Ep. 12: Christopher Hall & Emma Mansanti

Chris & Emma are co-owners of Push x Pull Coffee Roasters- one of the most exciting and standout coffee companies in the Pacific Northwest. Established in 2018, Push x Pull has cemented itself in Portland’s specialty coffee scene as a roaster known for consistently offering some of the most unique coffees grown by incredibly innovative producers all over the world, and their café on Stark Ave was recently awarded a spot among the World’s 100 Best Coffee Shops because of their relentless pursuit of quality and dedication to extraordinary hospitality.

This conversation was a special look behind the scenes of Chris & Emma’s dynamic as a team, how they approach what they do at Push x Pull, and what they look forward to in the ever-changing coffee landscape. We talk about the dynamics of running a business together between two people, we debate the value of “co-fermentation” in today’s coffee landscape, and discuss the importance of flavor over social experience…and so much more.

Recorded in at Push x Pull on Market St, in Portland, Oregon.
