Pours built on this roast

House Espresso

The calibrated heart of Pacific Roots

Dial grind until the shot runs sweet at 25–30 seconds; sour means finer, harsh means coarser.

Basecamp Latte

The all-day house latte

Steam to a wet-paint texture — sweetness peaks near 145°F and dies past 160°F.

Campfire Cappuccino

Feathery foam, espresso backbone

A third milk, a third foam, a third espresso — stretch the milk early and long.

Trail Americano

Clean strength. Long finish.

Pouring the shot over the water preserves the crema and keeps the cup from going flat.

Steady as the peaks, smooth as the trail ahead—fuel your day, elevate every moment.
