Welcome to the Captain's Coffee!
We're your home port for green coffee and home roasting supplies!
Now, that's not ‘‘green’’ like green tea. Green coffee is simply raw, unroasted coffee beans. Please note that we do NOT sell roasted coffee. All our coffee is raw and will need to be roasted before brewing. ‘‘Why buy green coffee,’’ you ask? Well, how does better, more economical, faster and easier sound? And if you really love coffee, freshness is everything.
Important Time Savers:
- Hawaii Department of Agriculture regulations won't allow us to ship raw coffee to Hawaii.
- We do not ship outside the US and its Territories. This includes Canada and Mexico.
- UPS won't deliver to a Post Office Box, and UPS Ground is not an option outside the lower 48.
- We do not ship roasters, grinders, or brewers via US Mail.

You may have heard that coffee production in Colombia is off. Turns out it's WAY off. What started as a nasty rumor has now been made official--production for April is only 60% of April 2008.

El Salvador Cup of Excellence Coffee Sale |

The new crop El Salvador coffees will be arriving soon. We still have two superb 2008 Cup of Excellence El Salvador coffees in stock, so we are offering the San Isidro and Santa Maria at 15% off the regular price. Why? Well, obviously to move them out before they become past crop coffee is one reason, but we also really wanted to offer you an incentive to try some of the best coffee to come out of El Salvador at a reasonable price. Our stocks are not huge, and this offer won't last long, so take advantage of it while you can--before Denny decides to hoard these two coffees for himself! |

We publish a free email newsletter, The Captain's Coffee News. We send it out on a very irregular basis--either when we have something to say, or more likely, when ever we get around to it! The one thing we try to NOT do is send out spam, so we only send the newsletter to people who have told us they'd like to receive it. If you'd like to learn more about roasting, grinding and brewing, coffee and health, and get the latest installment of The History of Coffee, just send us a note to:
This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it
and we'll put you on our mailing list.

Can I Really Roast My Own Coffee? |

Not only is the answer "Yes, you can" but it is also "Yes, you should"! There are a few old hard-heads out there who might not agree, but over and over we hear from people who say their first cup of home roasted coffee is the best cup they've ever had. We certainly think so!
Home coffee roasting does not require a lot of special equipment, it doesn't take a lot of time, and it won't break the bank.

A lot of us are down right Un-American. We refuse to carry credit card debt! For us, the invention of the debit card which took the funds directly and immediately out of our checking account seemed like a good idea and a prudent way to make purchases that required a credit card. While debit cards may be great at places that can "swipe" the card, they may not be such a good thing for internet purchases. Here's why:
