This bag feeds a shelter cat for 7 days. per bag
We send money, not kibble. Shelters put it where it's needed that week: food, vaccines, spay and neuter, a vet bill.
Every order this month supports Freeman-Fritts Vet Clinic & Shelter.

The coffee
What it tastes like.
- You'll like it if
- you love Bean's and want to try an organic version; same sweet, creamy shot that's just as good in a latte.
- Maybe not if
- you want a dark, smoky espresso with real bite; that's Sebastian's.
Getting it right
How we'd brew Oscar.
Our philosophy? If it tastes good, it is good. These are some of our guidelines for how to get a great cup, but don't treat them as gospel. Treat them as a suggestion.
- We'd start hereEspresso
Pack finely ground coffee tightly into the portafilter and lock it into the machine. Aim for 1:3-3.5 ratio of coffee to espresso in 25-35 seconds. Grind finer to increase brew time.
- Drip
Add medium grounds to the machine's filter basket, fill the reservoir with cold water, and hit start. The machine heats the water and drips it through the bed automatically, usually in about 5 minutes. If brew time is too fast, grind finer or add more grounds.
- French Press
Add medium-coarse ground coffee to the carafe, pour in hot water (around 200°F), and stir. Let it steep for about 4-6 minutes, then press the plunger down slowly and serve right away. Grind finer for more strength.
Start with 1 oz of coffee per 20 oz of near-boiling water
- Too weak
- Add coffee before you add time. Longer brewing makes it bitter, not stronger.
- Too bitter
- Grind a little coarser, or let the water sit thirty seconds after it boils.
