You don’t have to overhaul your whole life to make your coffee routine more eco-friendly. A few thoughtful tweaks can make a big difference without giving up the daily brew you love.
Choose beans that care
Look for roasters like Essenza that focus on quality sourcing, low-waste production and responsible packaging. Our blends are roasted in small batches with an eye on both flavour and footprint. Plus, they’re packed in recyclable bags with freshness valves, so your beans stay top notch without extra waste.
Use a reusable cup
It sounds simple, but switching to a reusable cup cuts back on landfill and still keeps your coffee hot. Keep one in the car, your bag, or at your desk. That takeaway cup you didn’t need? It adds up.
Brew at home more often
Making your own coffee can reduce packaging and cut down on unnecessary trips. Get a setup you enjoy—like a plunger, filter, or espresso machine—and explore different Essenza blends to find your favourite.
Compost your coffee grounds
Used grounds are great for your garden. Sprinkle them on your compost pile or mix them into soil to boost nitrogen and improve texture. You’ll be keeping waste out of the bin and feeding your plants at the same time.
Pick quality over quantity
When you buy better beans and make every cup count, you waste less and enjoy more. Essenza’s carefully crafted blends mean you need fewer extras to make it taste good.
Your daily coffee habit can still be something you feel good about. Small swaps lead to better habits—and better coffee.
