Our Coffee

Thoughtfully sourced. Freshly roasted. Independently tested.

ProperBrew coffee is sourced from respected growing regions around the world, roasted fresh in small batches, and independently tested for purity and quality. Our collection focuses on smooth, approachable coffees selected for balance, drinkability, and character in the cup.

Great coffee should taste exceptional and be something you feel good about drinking every day.

That's why ProperBrew focuses on three things:

  • Selecting coffees for flavor and character.
  • Roasting to highlight what makes each coffee unique.
  • Independently testing for purity and quality.

Independently Tested For Purity

Coffee quality isn't just about taste.

As a natural agricultural product, coffee can occasionally be exposed to contaminants during growing, processing, storage, or transportation.

Our roasting partner works with accredited third-party laboratories to independently test coffee for heavy metals, mycotoxins, mold, and yeast using recognized FDA and AOAC analytical methods.

  • Heavy Metal Tested

    Independent laboratory testing verifies non-detectable levels of lead, mercury, cadmium, and arsenic in tested coffee lots, helping ensure every cup meets high standards for purity and quality.

  • Mycotoxin Tested

    Independent testing screens for a broad panel of naturally occurring mycotoxins that can occasionally affect agricultural products. No detectable levels were identified in tested coffee lots.

  • Mold & Yeast Tested

    Independent microbiological testing verifies exceptionally low mold and yeast levels in tested coffee lots, supporting freshness, consistency, and quality in every cup.

Sourced For Flavor

Great coffee begins long before roasting.

Our coffees are sourced from respected coffee-growing regions around the world and selected for their balance, consistency, and drinkability.

We look for coffees that are smooth, approachable, and enjoyable to drink every day, coffees that deliver character without harshness and flavor without bitterness.

Every coffee earns its place in the ProperBrew collection for one simple reason:

it's worth brewing again tomorrow.

Roasted To Highlight The Coffee

Every coffee has something different to offer.

Some bring softer sweetness and subtle fruit characteristics.

Others develop richer chocolate, caramel, and toasted nut notes through darker roasting.

Rather than applying a single roasting philosophy to every coffee, each ProperBrew offering is roasted to suit its own character and intended drinking experience.

The goal isn't to make every coffee taste the same.

It's to let every coffee taste like the best version of itself.

Roasted Fresh

Coffee is best enjoyed fresh.

Our coffees are roasted in small batches close to the time of ordering rather than spending months sitting in warehouses or supermarket stockrooms.

That means more aroma, more flavor, and a better cup.

A Smaller Collection, Chosen Carefully

You'll notice we don't offer dozens of coffees.

That's intentional.

Proper Brew was designed around a focused collection that offers something for different tastes and brewing methods without overwhelming choice.

From low acidity coffees designed for smoother everyday drinking to richer espresso-style roasts and smooth decaf options, every coffee has earned its place in the lineup.

Quality over quantity.

Always.
