Exactly as predicted, it took four months to collect another thousand reviews and hit that beautiful milestone: 5,000 reviews.
We did it. And I’m incredibly proud of this result and of the team behind it. In this post, I want to unpack what happened over these four months and what I’ve learned from this next chapter in our “reviews story.”

Let’s start with a bit of theory and math.

We listen to our guests. For real. And the latest proof of that is a full reset of how we do “brewed coffee” at Fenster.

In reality, it’s not nearly as easy as it sounds—and that’s what this story is about.

Yep, it finally happened. Starting today, you can order Fenster coffee with delivery anywhere in the United States. This became real after I organized and shipped our first batch: almost 150 kilos of coffee in total (about 330 lbs). We’ve got whole beans, drip bags, and coffee sticks ready to go.

Season Two of this text-based series, true to form, took a pause—exactly seven months long—and now it is back on air. In the meantime, here is a quick review of what happened during those seven months since I last reported on the start of the crisis, after which everything seemed to disappear from your screens. It felt almost like a final SOS. But fortunately—it was not.
