Little Waves Coffee Roasters was founded in 2017 by Areli Barrera Grodski and Leon Grodski Barrera as an extension of the Cocoa Cinnamon coffee shop they’d successfully run since 2013. As their three cafes have gotten busier and busier over the years, they realized they needed an equipment refresh. After weighing their options, the two decided to install a La Marzocco KB90 espresso machine in each retail location.

The main difference between where I keep my tea wares and where I keep my coffee equipment is one of scale.

In the late 1960s, La Marzocco was looking to innovate. More and more research showed that water temperature significantly affected the flavor quality of espresso, but the predominant design for most espresso manufacturers was a heat exchange system.

Written by Jordan Michelman. Have you ever seen a picture of a coffee shop and felt utterly compelled to learn more? Such was my immediate response to Retrospect Coffee in Houston, Texas, which is located inside of a totally unique and completely unusual looking 1921 Gulf Gas Station building.
