On A Positive Note: Behind the Scenes at W.B. Law Coffee

Over in New Jersey. It was a beautiful day for a cup of Joe. Come with me as we take in the intoxicating aromas of different beans at and blends at WB Lock coffee. Our crews got to catch up with the family behind the local gem. So the company started back in a barn behind the house in Dunellen. My father in law and his brothers uh worked for for their dad. My father in law's brothers uh were killed during world war two. So when my father in law came back, he was the sole remaining son and Warren law joined his father taking the coffee company from a barn to the bustling streets of Newark. We can find our coffee at a variety of different types of convenience stores and we have a number of restaurants, cafes, banquet halls throughout the area. Mm Like a really nice Costa Rican coffee or even something very acidic like a Kenyan Aa coffee or like coffee chefs. If we're sitting there, we're able to make different types of blends and roast profiles. Ceo David Mendez spilled the beans on how they mix grind and package their java. Mm It smells so good in here. So we'll take all these bags of coffee and then we'll dump them into the entire production line starting right here. And then from here it goes to our different mixers and hoppers. Then it's over to the grinder. Never press the red button up to the elevator down the tube to the hopper into the auger which is then getting dumped into the bags that this coffee machine is making, making a couple of £1000 of coffee every hour. Coffee employee Eddie Mills has been blending since 1967. Most of all my life and I watched the place grow, the owners, you know, they're more like family and it's family that keeps this business going built on caffeine and steeped in love. It's absolutely special. You know, I honestly couldn't imagine this place without him. Um I'm just happy that, uh, you know, it's still in the family.
