The best coffee products May 2019
By Carla Snuggs
It’s no secret, that I am addicted to coffee! It is my blood type! My birthstone is a coffee bean! So, I’ve decided to regularly feature some of the best coffee, coffee accessories, coffee machines and the latest in brewing techniques on monthly basis. This month, I’ve found some incredible new brands and accessories and I am so happy to share them with you!
Terra Kaffe
Terra Kaffe is a new D2C coffee brand. They built a new fully automatic espresso machine that brews from fresh whole beans. Just one touch for a perfect cup with no needless waste from pods or capsules. It brews a full range of espresso drinks (cappuccinos, lattes and more) with all features from milk, to bean grind, temperature, to water firmness all customizable to the user. Built with elegant operation and European design in mind.
What I love about Terra Kaffe:
Free home delivery
30-day free trial
In-house customer support
Terra Kaffe was inspired by one of the co-founders poor shopping experience seeking a new espresso machine. He was looking for a machine that would be convenient enough to fit into a busy lifestyle while also not having to resort to pod-based coffee, but found no suitable alternative. Terra Kaffe was founded with the ambition to offer people an option to graduate away from their Nespresso machines and conveniently enjoy the taste of freshly ground & brewed espresso coffee in the comfort of their home.

Grumpy Goat
Much like wines, coffee is graded by professional cuppers and only beans that are rated 86 points or higher (on scale of 100) are designated as "gourmet." Grumpy Goat only imports coffee beans rated as gourmet. It is not easy for shoppers to always know if their coffee is commercial grade vs gourmet grade and fancy packaging can be deceptive. Grumpy Goat offers bi-weekly or monthly shipment programs. Brian Abernathy is the founder and master roaster of Grumpy Goat Coffee, located in Bonita Springs, Florida. Grumpy Goat Coffee was founded in 2016 with the goal of making freshly roasted, single origin and gourmet grade coffee both exciting and approachable. Brian focuses on coffee that is high altitude, 100% Arabica and is fully traceable. Examples of regions he imports these high quality beans from include Ethiopia, Peru, Sumatra, Honduras and several others. Shop: Grumpygoat.com
Angels’ Cup
Angels' Cup, a blind coffee tasting club with a mission to help people develop their sense of taste. The Black Box is a collection of coffees from third wave roasters.Each coffee is blindly labeled and a number on the bag matches a card included in the box so the taster can identify each coffee's origin, roaster, and some tasting notes. Anyone can use their free app to record their tasting notes and compare answers with the roasters and other users. Shop Angelscup.com
Trade Coffee Company
Trade Coffee Company offers a great coffee subscription service for the coffee lover who wants to try a variety of roasts or isn't quite sure what to try next. Simply begin by taking their short survey so they can assess your coffee preferences. They will then make a recommendation for you based on your tastes.
To date, they've helped match millions of people with the perfect coffee for them. If you already know what kind of coffee you like, they have an extensive selection of more than 400 roasts from over 50 craft roasters which you can also subscribe to receive as often as you'd like. The price varies depending on the coffee you select and how often you'd like to receive shipments, but starts at $12.50 per 12oz bag.
