Devorah Freudiger is director of coffee culture at Equator Coffees, the longstanding B Corp coffee brand with various locations around the Bay Area. But the Bay Area was where it really started in earnest, with jobs of all types in the coffee biz since the early 2000s. More than 20 years later, I’m still in the Bay Area and still making coffee. I have a Breville automatic brewer for my first cup, as it’s nearly impossible to make coffee before drinking coffee. Equator Coffees, equatorcoffees.com.
