Coffee has always been about connection. The coffee shop brings people together inspiring conversations and playing a role in developing relationships that promote growth in a community.

Within the industry we have events and we also have various forms of media that also bring us together around ideas and inspire conversations around topic both directly and indirectly related to coffee. Among the many publications and sources facilitating these conversations there is one that has consistently endeavored to challenge, enlighten, and enhance the life of the reader through their print only magazine.

I am thrilled to welcome back to the show, Luke Adams, Editor-in-Chief of the award-winning print-only Standart Magazine. In this conversation we will be talking with Luke about the recent book Standart produced looking back on 10 years of coffee journalism and what themes, lessons, and insights are the most salient for us in today's coffee community.

I love the depth Standart brings and the format that together promotes a thoughtful dialogue around issues that deserve our best attention.

We discuss:

Balancing Challenge and Comfort in Content
How Coffee Communication has Evolved
Empowering Producers
The Role of Baristas
Optimism in the Coffee Industry
Maturation of Perspectives
Diversity and Transparency
Fair Compensation in Coffee
The Ripple Effect of Thoughtful Journalism
