three keys, houston

1 week ago | lamarzoccousa.com | Jesse Raub

Written by Jordan Michelman. I’m not sure there’s a roaster-retailer that’s come further faster in the last half-decade than Three Keys Coffee of Houston, Texas. A love letter to music—and specifically jazz—in the guise of a specialty coffee company, Three Keys is the work of Tio and Kenzel Fallen, husband and wife owner-operators who launched the brand in 2019.

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. This has to be one of the most singular coffee bars anywhere in America today—and I just had to find out what was happening here in advance of the 2025 SCA Expo in Houston.

Written by Jordan Michelman. Eighteen years in business is an achievement, a feat, an unlikely milestone for *any* brand or company. My website, Sprudge, just celebrated 16 years of publishing, which I assure you is mindboggling; La Marzocco, meanwhile, is a remarkable 98-years-old, with a truly epic centenary on the fast-approaching horizon. However, for Houston, Texas coffee shop Catalina Coffee, founder Max Gonzalez has overseen so much change and growth since opening his doors in 2007.

Aside from standard features like eco-mode scheduling, dose programming, and temperature control, the new app can now connect directly to the Pico Grinder and Swan Grinder, as well as the La Marzocco Connected Scale.
what is a solenoid valve?

The solenoid valve: the little-known part in your espresso machine that makes everything work. Usually, when people describe espresso machines, they break down their features by talking about the number of group heads a machine has or how ergonomic the portafilters are to use. Rarely do they talk about the solenoid valve, a small electric piece with outlet holes that directs and controls the flow of water.
the definitive way to backflush your espresso machine

1 month ago | lamarzoccousa.com | Jesse Raub

Backflushing is a vital step necessary to keep your espresso machine clean, but if you asked any two people how they backflush their machines, you’re likely to get two completely different answers. Although most folks who have picked up a grouphead and pulled shots know the basics of backflushing—you do it to keep the groupheads clean and prevent buildup from coffee oils and debris—many still have questions: how often am I supposed to backflush? When should and shouldn’t I use detergent?

Written by Jordan Michelman. I recently had the pleasure of taking a closer look at Goat Hill Coffee & Soda in Kansas City. This cafe came highly recommended by Chad Little, a La Marzocco USA team member serving the Kansas City and St. Louis communities, and it’s easy to see why.

Chef Renee Erickson is known throughout Seattle for her small restaurant empire, Sea Creatures. Though she might be most well known for The Walrus and the Carpenter, which is right up the street from La Marzocco’s Ballard headquarters, it’s The Whale Wins where coffee takes center stage.
