Based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan, Madcap is my roaster of choice. I get a new bag of single origin every 2 weeks, and I’m never disappointed. I brew it on my V60 pour over set up.
Nice, I’ll have to give it a try. We have a few good options in Michigan. Schuil is my go to when I want something special atm.
I’ll order a bag. Thanks for the rec
I’ll definitely give them a try! They do sell weird quantities though. 4oz, 8oz, 2lb, 4lb? Most places I’ve seen sell 12oz or rarely 1lb
Aw yay! They’re my first favorite roaster. I owe my biggest hobby to madcap. I was back in GR recently and got to go get a few cups from there again. They had a quality dip around the start of covid because their head roaster left, but after a year or so they were right back on track. I miss the patch on their bags though!
That’s amazing, thank you for sharing! I don’t think I got in early enough to see the patches.
What is your current favorite roaster?
Here’s the old bag design!
Current favorite roaster is a very difficult to answer question lol. It’s constantly changing but I’m a really big fan right now of Nomad in Barcelona, April in Copenhagen, and Leaves in Tokyo. In the US, I love Onyx in AK and Little Wolf in MA!
I have little wolf’s blue cupping spoon and i really like it.
Oh that bag is a much cooler design, bring it back! You have international taste, I’m inspired. I’ll try the US-based ones first :)
My sister lived there for a while. This was her favorite roaster.
She still orders madcap monthly. Definitely a great roaster!
