In The Beginning There Was Coffee And It Was Good

 Hi everyone, since it is shortly after Christmas and I just wrote a blogpost about a new coffee shop in Shingle Springs, what if I told you that there is a new coffee roaster in Shingle Springs also. It is called Genesis Coffee Roasters and it is located at 4261 Sunset Lane near the Delta Bedding Store. It is owned by Alex Parker, the main boss and roaster, and her husband Kyle, who brews the coffee. Alex started the business in April of 2022 in her garage using a 1 kilo coffee roaster, which is now called Uno in the shop, as a fun hobby Alex hadn't done before and wanted to try it out. When the business outgrew the original roaster machine and the garage, they decided to open their own shop in town in September of 2024 and buy a second coffee roaster, a 15 kilo Mill City roaster. They currently vendor to 20 shops around- 10 of them are regular coffee shops, including to the Wisegals Coffee Shop I just wrote about, and 10 of them are places like the government. 

Most of their business is conducted online through people ordering on their website. But, along with their coffee roasting shop that is open on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays from 9:30am to 1pm, they have a pop-up shop they operate once a month where people can visit and shop from 9:30am to 3pm. 

I visited this shop with my Tailor Day Services worker, where I actually met Alex and saw the coffee shop personally and how the roastery operates. I love their slogan and their name, which is based off of the book of the Bible, Genesis, and since I have been involved partly in the creation ministry, I think any business that use names and themes from the Bible is really cool and I like their slogan, which takes the themes of the book of Genesis and how the day starts with a cup of coffee in the morning, with the slogan In the Beginning There Was Coffee and It Was Good. I really enjoyed visiting this shop and if you have the opportunity to visit this shop, please let me know how you enjoyed it. And please support them or consider them when you are out in the community looking for coffee beans for your drink. 

Here's their website for more information: https://gencoffeeroasters.com/

God saw all that he had made, and it was very good. And there was evening, and there was morning—the sixth day.                                                         Genesis 1:31

Thank You for reading my post!!

Getting coffee at the train depot

There’s a new coffee shop that has just opened at the Shingle Springs Depot. It is called Wisegal Coffee and it is run by two ladies, Rachel Bezdek and Brylee Lance. Their motto is bad jokes and good coffee, which is what these girls both enjoy and is partly why they started operating this coffee shop. I recently visited with my family, my dad had a mocha with oatmilk, and mom and I got a gingerbread vanilla latte with oatmilk. And they were really delicious!! The reason why this coffee shop is special to me is that I have known Rachel and her family from a church that I have attended and my grandparents attend. I think it is cool that Rachel is running her own coffee shop with a friend in a really cool location, in the depot of the El Dorado Railroad. They are located at 4241 Mother Lode Drive in Shingle Springs, CA. They are open Mondays and Wednesdays to Fridays from 6am to 1pm and Saturdays and Sundays from 7am to 2pm. They are closed on Tuesdays. They have a website with more information about the business: https://wisegalcoffee.com/

I hope you enjoyed reading my blogpost and God bless!!
