Journal

This journal explores the inspiration behind our latest seasonal and signature drinks. Created by Rhianna Bennie and shaped by ideas from our cafe team. Each beverage brings together the flavors of fall, our coffee offerings, and the creativity of the people behind the cup. With each new season, we receive a new set of opportunities to showcase relationships and coffees we have worked hard to share. Moving through the last...

We cheered along with our team competing in the US Coffee Championships this past April — and we loved the support you gave us! As our way of saying thanks, we wanted to share Uriel’s drink that took him to nationals. We’ve modified it a bit to make it more accessible to at-home creation. The recipe is still complex, but it’s so delicious that it’s totally worth it!

In this episode of Espresso at Home, we teach you how to pull an espresso shot the Madcap Coffee way. Our go-to coffee for espresso is our house espresso blend: Eureka. We roast this coffee with an espresso profile so it pairs great with milk. 

If you want to keep your espresso machine working properly for years to come, it’s important to complete preventative maintenance. Each machine will also require more in-depth maintenance over its lifespan, but with regular cleaning you can ensure that it's working its best day to day.

With the U.S Coffee Championships coming up next month — which our lead roaster Paul is competing in — we wanted to take a moment to look back on last year's competition. We had three semi-finalists: two in the Barista Championship and one in the Brewers Cup Championship.

If you are hosting a party or just having friends over for brunch, there are a few ways you can brew large batches of coffee both efficiently and deliciously.

For our next at-home brew guide, we’re sharing the Madcap brewing method for the AeroPress. This brewer is highly customizable and has tons of different ways to make coffee, so we’re sharing our go-to, which uses the inverse style to make a concentrate.
