Coffee Magazine - Issue 31, Autumn 2020

In this issue

We wanted to capture what people are feeling at this time. Alone. Distanced. Going through their coffee rituals in a new or different way to usual. Some say red symbolizes danger or anger. Both abound during this pandemic. Red also symbolizes love and that’s what we’re choosing to focus on. We love coffee, we love our community and we love you, the people who make it, and this magazine, worth it. Issue 31 is packed full of inspiration and escapism and incredible humans.
