Why brew your own coffee?
The ritual of drinking coffee has been a shared experience across human societies for thousands of years - it’s one of the most universal human traditions. In today’s fast-paced modern life, we’ve lost some of the appreciation for this experience, and our taste buds, wallets, and wellbeing have paid the price. By choosing to brew our own coffee, we discovered that with a bit of learning and patience, the benefits are truly transformative. Here’s why you should brew your own coffee:
The Art of Slowing Down
Brewing your own coffee satisfies more than just a caffeine craving, it’s about creating a ritual that starts your day with intention. Taking a few moments each morning to grind your beans, boil water, and brew your coffee helps to center your thoughts and establish a routine that can bring calm and focus. This simple act can be a form of mindfulness, allowing you to savor the present moment and set a positive tone for the day ahead. Make your morning coffee a ritual, and you’ll find as much joy in the process as in the final cup.
Sip Superior: The Case for Home-Brewed Quality
There’s nothing quite like the taste of freshly brewed coffee, and when you make it yourself, freshness is guaranteed. Coffee starts to lose its flavor and aroma as soon as it’s ground, so when you brew at home, you’re ensuring that every cup is as fresh and delicious as possible. Brewing your own coffee serves as a way to taste the bean as it was intended, highlighting diverse flavor notes. Brew & Bond beans are roasted to order guaranteeing freshness. All of our beans are single origin which carry unique flavors, distinctive qualities, and an environmental story in each cup. Brew quality coffee, just the way you like it!
Ditch the Drive-Thru: Your Wallet Will Thank You
Reimagine your daily coffee routine and watch the savings pile up. A daily Starbucks run can cost a pretty penny - an average of $4.50 per drink, which totals about $1,642 annually if you’re a regular. Contrast this with brewing your own coffee: a $20 bag of Brew & Bond coffee can brew approximately 24 cups of coffee, costing only $0.83 per cup. Even while brewing every day, this totals $303 per year, totaling over $1,300 in savings. While there is an up front cost associated with the brewing process you choose, you are certainly saving money in the long run. Why spend more when you can ditch the drive-thru, brew your own better coffee, and keep your wallet happy?
Busting the Coffee Myth: It’s Easier Than You Think
Many people think brewing your own coffee is a time-consuming hassle, but it’s actually quite the opposite! In just 5 minutes, a French press can deliver a rich, satisfying cup. A pour-over takes about 5 to 6 minutes, perfect for those who love a clean, flavorful brew. The coffee dripper is even quicker, delivering you a fresh cup in just 4 to 5 minutes. These methods are fast, simple and ideal even for those with the busiest schedules. Our job at Brew & Bond is to break down the barriers for everyday coffee drinkers, allowing all of you to participate in the community that is coffee drinking.
From Brew to Bond: Coffee as a Social Catalyst
Coffee has the power to bring people closer, and brewing your own coffee enhances this communal experience. Gathering around a pot of freshly brewed coffee can spark conversations, create traditions, and strengthen relationships. From Sunday morning brunches with loved ones to coffee clubs and virtual meet-ups, brewing your own coffee offers countless opportunities to connect with others. From Brew to Bond, we aspire to create a community of coffee lovers that can share connection over a cup of joe.
