WHO THIS IS FOR

THIS IS FOR:

  • People whose entire coffee setup fits in a jacket pocket.
  • Sunrise-on-a-ridge people.
  • Bottle-of-cold-brew-at-the-trailhead people.
  • Anyone who has ever quit coffee mid-trip because the cleanup won.
  • Minimalists headed somewhere unexplored.

THIS IS NOT FOR:

  • Anyone who enjoys scrubbing a french press in a cold stream.
  • People who lug too much gear up the mountain.
  • Collectors of brewing equipment that needs its own bag.

You, a sachet, and a sunrise. That is the whole kit.

EVERYTHING MUST GO.

Most companies sell everything off at the end. We are selling everything at the beginning. Four coffees, presold, and every order funds the first roast (A going-INTO-business sale. We may have invented a category.)

EVERYTHING ON THIS PAGE IS AVAILABLE THROUGH SEPTEMBER 21.

After that the going-into-business sale is over, because we will be in business.

SOURCE ENERGY

ALPINE MERMAID

The night shift.

  • 12 SACHETS
  • MAKES 12 MUGS
  • $3 A MUG

$36

PRE-ORDER

Presale. Ships the last week of September.

OVERNIGHT APPROACH

Built for the big bottle.

  • 4 SACHETS
  • BREWS 4 LITERS
  • 12 GLASSES, $3 EACH

Zamorana natural, Poas, Costa Rica, 1,500 masl, medium roast. One sachet in a 1 liter bottle overnight. Real cold brew, not concentrate. We named this one ourselves.

$36

PRE-ORDER

Presale. Ships the last week of September.

THE MATH, ONCE.

Every pack is $36 and makes about 12 drinks. A hot sachet holds 15g of coffee and makes one mug in 5 minutes. A cold sachet holds 72g and brews a full liter overnight. Cold brew simply takes more coffee per drink. That is extraction, not a pricing strategy.

STEEP END SAMPLER

The smallest way in.

  • 4 SACHETS
  • 2 HOT
  • 2 COLD BREW

The smallest way to find out whether this is for you. Ships after launch. Presale packs ship the last week of September; sampler follows.

$18

AFTER LAUNCH

Available through September 21.

HOW MANY MACHINES DOES IT TAKE TO MAKE OUR COFFEE?

(We keep counting. It keeps being zero.)

  • HAND-ROASTED

    Every batch roasted by one person in Aurora, Colorado. Not a contract roaster. Him.

  • REAL COFFEE

    Specialty-grade lots from the same sourcing behind Iddy Umpty. A sachet is a format, not an excuse.

  • HOT OR COLD

    One format that makes hot coffee in five minutes or cold brew overnight. Your move, weather.

  • KNOWN ORIGINS

    First lots from Costa Rica and Honduras, from the same producer relationships behind Iddy Umpty's lineup. Meet the producers

BE FIRST AT THE DEEP END.

One list. Occasional email. A head start before the first run sells out.

QUESTIONS

What is this, actually?

A sachet of ground specialty coffee in a filter you steep. It works like tea and tastes like coffee because it is coffee.

Hot or cold?

Both. Five minutes in hot water, or overnight in cold water for cold brew.

Who is this for?

You, a sachet, and a sunrise. That is the whole kit.

When does it ship?

The four packs are presales and ship the last week of September. The email list hears about everything else first.

How long can I buy this stuff?
