Frequently Asked Questions about our Monthly Subscription Service
Q. Is there a minimum amount I need to order each month?
A. No, we can deliver as little as one 12 oz bag of coffee.
Q. Do I have to get exactly the same order every month?
A. You can vary your order as much as you want, simply by emailing or calling us or sending a note with your payment. We send out a reminder email each month 1 week before the delivery with your order details and a reminder to let us know if you want to make any changes.
Q. What happens if we are on vacation or end up with a backlog of coffee and don't need coffee delivered?
A. We are very flexible with our subscription service and are happy to stop delivery for a month or more if you notify us.
Q. How do I pay for my coffee?
A. We'll deliver your coffee with an invoice and you can pay with a check after you receive the coffee. We also offer automatic payments with credit card or ACH checking withdrawal options for our monthly customers. Simply fill in this information on the bottom of one of our invoices or contact us for more information.
Q. What if I don't want to get coffee every month but still want coffee delivered or mailed to me now and then?
A. You can also order coffee occasionally. We'll send you the "occasional" version of our monthly email newsletter reminding you of upcoming delivery dates and other coffee news.
Q. Why do you offer a free bag of coffee for new monthly subscriptions?
A. Monthly subscriptions are convenient for us too. It helps us know approximately how much coffee to order from our roaster each month and gives us a good idea what our delivery route will look like. That said, we're all about flexibility. So feel free to order in whatever way makes the most sense to you.
