Coming from the east coast, I’m trying to find that perfect Portland coffee bean to make for my morning ritual. What’s your favorite coffee roaster in the metro area? Bonus points if they do a great espresso on site as well!

The question implies some brand or taste preference will overrule other inputs, which I don’t align with, I mostly look in a price range. Price gouging is out of control and has been couched as inflation but finally the acknowledgement has been hitting mainstream media recently, albeit several years too late. Coffee roasters hardly big oil or anything, but I’m not paying almost $20 for 12 fucking ounces of beans.
I think that’s fair and factors into the conversation but a good roaster can make a huge difference in the quality of a coffee bean. Price is still gonna be a consideration for my regular cup of joe but I do find some joy in branching out and having some other treats.
