Coffee Is Culinary

At Nor'west Coffee's Java Nation you won't find push button espresso machines a trained monkey can operate. We rigorously teach and follow the "four-Ms" of espresso: Miscela (coffee blend), Macinacaffe (grinder), Macchina (espresso machine) and Mano (skills of the barista). High quality espresso is not a set it and forget it affair! We continuously monitor our shots adjusting grind, dose, water temperature and volume as enviromental factors like humidity and ambient heat change, as the the beans rest day to day, and for each specific blend and SO (single origin) offered. We constantly strive for the highest shot quality. And if the shots not right, we dump it. That's right, we throw away not serve inferior espresso!..........Whether a Traditional espresso, macchiato or cappuccino or an American espresso based desert style beverage like a mocha made with our custom made chocolate sauce we boast "The Best Espresso in Beaverton" and back it up in every cup. Agree or it's Free...........If your beverage calls for steamed milk rest assured we always steam fresh milk for each beverage to maximize it's silky sweet texture. You'll never see us re-steamed milk or giant stiff soap bubbles in you cup! Each cup is topped by free poured latte art only proper milk texturing allows. The taste difference is night and day, and that's what counts.
