VERY DARK ROAST·TRIBUTE

Goat Locker (12 oz)

Bold·Slightly Smoky·Toffee-like
VERY DARK ROAST
Steeped in Naval Tradition, the "Goat Locker" as it's affectionately named, is a term for the Chief’s Mess. Established April 1, 1893, in the days of wooden sailing ships, it is a place of reverence meant only for those selected few, that achieve the title of Chief.

All sailors acknowledge and many fear the term but only a few know how The Goat Locker came to be. By tradition, all sailors and officers (including the Commanding Officer) are required to request permission before entering The Goat Locker. The tradition stands with rare exception even today.

Wise and gritty Chiefs, the keepers of knowledge, run the Navy with an iron fist, because young American lives are on the line.

For this, we raise a toast to you, "Old Goat.” Your well earned and feared reputation still sends chills down the spines of junior officers and Sailors alike.

The darkest roast we offer, we chose our Costa Rican bean for this coffee. Why the Costa Rican? It keeps its unmistakable character and quality, even when roasted extra dark, giving this coffee a slightly smoky, toffee-like flavor. Ours is a Strictly Hard Bean European Preparation (SHB-EP), and its hardness and volcanic origins are complemented by the French roast.

BREW MATH

How Much Coffee Do You Need?

Two scoops per cup. That is the BoneFrog standard. Here is what that means for your household.

1 Scoop 1 tablespoon, approx. 6 to 10g
2 Scoops 2 tablespoons per cup
12 oz bag approx. 22 cups
How long does a bag last at 3 cups per person per day
Drinkers 12 oz 2 lb 5 lb Best choice
1 person 7 days 3 weeks 7 weeks 12 oz, weekly
2 people 3 to 4 days 10 days 3.5 weeks 2 lb, every 2 weeks
3 people 2 to 3 days 7 days 2.5 weeks 5 lb, every 3 weeks
4 or more 2 days 4 to 5 days 12 days 5 lb, every 2 weeks
Example: 1 person, 3 cups a day

A 12 oz bag lasts about one week. Subscribe to 1 bag every week, or 2 bags every 2 weeks to keep a buffer on hand.

Step up to the 2 lb for fewer deliveries. One 2 lb bag carries a single drinker through about 3 weeks.

Two people at 3 cups each: go to the 2 lb on a 2-week subscription. One person, fewer deliveries: 5 lb, every 6 weeks.

Not sure how often to subscribe?

A 12 oz bag lasts about one week for one person at 3 cups a day. Two people go through it in 3 to 4 days.

Match your household to the table above, then subscribe at that interval. When in doubt, go up a size. Running low is the one problem coffee should never give you.
