Most companies don't support like that. They're 100% about it though, so it's worth the price every time.

Dude your my new favorite stranger. If you wanna sort out the bike shit there are some very questionable resources right here on reddit.

There is basically no room to under sell current coffee shops. Indie spots barely turn profit and the big names successfully sell low tier product for premium prices. If a good latte is 4 bucks and you charge 2 you need to sell twice as many to cover rent. I worked at a place that switched the espresso beans to a cheaper mass produced product to up the margin. People stopped coming immediately, the quality was important.
