You might have noticed already, but there have been a few changes to the Timely Coffees website. After giving our overall online presence some deep considerations, we decided a few things needed updating. We've revised everything from the design to the layout, and this makeover has given us a new level of focus. So what can you expect from the new timelycoffees.com.au?
What if you could wake up in the morning, press one button, and have ethical, transparent, delicious, sustainable coffee pouring right into your favourite mug?
A lot has changed in the past 12 months, this much we already know. Lockdowns and physical distancing altered the way we interacted with each other.
At Timely, one of our core values is "Be Generous". For us, this can mean many things, from how we handle customer requests* to how we treat our suppliers. This means we spend a lot of time thinking about how we can give more to our customers and support other small businesses.
At Timely Coffees, we have a clearly defined vision for what we are, who we want to be, and who we aim to serve. Not only this, but we also have a clear roadmap on how we feel we are going to reach this goal. And it all starts with a simple idea: Timely Coffees is not for everyone.
I think it's safe to say that we've all found ourselves in this situation: we're walking along, minding our own business, when someone pushes a sample of some product or another toward us and says, "have you tried this?".
Today is International Women's Day, a day of recognition that celebrates women's achievements. But IWD is also an opportunity to raise awareness of the ongoing issues of gender-based bias and discrimination that women continue to face and how we can take action to overcome them for equality.
The Timely Coffee Shop is now open. Whether you need coffee to takeaway, one to dine-in, some advice on the best coffee to drink at home, or a cinnamon scroll, we’re here for you.
Today, November 20th, is the International Transgender Day of Remembrance.
Roasting is often solitary work. I find it's the perfect time for me to listen to podcasts. Here are some of the podcasts I listen to on a regular day of production roasting.
If you've ever looked over a box of Timely coffee, you'd have noticed that we have one side of our packaging dedicated to our values.
It's been a busy few months here at Timely, as we're sure you've noticed. New coffees, new branding, new packaging, and so much more.
One of the most noticeable features of Timely Coffees is our coffee colours. Whether you're looking through the catalogue on our website or a shelf at one of our cafe partners, you'll see an array of coloured labels.
There's nothing quite like the smell of fresh ground coffee in the morning. In fact, science has shown that the smell of coffee alone can have a stimulating effect.
You may have encountered coffee packaging in the past which has included terms such as "wet process", or "natural process", or "honey". In recent times, you may have even seen new terminology on coffee packaging, such as "extended fermentation", or "lactic fermentation".
At Timely, we know there are two big problems with buying coffee to use at home.
The best thing about the coffee industry is that there are very few rules. In particular, the world of "Specialty Coffee" is so young that we are only now finding out the best way to do certain things.
To say there have been a few changes at the roastery over the past 12 months would be an understatement. We've seen new coffees come through our doors at a record pace, we've had new staff members join the team, and the Timely Coffee Shop finally opened its doors.
