Sey Coffee
It is located along Grattan Street in Morgantown, Brooklyn's Bushwick neighborhood, Sey Coffee is both a coffee shop and roaster. Tobin Polk, Lance Schnorenberg and their co-founders, who are 33 years old, started roasting coffee in a loft on the fourth floor, just across the street, in the year 2011. The name was Lofted Coffee. Local clients included Greenpoint's Budin, and Soho cart services Peddler and Peddler.
Sey's reliance on micro-lots -- or even whole harvests from a single farmer has earned it the praise of knowledgeable New York City coffee aficionados. Last year they made a six-bag micro-lot purchase of Danilo Dones Sitio Catucai 785 from Brazil's Espirito Santo region. The beans were hand-picked at peak ripeness, floated to remove defects, then dry fermented for a period of 36 hours before being dried on the farm. The result is a coffee with hints of berry melon and lemongrass.
Sey's commitment extends beyond its shop to improve the overall wellbeing of staff and farmers, as well as customers. It uses biodegradable disposables and composts, keeping waste out of garbage and converting it into agents that lower harmful greenhouse gases as well as nourish soil. It also eliminates gratuity, which puts baristas into a position to provide their livelihoods and inspire them to concentrate on their profession.
La Cabra
La Cabra, a modern specialty cheap coffee beans brand, was founded in Aarhus in Denmark in 2012. They began with a small shop and a dedicated team. Their honest and creative approach to delivering an extraordinary coffee experience earned them a following, not just in their own town but also around the world.
La Carba has a rigorous procedure for locating their ideal beans, by scouring through hundreds types of coffee beans different varieties each year to identify the ones that meet their standards. They then roast them very lightly, adjusting their desired flavor profile. This results in more clarity and a better taste.
The East Village store opened last October with a sleek minimalist design. It has been praised worldwide by coffee lovers for its precise pour overs and baked goods that are overseen by head baker Jared Sexton, who's previously worked at Bien Cuit and Dominique Ansel.
The shop is equipped with a La Marzocco modbar, and the plates and cups are designed specifically for Wurtz ceramics in Horsens, the son and father studio.

The Plant Coffee Roasting Plant Coffee
The Roasting Plant is a multi-unit coffee retailer roasts and brews the coffee on site. Each cup is brewed and roasted according to your specifications within less than a second. It scour countries far and far for the finest quality specialty beans, which are directly sourced that offer customers a variety and high-quality.
Their onsite roaster uses fluid bed technology, which is quite different from traditional drum-type machines found in the majority of UK coffee houses. The beans are blown about in an enclosed box heated by high-speed air, which keeps the green beans suspended and allows them to be roasted in a steady manner throughout the machine.
I tried the Sumatran coffee and it was delicious with a velvety mouthfeel. Dark chocolate scent was evident and the coffee began to cool while you sipped, subtle flavours of citrus fruit were evident.
The coffee that has been roasted will be transferred to the store's Eversys Super-Automatic Brewing Machines and brewed according to your specifications in under a minute. Customers can choose from a selection of nine single origin choices and a wide range of blends.
Parlor Coffee

Parlor is committed to procuring high-quality coffee beans from around the globe each of which has been through a long and difficult journey before getting into the roasters.
According to their own words, they "have an unrelenting love of craft and a belief that good coffee should be available to everyone." They do just that by creating a simple street space, which includes compost bins, a chalkboard welcome hand-made up-cycled goods, and low-frills deco.
They roast their own blends (there were six at the time I was there) and single-origins. However, they also hold cuppings on Sundays that are open to the general public. Think of it as a brewery tasting room--you can smell and taste the beans, ranging from chocolaty to earthy (one was almost tomato-like!). They're off the beaten track and is worth a visit.
