This is critical value add. I looked for an “about” section or a blog to describe the selection process. I realize “About Us” or “blog” pages are too often drafted mostly for SEO, but I use them a lot to make buying decisions. I’m not in a position to visit coffee farms - lucky you! - but for $16+ a pound I’m buying the story and the selection and roasting process, not just the (really nicely executed) nerd dad jokes. That said, I’ve still bookmarked this for holiday stocking stuffers for my programming friends…

Great point, I overlook(ed) an about section because I am in the same boat in thinking it's mostly just SEO, but it's a good data point that people actually do look at it, especially when choosing to buy.

Edit: Thanks to your recommendation, I added a preliminary about-us page. https://hackerbrews.com/pages/about-us
