Happy July all!

What an incredible summer we are having in Texas.  Everyday it seems that we are breaking records and none of these are the type that we get a trophy for.  We leased a couple of event type air conditioners this summer in order to help regulate the temperature in our roast room.  They help a whole lot but when it is 110 outside keeping a regulated temperature is difficult.  Right now, we are staggering the roast schedule for the roast team so that everyone gets a paid day off during the week in order to rest and hydrate at home, hopefully in the air conditioning.  We have also asked our customers to order what they actually need and not “stock up” right now in order to reduce roasting hours.

In the meantime, iced drinks are super popular!  We have fans and misters outside under the tent to help keep folx comfortable.  Come on by and enjoy a cold beverage!  For those folx who prefer hot coffee, no worries, we have lots of choices.

Rc continues to improve and heal.  He is talking some now and asking questions which is exciting.  He continues to work on mobility and everyone is very confident that it will happen but again it takes time.  He has the capability; he just has to build up his strength.  He remains pretty vulnerable to illnesses so right now his visitors are still restricted.  Once he gets a bit stronger, he will love having folx come by to say hi!

Again, we hope everyone is getting a chance to enjoy the summer, swim in the springs and cool off with a delicious Coffee Trader’s cold brew or one of our summer drink specials.  Take care all,

Beth and Rc
