say “I love the smell, but I just don’t like the taste.” To others who confess “Any coffee that’s hot and wakes me up in the morning is fine by me,” coffee serves as an interesting conversation starter, especially here in the Northwest. My favorite response so far came from a man I’ve gotten to know through the Tumwater Farmer’s Market. He said with a smile, “You know Lou, life is too short to drink bad coffee.” This phrase has stuck for us. In all that we do—from finding exceptional organic & sustainable coffee to roast, to delivering our coffee to people as fast as possible, to how we educate our customers on the finer points of coffee preparation—our goal is to enable the average coffee drinker to enjoy excellent coffee every day. Whether at home or at the office, Covabrelli Coffee is here to help you discover the joy that comes from coffee that’s fresh, flavorful and worth the extra effort of grinding it right before brewing. read more
Finding a coffee that’s a match
One of the first questions someone new to Covabrelli Coffee asks me is, “What’s your favorite coffee?” I admit that trying a new coffee–in a culture where people can easily be overwhelmed with coffee lingo, unfamiliar terms and confusing descriptions–is challenging indeed. Even coffee drinkers here in the Northwest who are pretty coffee savvy often need a bit of information and encouragement to try something new. So instead of me telling you which coffees I like best and why, let me ask you a few questions that will hopefully inform your coffee buying in the future.
Every coffee has a story; so here’s one of ours
What does coffee, a land of volcanoes, the Mayan culture and extreme poverty all have in common? The answer is the country of Guatemala. For coffee lovers, Guatemala is known for producing some the best tasting, most flavorful coffee in the world. But what most people don’t realize is that though they may pay a premium for this exceptional coffee, those growing coffee are some of the poorest of the poor in Central America. read more
How to prepare excellent coffee at home or at work
Anyone who drinks coffee can testify to that harsh, biting, sour, upset stomach feeling that bad coffee brings. While we don’t claim to know exactly why bad coffee tastes so bad, Covabrelli can help you discover a method of preparing coffee that will help you experience the best cup of coffee possible each day. To begin, find a good source of fresh roasted coffee. If our “current offerings” don’t match your needs, look around for a coffee company that can provide you with coffee within a few days of being roasted. Avoid buying coffee that’s old—especially the kind you see in those bulk bins. No matter how good your brewing techniques are or the equipment read more
