CURATED SUBSCriPTIONS

HOW IT WORKS

What's included in a subscription plan?

Every subscription order includes...

  • 12oz bag of whole bean coffee
  • shipping (or local delivery)
  • digital Coffee Card
  • personalized notes

My notes include details of the growing process, how I sourced it, and brewing tips.

Each coffee in context with your plan.

What is a Coffee Card?

Coffee Cards are digital infographics that I prepare for every coffee release. They feature a story or two that situates it within my broader coffee-buying philosophy.

This is also where I put the pictures provided by coffee producers and importers.

Sent by email within a week of fulfillment.

Can I edit my plan?

Yes!

On Minimum Wage Tim's Subscription Portal, you can change the volume or frequency of your deliveries.

Pause or skip whenever you need a break.

Does Minimum Wage Tim's offer Certified Organic coffees?

The short answer is no.

While some of my producer partners have invested in the certification process, many lack the significant resources required. It can take up to 3 years and tens of thousands of dollars. Farmers must bankroll travel/lodging for inspections twice yearly to maintain a USDA Organic Seal.

The truth is - most of the world's coffee grown without pesticides is not Certified Organic.

I started a new plan. When will I get my first delivery?

Every Wednesday afternoon, I personally roast every order created since the previous Thursday. I pack and ship everything that night.

I also roast for subscribers due up in the next week that selected the 'Rested' option for their plan.

How do I use my Coffee Compass?

Ask Tim for the Coffee Compass discount code - valid for BOGO 12oz bags

WHAT TO EXPECT

Minimum Wage Monday newsletters will arrive in your inbox every week or two. Always on (you guessed it) Monday.

The information I share with you there will apply to ALL specialty coffee settings, from the grocery store to your local cafe.

Of course, I use my own coffees as illustrations. I know them the best.

Everything is written by a real human guy... that's me (Tim).

When you learn how coffee is grown, processed, and exported, you can start making it personal.

THE REVIEWS ARE IN!

  • "As a coffee professional, I can confidently recommend Minimum Wage Tim’s! Every profile is interesting and beautifully developed, highlighting farmer to cup— the epitome of third wave coffee. Tim sources truly great coffees and the whole team is a crew of gems!"

    Maddie T.

  • “Minimum Wage Tim’s beans never disappoint. It’s a treat to get a fresh bag of Tim’s choice delivered to my house each month. The details about the beans, their origins, the processes, and the farmers behind it are an added plus if you are a coffee nerd or an aspiring coffee nerd (me) or just someone looking to explore what coffee can actually taste like."

    Kyle G.

  • "Tim’s coffee is one of the best I have ever had! He is a local roaster of Minneapolis but ships to me in Tennessee. The flavor notes on all of his “Roaster’s Choice” beans are fantastic. Definitely worth the try if you enjoy a good pour-over and looking for beans with bold flavor."
