Navigating a coffee shop menu can be overwhelming. Sometimes we feel ashamed to ask questions or look foolish when we step up to the register. Other times, out of panic, we order the same thing we always do because we’re not sure what the other drinks are. We get it. Between cortados, matchas, and macchiatos, sometimes it feels like you need a translator.

At Common Good Co. we want you to feel comfortable exploring new drinks and navigating our menu. So, we’re creating a little series of posts to demystify the coffee shop menu for you.

Let’s start simple - “What’s the difference between iced coffee and cold brew?”

The quick answer: While both are iced coffee drinks on our menu, the brewing method is different.

Cold brew is made by steeping coarsely ground coffee in cold water. In our case, this happens over an 18-24-hour period. This slow extraction process creates a coffee concentrate with a smooth, less acidic flavor, perfect for those who prefer mellow drinks.

Iced coffee is brewed hot, then chilled, and served over ice. The hot water quickly extracts flavors, retaining acidity and brightness, offering a bold and robust experience. In our case, we brew both light and dark roast iced coffees for you to enjoy.

While they often get confused for each other, they have two totally different taste profiles. Now that you know, taste the difference for yourself next time you’re in the shop!

Quality coffee should invite us to slow down. Patio season is a great time to pause and linger for a bit.

Our pour-over menu always has single-origin coffees that provide a unique taste of the world and offer you a moment to savor the complexity and craftsmanship of quality coffee. Right now, we have three amazing offerings from our friends at . Two to take note of:

La Terraza Pink Bourbon Honey
Origin: Huila, Columbia
Process: Honey
Notes: Peach, Strawberry, Jasmine

Peru Piura
Origin: Rosarios Banjos
Process: Washed
Notes: Red Apple, Honey, and Cashew

Ask our baristas about a pour over the next time you stop by the shop.

This Thursday! This month is BYOM - Bring Your Own Mug!

We’ve started a Silent Book Club Chapter in the coffee shop after hours on the last Thursday of each month from 6:30-8:30 PM. What is it and how does it work?

📚Everyone brings whatever they’re in the mood to read!
📚We order cozy drinks and chat for a bit before we enjoy some uninterrupted reading time!
📚After an hour, everyone is welcome to participate in a book swap, which is a great way to get books off your shelf while also picking up your next great read!

Join us for the next one and meet some new people! Mark your calendar for May 28th!
