☕ - The hot beverage that powers the world!

Coffee gadgets - It's always great to learn about new gadgets. Please share your favorite hardware or full setups. It might inspire newcomers to experiment!

Local businesses - Please promote your local businesses. If you are not the owner of the business you are promoting, kindly ask the owner if it's okay. It would be great if the business has a physical store to include an exterior or interior shot.

Hmmm the roaster I use always has compostable bags, I hadn't even thought of buying any that aren't compostable. Along with using a french press, it's pretty much the closest I can get to sustainable with good coffee. I just compost the coffee grounds separately from the rest.

Are you sure the bag is compostable? The paper bags are often lined with plastic inside.

Edit:

Interesting. I'll look out for these:

They're quite literally plan brown paper bags, no plastic or wax. But we get it ground there and transfer immediately to a tin we use to keep coffee in.
