This week\\u2019s episode is a sit-down conversation with Emily & Chris Pacileo of Great Minds Coffee Roasters who are currently located in the old Pin Shop building in Oakville.

\\n

If anyone knows me they know I love coffee - so I was super excited when I discovered that there was a local roaster in the Watertown / Oakville area.

\\n

They opened up Great Minds Coffee Roasters in November of 2019 and they had about 4 months of normal business before getting hit with the covid curveball.

\\n

Chris was first exposed to roasting back in college and had worked his way up to head roaster at Capitol City Roasters throughout his college years.

\\n

Emily\\u2019s family had owned small businesses and moving back to CT inspired them to explore potential options for businesses and side projects they could do.

\\n

They have an amazing story and I fully vouch for the quality of their coffee after enjoying the Guatemala mix this past week.
