Talking Coffee with Stephen Hall
Welcome to Curiocity! Where we seek to understand culture creators in Indianapolis. Today we are stoked to have Steve Hall on the podcast. Steve is the co-founder of Tinker Coffee his bio on the Tinker Website reads: A firm believer in the power of a drip coffee with an espresso shot chaser, Steve is the former wine guy turned software guy turned cafe guy that helps get Tinker Coffee from the roaster to your home. When he's not doing account work, Steve is definitely responding to one million emails.

Steve has a fantastic breakfast, and I highly recommend owning your morning in the way that he does. He highly recommends these burgers which you can buy at Costco: Morning Start Burgers

How his work and struggle with his Yoga practice at The Hot Room Indy has changed how he manages and Tinker.

Indianapolis Cup 2018  was May 2018 and next years will be around the same time!

What happens when Fry from Futurama has 100 cups of coffee. (In the episode I say 300, but the refund was $300)

We finally tackle the caffeine level by roast myth once and for all.

We walk through the entire coffee process. The evaluation process and everything in between.

Which country coffee started in.

The elusive Geisha style

How they deal with the loss of control of their product.

When to quit your job.

 
Some quotes I loved from Steve about coffee:
"Coffee needs struggle to grow and taste great"

"Coffee Started in Ethiopia"

"Our relationship with our accounts is what makes us different than everyone else."

"The most adventourous yet accesible thing, is what people are excited to try"

"We weren't going to let this be unsuccesful because we wanted it so bad."

"The desire to do more..." when talking about when it was time to quit his corporate job and move to entreprenuership.
