COFFEE

 
q: What is BrewSouth?

BrewSouth is a direct-to-consumer distributor that ships fresh on-demand roasted coffee from select hand-picked small-batch roasters located in the southern United States. We are so proud of the work and products produced by these amazing roasters, that we knew coffee lovers needed to experience these incredible roasts for themselves.

 
q: How fresh is the coffee I order?

Your coffee is roasted specifically for you by the small-batch roaster listed on the coffee when you place your order. Once your order has been received and listed as 'processing', the roaster begins the roasting process. Your coffee is freshly roasted, degassed, bagged and shipped directly to you from BrewSouth within 48-72 hours of ordering.

 
q: Do I need a special kind of coffee maker or machine?

You can use absolutely any kind of coffee maker, brewer, or machine to make your coffee. Whether your favorite is a french press, pour over, espresso machine or that old relic of a coffee maker you keep in the garage, it's totally up to you. It's really the size of the cup that matters! (kidding).

 
q: How should I store my coffee & how long will it stay fresh?

For optimal freshness we suggest storing your coffee purchased from BrewSouth in an airtight container or in the original coffee bag which is designed with a one-way degassing valve. Stored correctly, you can extend coffee beans shelf life for up to six months.

 

Gifts

 
q: Can I send coffee as a gift?

Absolutely. Simply add the coffee you wish to send as a gift to your cart and when finished adding coffee proceed to the VIEW CART page. Before 'Proceeding to Checkout' scroll down. You will then be presented with a GIFT OPTIONS button which will then display the option to enter your name, the gift recipient's name as well as a personal message which appears on the packing slip (prices and payment information never appear on the packing slip). Once your order ships, you'll receive an email with a tracking number to monitor delivery of your gift.

 

SHIPPING & DELIVERY

 
q: How much does BrewSouth charge for U.S. delivery?

Shipping is fast, simple and inexpensive from the USPS with 4-7 Day One-Rate delivery at $1.95 per bag of coffee, 48 K-Cup Pack or Brew Bundle. We also offer USPS Priority Mail at the actual retail rate which is based on the weight and distance to your zip code. All shipments sent from BrewSouth always include a tracking number and are fully insured.

 
q: When will I receive my shipment once I place my order?

Your coffee is roasted specifically for you when you've place your order. Once the roaster has completed the roast, degassed, packed and sealed your bag, your coffee arrives at the BrewSouth shipping facility for shipping to you. Typically from the time you place order to the time your order has shipped is about 48-72 hours. To ensure quick delivery, we ship 6 days a week and email tracking numbers the same day, as soon as they become available. Delivery is 4-7 days for most of the U.S. and only automated digital labeling is used to speed your package through the USPS system.

 
q: Do you ship in a fancy decorative box with lots of tissue paper?

Sure we could, but we decided it was more important to save our customer's money by keeping prices low and use professional industrial-strength USPS approved materials to ensure your coffee arrives to you fast and in absolute perfect condition.

 
q: How can I track my order?

Every shipment includes a tracking number which is trackable online from pickup to delivery. You'll receive your tracking number in an email as soon as your order ships. You can also retrieve your tracking number online on BrewSouth even if you checked out as a guest. Our Track My Order page will get you the information you need.

 

PAYMENTS

 
q: What payment methods do you accept?

BrewSouth accepts credit and debit Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover Card, and Paypal for all orders.
