Ever wondered why blending coffee beans gets a bad rap? Picture this: you're at your favorite coffee shop, scanning the menu for your morning pick-me-up, and you come across a blend. Cue the skeptical eyebrow raise. But hold onto your barista apron, because we're about to spill the beans (pun intended) on why blending coffee isn't always a bad thing.
The Misconception!?
Blending coffee beans has long been associated with a lower quality brew. The misconception? That roasters use inferior beans to create blends, sacrificing taste for profit margins. But fear not, fellow coffee aficionados, because at I Prefer Craft Coffee, we're flipping the script on blending.
You see, blending isn't about cutting corners or compromising on quality. It's about creating a symphony of flavors that dance on your palate with every sip. But here's the kicker: not all blends are created equal. While some roasters may skimp on quality, we're raising the bar by using only q-graded excellent coffees in our blends.
