Cue the skeptical eyebrow raise. But hold onto your barista apron, because we're about to spill the beans (pun intended) on why blending coffee isn't always a bad thing.
The Misconception!?
Blending coffee beans has long been associated with a lower quality brew. The misconception? That roasters use inferior beans to create blends, sacrificing taste for profit margins. But fear not, fellow coffee aficionados, because at I Prefer Craft Coffee, we're flipping the script on blending.
