Can I add merchandise and Limited Edition coffees to my Coffee Club subscription order?

We know you love everything Raven’s Brew®, but do you really need a new T-shirt every week?! Just kidding, you can now add these items to your subscription as a one-time addition! Log into your account and select Manage Subscription.  Within the subscription summary panel, select Add Products. A full menu of all available products will appear. You can also use the search bar to find a specific item. When you choose an item, you'll be given the option to define the quantity, grind and size (for apparel). If the item is available for subscription orders, you'll also be given the choice whether you'd like to Add to this Subscription OR Add to the Next Order Only. Anything added to a subscription (if that's an option) will be given Coffee Club subscription pricing. Anything added as a one-time order will be given regular retail pricing. If you're planning to purchase quite a few things, consider signing up for emails to get access to other promotions and deals!


Can I pause or skip my orders?

You absolutely can, just sign into your account and click Manage Subscription. To Pause your subscription, within the active subscription panel, select Edit and then the last option to Pause future orders. This will change the "Next Order" status to "Subscription is paused." To Skip the next delivery, select Show Details and Manage upcoming orders then Skip order. You can Resume order in the same place. Don’t be a stranger, but you’re welcome to be strange!


I just received an email that my payment failed. How do I update my payment information?

Raven's Brew Coffee® Product FAQs

Where can I buy Raven’s Brew® coffees in the store? Or order it in a café?

So glad you asked! We actually have a super-handy coffee locator embedded in our site! You can find it here.


How much caffeine is in Raven’s Brew® coffees? Do you add any caffeine to any of the coffees?

Caffeine content is always a tricky question to answer definitively, since so many factors can affect the end result in your cup. Some you can control yourself—grind type, brew style, water temperature and roast all contribute to the caffeine level in your cup of coffee. (Oh yeah, and how much water and coffee you use!) Natural variations within the coffee beans themselves are more difficult to control for, although we do know for example that Robusta coffee plants naturally produce more caffeine than Arabica.

We can tell you that our Swiss Water Process Decaf blends are 99.9% caffeine free. At the other end of the spectrum our High-Speed blends like Deadman’s Reach®, Three Peckered Billy Goat® and particularly Double Dead® are blended with beans containing higher natural quantities of caffeine. Results from an independent lab confirmed that an “average 12oz cup of coffee” contains somewhere in the range of 130-155mg caffeine. Conventional Deadman’s Reach® coffee and Three Peckered Billy Goat® coffee both can have over 260mg/12oz cup. And Double Dead® coffee tops our chart at up to 325mg/12oz cup.

All caffeine content in any Raven’s Brew Coffee® blend comes from the coffee beans themselves, with nothing added. We’re all-natural baby!


Are Raven’s Brew® coffees gluten and soy free?

On its own, coffee does not contain gluten or soy. Our coffees are not certified gluten or soy free or tested for gluten or soy, however we do follow FDA best practices in our production facility in order to eliminate any chance for contamination. We don’t process anything other than green coffee in our facility, and employees do not bring food into the production space. While we don’t suspect there to be much chance for contamination prior to us receiving the green coffee, it is hard to say with absolute certainty. We reached out to our importer and they had a similar response—while they cannot guarantee that all the coffee they import is gluten or soy free, they have never heard of coffee and gluten or soy being mixed in the same facility.


Are Raven’s Brew® coffees Organic, Fair Trade or Bird Friendly?

Raven’s Brew Coffee® does offer a line of USDA Certified Organic coffees, you can find them here. We source our coffees as sustainably as possible, and work with an importer that maintains long-term, mutually-beneficial relationships with grow operations and co-operatives that prioritize the wellbeing of their workers.

Certifications like Organic, Fair Trade and Bird Friendly are costly and time consuming to get and are often beyond the reach of smaller operations who are nevertheless following their practices. We do not certify any of our blends as Fair Trade or Bird Friendly, but we do source our coffees from responsible producers who operate with the environment and their employees in mind. They grow the best coffee anyway! If you ever have any questions about the sources for a particular coffee, feel free to contact our customer service team at sip@ravensbrew.com or 1(800)917-2836 Mon-Fri.


Where is Dharma Beans® Coffee?

TO OUR FRIENDS AND CUSTOMERS
When we created the Dharma Beans brand nearly twenty years ago, we did not understand cultural appropriation the way that we do now. In 2020 we recognized that this is not an appropriate brand for us and began the work to transition the product and brand. Recent events have caused us to recognize that we were not acting swiftly enough.

We have stopped selling the coffee and related branded items on our website. We plan to re-introduce the coffee (as it is a favorite) with entirely new branding later in 2024.

We are sincerely sorry for the harm that we have caused. We are particularly sorry for the hurt this has brought to the Hindu community.

Thank you for your continued support as we learn and grow as a company.


Sincerely, Judy Burkhart
Vice President & COO


Is your packaging recyclable?

Unfortunately the laminated polyethylene and foil layers in our packaging that keep the coffee so amazingly fresh are pretty hard to repurpose industrially. But there are plenty of creative types out there who have re-purposed our bags in other ways—using them as planters, making them into wallets and bags, let your creative side run wild! If you think you found a use that we haven’t thought of, we’d love to know about it. Email us at sip@ravensbrew.com


What is the best way to store coffee?

In the name of all the Coffee Gods, not the dreaded fridge! The best place for coffee is in an airtight container, in a dark place at room temperature. The back of a kitchen cupboard is perfect. The key thing to avoid is getting any moisture involved, so dramatic temperature change (i.e., taking it in and out of the fridge every day) is a big no-no. If you have to you can freeze coffee, in the aforementioned airtight container, but ONLY DO IT ONCE. Once you take it out, make sure it stays out.


How fresh is Raven’s Brew Coffee? How long will it stay that way?

As fresh as a daisy! All coffee produced in either of our facilities is bagged as it’s roasted and on its way to a customer within days of being bagged. Our awesome packaging features a one-way valve to let the coffee breathe without outside air getting in, so we guarantee it unopened up to 240 days. We prioritize fresh coffee because what matters is getting you the best cup every time.


Do you offer K-Cups?

Yes! We have Single Serve Cups available for Deadman's Reach® Coffee, Double Dead® Coffee, Three Peckered Billy Goat® Coffee and Wicked Wolf® Coffee. They're compatible with all K-Cup® brewers including 2.0. (K-Cup® is a registered trademark of Keurig Green Mountain, Inc. Raven's Brew Coffee, Inc.® has absolutely no affiliation of any kind with Keurig Green Mountain, Inc.) Order some here!


What does “full body of dark bittersweet chocolate and hazelnuts” mean? Is there chocolate and nuts in the coffee?

Coffee is kind of like wine—but darker, smoother and hotter. The way people talk about them is similar, in that we use tasting notes to describe the flavors of the coffee. Those notes refer to flavor characteristics that coffee nerds like our Coffee Quality Group find in the coffee, we promise you won’t find anything in there except coffee beans.


What is the difference between grinds? Which one should I choose?

For the freshest cup possible we recommend buying Whole Bean and grinding at home. If you don’t have access to a good quality grinder, Raven’s Brew Coffee® can grind your coffee for you to three different specifications:

Auto-drip: a medium grind for regular and automatic drip coffee machines.

Espresso: a fine grind optimized for espresso machines.

Press Pot/Cold Brew: a coarse grind that works well for French Press, Cold Brew and other slow brewing methods.

When grinding your own coffee there is a lot of nuance between grind settings. A good grinder may have as many as 40 settings, some offer even more. Grind size affects the speed of extraction from the coffee into the water, so a fine grind will extract faster and a coarse grind slower. That’s why we use fine grinds for fast brewing methods like Espresso, and course for slow ones like Cold Brew. However, everyone has their own flavor preferences and equipment so don’t be afraid to experiment with adjusting grinds at home to find the perfect one for you and find the best grind that matches your daily grind!


Can you advise me how to brew coffee?

There is differing advice on how to brew your coffee, depending on the character and flavor that you want. Espresso, for example, packs a real punch of intensity; Drip is a great way to brew pots of coffee for sharing; Cold Brew is refreshing on a hot day. Whichever you choose, the most important thing is to use fresh coffee with the correct grind for your chosen method. Read more brewing tips in our Raven's Brew Coffee® Home Brewing Starter Guide. Our customer service team is here to help you choose the right Raven’s Brew® coffee and advise you how to brew your coffee—email sip@ravensbrew.com or call 1(800)917-2836 Mon-Fri. We will happily talk your ear off.


Where is Raven’s Brew Coffee roasted?

Raven’s Brew Coffee® is roasted in Ketchikan, AK for the Alaskan market and Tumwater, WA for the Lower 48. We like to keep our production in locations where coffee is important to the locals so that they can keep us focused (and we can keep them focused too!).
