They Rule the Roast: Friends Team Up to Sell Delicious Coffee Online
Mike Kneffel happened to be at a class reunion in 2018 with Paul Mercieca — a boyhood pal from his old Detroit neighborhood — when he asked if Paul’s brother Joe was still roasting his own coffee.
“Joe’s coffee is really good,” replied Mercieca.
Kneffel recalled that Joe had roasted his own coffee in his basement for more than 20 years. “You ought to try some,” Mercieca said.
