What's Brewing?
May Features
With your help, we raised a total of $2,504.70 for Voces de la Frontera DACA Scholarship Fund! These funds help offset the cost of DACA renewals which need to be tackled every two years for DACA recipients. As many of you know, we ourselves know what this feels like to have to pay hundreds of dollars every two years in order to be afforded (very) limited rights. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you! <3
June Features
Happy Pride!!! <3 <3
One of my personal favorite months is here and we're ready to celebrate ALL MONTH LONG 🌈
This month, proceeds of our monthly specials are going to our friends at Courage MKE, who provide safe and inclusive housing, trauma-informed care catered to the LGBTQ+ community, education, and reliable data-supported thought leadership. You can learn more about them or donate directly here. You can find those specials highlighted on our menu, but here's a little taste:
Mandarin Espresso Jarrito
Agua de Guayaba
Lovers' Paradise
Brekky Crunch Wrap
Friday Fish Tacos
Your friendly neighborhood Microroaster
One of the many cool things to happen in 2024 is our (finally) operating Bellwether Roaster. Standing just over 6' tall, this pretty lady is handling all of our roasting operations IN HOUSE!
We're so excited to be partnering with Bellwether on this new chapter of our business. A fully electric, completely ventless design, this roaster helps to eliminated eliminate billions of pounds of CO2e in the coffee roasting process.
There's much more to come with this awesome news so stay tuned! <3

We are so very thrilled to be partnering with David Emmanuelle Castillo from We Will All Rise to host monthly Read Aloud Sessions.
We Will All Rise's "I Can Teach" is a teacher residency program for Black and Brown boys ages 18-24. The areas of focus for the program are workforce development, diversity & representation to mitigate inequities in Early Childhood Education (ECE), and encouraging teaching as a viable career option.
Join us on Saturday once a month for one of two sessions available (2pm or 3:30pm). Children and their parents will work on dialogical reading as well as other ECE competencies. Sessions will be led by David as well as program fellows, and you can learn more about the program here!
