Potter Coffee Club

I'm married to a man who loves hobbies.  In the past almost seven years that I have known him, he has taken an interest in geodes, bamboo fly rod building, and woodworking to name a few.  His latest craze is roasting coffee beans.  Gregg is an avid coffee drinker.  At one point, his three greatest loves were his truck, his coffee pot and me, and I'm not sure how the coffee pot and I lined up for spots.  This guy drinks a lot of coffee.  

Gregg is also an analytical type.  Not only does he want to roast the coffee beans, but he wants to know everything there is to know about roasting coffee beans.  So, to start out 2013, he read some books, gathered his supplies, ordered some green beans (of the coffee variety) and set up shop.  He now has a small roasting operation out of our kitchen and garage.  We are avid followers of Dave Ramsey, and are always looking for ways to save.  This process saves about one dollar on the lb. of luxury store bought coffees.  And sure, it takes some time, and there's more coffee paraphernalia around the house than I would prefer, but hey, it's his thing.    

Every small coffee roasting outfit needs a logo, am I right?  That's where I come in.  I put together this little guy for my guy.  If you enjoy coffee, and the Potters, then you might just get a special invite to our club - and some premium roast.
