About Smell The Coffee

Smell The Coffee is an editorial coffee publication created for people who want to brew better coffee at home — whether you are just starting your first French press or refining your espresso workflow.

Coffee can feel complicated when you begin. Equipment choices are overwhelming, advice online often conflicts, and marketing claims rarely tell the full story. Our goal is simple: to make good coffee approachable through clear explanations, honest research, and practical recommendations.

We focus on:

  • Beginner-friendly brewing guides.

  • Thoughtful equipment reviews.

  • Side-by-side comparisons that help readers make confident decisions.

  • Coffee knowledge explained without jargon.

Every guide and review is written with everyday home baristas in mind — people balancing curiosity, budget, and real kitchen space.

Our Approach

We believe coffee should be enjoyable rather than intimidating. Our recommendations are based on research, user experience, and practical usability rather than hype or trends.

Whenever products are recommended, the aim is to help readers understand why something works and who it is best suited for.

Transparency

Smell The Coffee participates in affiliate programs. This means we may earn a small commission when readers purchase products through certain links, at no additional cost to them. These commissions help support the time and research required to maintain the website.

Editorial independence remains important to us, and opinions expressed reflect honest assessments.
