Indy Loves Coffee began in 2015 as a blog celebrating Indianapolis’s growing coffee culture. What started as a casual exploration of local cafés quickly became a deeper passion for coffee, prompting the founders to dive into home brewing.
Their dedication paid off in 2017 when they won first place in Indianapolis’s inaugural Brewer’s Cup, hosted by Tinker Coffee.
In 2023, Indy Loves Coffee officially became a home-based micro roastery.
The business now focuses on roasting and selling high-quality coffee beans to Indiana residents. Each roast is crafted with care and attention to detail, highlighting the unique flavor profiles of beans sourced from around the world. Indy Loves Coffee also places a strong emphasis on sharing the stories of the farmers and producers behind each batch, aiming to connect customers with the origins of their brew.
Their online shop features a rotating selection of whole bean coffees, which are roasted in small batches to ensure freshness and consistency. From bright and fruity single origins to rich, balanced blends, the offerings are curated to satisfy a variety of coffee lovers. The team also shares brewing tips and methods to help customers get the best cup from each roast.
While they currently sell directly to consumers in Indiana, Indy Loves Coffee plans to expand into wholesale. The long-term goal is to see their beans available in local coffee shops and grocery stores across the city.
Coffee enthusiasts can stay connected by signing up for the Indy Loves Coffee newsletter or following the brand on Instagram and Facebook for product updates and behind-the-scenes content.
