Hi. I’m Ray. And I’m Kandace. And this is Unpacking Coffee.
For a few years, that meant a video show. We’d open a bag, talk about the design, and interview the roaster. Then COVID happened, and it turns out we really liked doing interviews in person. So we stopped. We didn’t stop drinking coffee, obviously. That would be insane.
But we’d taste something great, not write it down properly, and three bags later have absolutely no idea what we actually liked. Notebooks got lost. Spreadsheets felt like homework. Apps for professional cuppers felt like insurance forms. So we built something.
Your scores and private notes stay yours. The flavors you taste join a shared record that fills out coffee and roaster pages for whoever tastes them next. Think Untappd, but without the leaderboard, and without checking in at an Applebee’s.
There’s a feedback button on every page. We read everything. If you’ve ever finished a bag, loved it, and then completely blanked on what it was called, we made this for you.
