Do you know how much coffee you drink?
Two cups a day is about a 250g bag a week, or a kilogram a month. Most of us never add it up. Bean Awesome is 1kg from a different Cape Town roastery each month, roasted fresh and left at your door.

R134.95
Everyday supermarket coffee, checked August 2026. Prices move around. No links out — these are local shots and figures only.
Would you spend a similar amount — or less — to get it delivered, roasted fresh, from a different roastery every month?
If you buy a 250g bag every week, you already spend about R480. If you already buy a kilo, you already spend about R390 — the same money, with a fresh roast, a different Cape Town roastery, and delivery to the door.
Monthly is cancel anytime. Six and twelve months are prepaid for the term. These are working figures until each roastery quotes.
How it works
One decision from you, then a bag of good coffee turns up every month.
One kilogram. Pick a roast.
Deliberately simple to start with: one kilogram, one price, one decision. More sizes and grinds can follow once the roasteries are on board.

Who you will be drinking
Five small roasteries within half an hour of each other, each doing something quietly different. The range grows as more of them come on board.
Roastery A
False Bay
Small-batch specialty roasted for people who brew at home. Beans chosen for a clean cup, roasted in Cape Town and packed the same week they leave the drum.
Roastery B
Atlantic seaboard
A neighbourhood roastery on the Atlantic seaboard. Short roast profiles and a house coffee meant to be drunk every morning, not saved for guests.
Roastery C
Southern peninsula
Southern peninsula roasting in small lots. Filter-friendly and espresso-friendly coffees rotate through the month, always roasted to order rather than sitting on a shelf.
Roastery D
Cape Town
Cape Town specialty with a short list and a long roast log. One kilogram, bagged for the door, with a card that tells you what to expect from the cup.
Roastery E
False Bay
A small local roastery in the rotation. Fresh roast, Cape Town, left at the door — the same promise as the rest of the line-up.
Questions worth asking
Cape Town to start with — False Bay, the Atlantic seaboard, and the southern peninsula. Short hops from roaster to kitchen.
Tell us and we will make it right on the next delivery. The whole point is to find roasters you would not have picked yourself, which only works if the occasional miss costs you nothing.
Whole bean by default, because it keeps far better. Tell us what you brew with and the roastery will grind to match before it is bagged.
Fifteen grams is a household average. Filter is often a little less; an espresso double is often a little more. Two cups a day at that rate is about 210g a week, or about a kilogram in a 30-day month.
It is the same coffee with more packaging trips. Four everyday 250g bags at about R120 is roughly R480 a month. A supermarket kilo sits around R390. Bean Awesome is priced with that kilo.
A month is a bit over four weeks, so the weekly figure is what it feels like to spend, not four times the bill. You are billed R390 once a month.
On the monthly plan, on the same date each month, starting the day you sign up. Six- and twelve-month plans are prepaid once for the term.
The monthly plan, any time, without a phone call or a retention conversation. Pause it for a month if you are away, or stop altogether and nothing further is charged. Six- and twelve-month plans are prepaid for the term.
You absolutely should, and we would rather you did than not drink their coffee at all.
This exists for the months when you do not get around to it, and for the roasteries you have never heard of. One kilogram turns up, it is different every time, and it is roasted days before it reaches you.
