FAQs

Sourcing of Coffees/Teas:

We work to find only responsibly, sustainably, and ethically sourced beans and teas. This means we look into the grower and try to get to know them as best we can. We try to avoid corporate owned farms and prefer family owned farms or coops. We tend to order organic and/or rain forest friendly coffees but in order to assure quality, we reserve the right to order the best bean for the job, even if its not certified organic. When it comes to the coffee, we only order specialty grade coffee.

Specialty Grade Coffee

We order only specialty grade coffee, which is the highest rating coffee can get. To be specialty grade the coffee must be almost entirely free of defects and standout in one attribute. You can learn more at the link below: http://www.coffeeresearch.org/coffee/grade.htm

Roasting

Dodger Coffee is small batch roasted by our roasting partner. The beans you order have been roasted with 2-5 days of shipping to assure maximum freshness. We suggest consuming the beans within 2-3 weeks of receiving them for ideal taste.

Shipping

We have negotiated the best rates we can with our carriers. The carriers set the rate at checkout based on what's in your cart. We know for some of you its high. We ship all over the world, build your cart and see what options are available to you based on the weight of the package and where you are shipping to.

Allergy Information

There are NO nuts in our facility. Some of you noticed that we say there are notes of nut mentioned on the bag in the coffee, that is from naturally occurring tastes in the coffee. In fact we don't add anything to the coffee at all!

Some 3rd party products may be made in facilities that process nuts. Double check product descriptions to be sure. If it doesn't mention nuts, it's allergy safe.

Mug/Microwave

The mugs SHOULD be dishwasher and microwave safe. The original mug is a thick, 14 oz porcelain mug. As always, dishes that are hand washed tend to last longer.

Whole Bean/Ground Bean

When ordering the coffee beans, you can choose to have the beans come to you whole, or pre-ground. Whenever beans are ground, some of the oils start to deteriorate faster. For the best cup of coffee, we suggest ordering whole beans and grinding them yourselves with a "Burr Mill Grinder." We don't sell those today but a search on a site like Amazon for this will get you in the right neighborhood.

Candle Care

Our 20oz candles burn for an average of 130 hours. The burn time is found by keeping wicks trimmed to 1/4in before each burn and only burning for 1-2 hours at a time. Not trimming your wicks will result in less burn time.
