Tubbs Coffee Roasters

Tubbs Coffee Roasters is a family-owned small batch roastery in Hayden, in north Idaho. The roaster is a former wine professional, and that background shapes everything: origin coffees are chosen with terroir in mind, and the blends are built post-roast, each component roasted to its own profile before they are combined, with washed coffees for a brighter, cleaner cup and naturals for a fruitier, earthier one. Roasting happens on a small direct-fire Probat drum roaster, about 12 to 13 minutes a batch, with every variable logged and a deliberate aim of never over-roasting. Tubbs is also openly fond of robusta, which shows up for body, crema and caffeine in the MEGA, Cannonball and Double Eagle blends, alongside organic single origins and an EA decaf called The Nihilist. The handmade mugs in the shop are thrown by the owner's aunt Bonnie in her home kiln. Tubbs ships across the US, with free shipping over $50, and offers subscriptions and wholesale.
