To us, the world of coffee is more complex than just a tasty caffeinated beverage to get you going. And pro tip: go on a Tuesday and buy a bag of coffee and you get all kinds of discounts on the beans and coffee - trust me on this.” Nota bene: Wanna try before you buy? You’ll wanna head over to the Lost Arts this Saturday, July 15, where Berman will be demoing the brewer for the caffeinated masses.We're equal parts a passionate horde of amiable amateurs and the back room lounge of the coffee industry. Head to the Monadnock location and get a bag of beans and the most expensive pour-over they offer (and a savory scone by Floriole). ![]() If it weren’t for Intelli, the craft coffee world would not be where it is today. “The gorilla in the room - these guys are definitely the biggest ‘craft roaster’ in Chicago - but they also have over 20 years of quality that they built themselves. Their roasting brand Halfwit kicks out some of the best beans, but the cafe also has a guest roasters available as well, so you can also try an out-of-town perspective.” Intelligentsia “Everyone knows the Wormhole in Wicker Park for the Doc Brown Delorean in the cafe, but they were the first multi-roaster cafe in Chicago when they opened - they take the drinks as serious as the decor. Grab a cortado and kick it at the bar where you get the best view of the room.” Halfwit Coffee Roasters They roast all their coffee in-house and always keep it fresh. “Still my favorite cafe environment in Chicago - their Logan Square cafe just feels comfortable and worn-in in all the right ways. 3 project! If you haven’t been to their cafe on Fulton, stop in and you can peek into the roasting works while sipping on some Nitro cold brew on their huge sidewalk patio.” Gaslight Coffee Roasters We’re working with Metric to select and roast a custom coffee to ship to all backers of the No. “These guys are really making waves in Chicago, popping up in cafes and restaurants all over the place. So we asked Berman himself for his favorite local-specialty roasters, along with the coffee shops where you can pick up their goods. Now you’ve got the perfect brewer, you’ll need the perfect beans. And, of course, we love any kitchen gear that can be proudly displayed on the counter. Also the fact that the size of the carafe can caffeinate a crowd. 3 better than 1 and 2 combined is its versatility. 1 in there somewhere, too, but who cares about tea, right? It was back in 2013 when designer Craighton Berman crowd-funded the Manual Coffeemaker No. A pour-over dripper and French Press kit allows you to brew anyway you choose, while the latter doubles as a make-do cold brew system, which beats the ol’ Mason jar and fine-mesh bag trick. Pro-level drinkers, some details: what you’re looking at is a large-format, 3-in-1 coffee brew system made from the same thermal shock-resistant borosilicate glass as Chemex. Now, for all the deliberation over whether the best cup comes from a Chemex or a French Press, or a Hario V60 or that thing that looks like a Swedish penis pump, we found something better. And yet, there’s still a better way: making your daily cup at home, where you can control the quality (roasts, brew times, gear, techniques) and - most importantly - the price. Sure, there’s still a Starbucks on every corner, but it probably sits adjacent an indie shop hawking beans of a much more rigorous pedigree. Finding a good cup of coffee in Chicago isn’t hard these days. ![]()
