Sean Bonner at Boing Boing shares the news about Coffee Common, a community of coffee roasters and baristas getting together to advocate for good coffee.

This wouldn’t be advertising for a single company, it would be advertising for coffee itself. But does anyone really need to learn about something as ubiquitous as coffee? And would something this weird even be possible? Turns out the short answer to both questions is yes.

It’s nice to see premium roasters and specialists banding together like the big corporations usually do. Coffee is the best thing Nature’s ever done for us, so this is a good thing in my book.

Right now, I’m very happy grinding some Gorilla beans (Brooklyn’s own) and throwing them in my AeroPress. If there’s a simpler way to make a good cup of coffee, I haven’t found it.
