– Slojoy Coffee Roasters –

 

We are Slojoy. We roast our coffee just a few miles from where we brew it. We handwrite notes on every cup. We like single origins. We serve out of a sweet walk-up window. And we are as serious about spreading joy as we are about making good coffee.

 
 
 
 

THE GRAM

There is a lot going on. Sometimes it seems like it just never stops. We know. Life can be crazy. _ _ _ If you need a place to slow down and breathe or just talk some things out, we got you covered. We'll pour you up a good cup of coffee, listen well and leave you with some words of hope!
We are grateful for the countless men and women who have served our country through their sacrifice. Sure, America isn't all we want it to be, but we have no doubt that it is in a better place because of the selflessness of people who have fought for the rights and freedom of others! _ _ _ In obersvance of Veteran's Day we will be closed this Monday. If you have folks around you who have served, make sure to personally thank them. See you all Tuesday!
Meet Rachel, she is new to the team here at Slojoy and will be behind bar throughout the week making you your delicious drinks and serving you with kindness and joy! _ _ _ Here are three fun things about Rachel: (1) She is a vegan (2) She is fluent in ASL (American Sign Language) (3) Her favorite espresso based drink is a Gibraltar! _ _ _ Make sure to stop by next week to say hi, grab a drink and get to know her, we think you'll become good friends!
Two things you can count on here at Slojoy; carefully roasted and brewed coffee in your cup, and a handwritten note to give you some usually much needed encouragement. _ _ _ Spreading joy doesn't have to be rocket science.
Have you ever thought about your life's mission? When everything boils down and is stripped away, what are you living for, what are you trying to accomplish, what do you want to be known for? _ _ _ We decided from the start that we wanted our little dent in this world to be from spreading joy. We knew if we did that right, we could go to sleep at night feeling like we were doing something good, something necessary. _ _ _ Share with us in the comments below how you are making a dent in this world for good and we will pick someone randomly and ship them a bag of coffee on us ✌🏼
We started Slojoy by roasting in our kitchen on a 1lb roaster and doing pour overs at events. _ _ _ We enjoy doing other drinks such as lattes, cappuccinos, cortados, etc. but pour overs will always hold a special place in our hearts. _ _ _ The name Slojoy is the combination of the words "Slow" and "Joy" and it fits the pour over method so well. It causes you to slow down, talk face to face, encourage, listen and laugh. And in our fast-paced society, slowing down is necessary for our souls, for our joy!
