Are you a coffee lover? What if I told you there's so much more to coffee than just enjoying the ritual and drinking it? What if I told you there's a whole world to explore, and it all starts with looking beyond your cup? That's what The Coffee Podcast sets out to do. In the first 20 or so episodes, we discussed how to brew better coffee, but now, 8 years in the making, we focus on People-Focused Coffee Talk. Join us in the conversation as we learn about history, science, art, and more through the lens of coffee!

E182 | Scrappy Specialty
The story of Metric Coffee is compelling, inspirational, and challenges the status quo of the modern coffee company as they are “Guided by Quality, Radical Transparency and the Transformative Power of a Fair Price to Producers.” If you have had a cup of coffee from Metric you have tasted Metric’s rich decade old story. But the sensory experience does not reveal the full value behind the cup. In this conversation we sit down with Xavier Alexander and learn what it cost him and his loved ones to pursue their coffee dream.
