A great bean for a french press!

Checked out the Stone Creek Coffee Roasters yesterday at the Grand Avenue Mall skywalk. They are a Milwaukee coffee roaster we've been following for a couple of years now. I am considering using their beans in the in-store coffee we offer. Thanks to Kate for a nice tour of the 'factory', where they roast the beans. I use the word 'factory' very loosely, as the space they use for the nerve center of their operations is in a building much like our store (dating from the 1880's) and with lots of exposed walls and floors. It's very much a hands on organization, and we were welcomed at the 'new' store' and later at the factory by owner Eric Resch, who seemed somewhat surprised we would travel from Delavan for the Grand Opening. But, timing is everything, and I had been following their mission and decided it was a good fit for us. I will be sampling a couple different beans in the next week, so come on in and ask for a FREE cup of Stone Creek Coffee with any lunch order, fill out a comment card and receive a 15% coupon on your next Brick Street Market purchase.
