Coffee Tasting Log
As an enthusiast of light roasted specialty coffees, i thought this cafe/roaster was good but not great. Their coffees had great descriptions on paper, but when I tasted them, they were brewed to be more heavy in body and sweetness (and resulting slight bitterness) for my taste. It’s just a matter of preference. Many people like this style of coffee. They use a flat bottom brewer for their pour-over which tends to emphasize sweetness in the coffee. The staff were very nice and the pastry I had was delicious. The cafe is in the back part of an old-factory type building. The decor was minimalistic and hip/modern but had now windows which made the atmosphere feel a little dark. The high ceilings help though.

In my opinion the best coffee roaster in San Jose. Their roasting program is top notch with a wide variety of origins and processes - something for everyone. They make good espresso drinks too. Located inside of the same building as Hapa’s brewing. Use the entrance near the corner of Lincoln and Auzerais, follow the signs and go straight in and make a right. Chromatic is the first unit on your left behind a big barn-style door

I really dig the vibe of Chromatic. It's in a big industrial warehouse-type space, and has a lot of space for seating and just enjoying your coffee and food. The space also has some cool merch, nice music, and various coffee table books on offer for you to read while you relax. The staff were quite friendly, and the coffee and food was delicious. Can't really say I have any complaints. Cool coffee shop with a unique vibe. Definitely recommend checking it out if you're in the San Jose area!

Chromatic coffee for the lack of a better word is hip Cafe done right. Of the many Coffee shops that aspire to be in this category, majority of them get everything right, but the coffee. This is not the case of chromatic. As I walked in, the barista took time to explain the various kind of coffee is that they had and allowed me to ask questions. I went with a medium roast, and the coffee was truly phenomenal. Far cry from anything you get at any of the chains. I originally wanted to just get a cold brew which I have to be honest is a little expensive for just being a cold brew but then I decided to take some coffee beans as well, and they told me the cold brew is complimentary if you buy coffee beans. Win win. The cafe itself is located within warehouse of sorts and is extremely industrial looking. The space itself is huge inter spread with couple of metallic desk and chair. They had some food items as well, but I did not try any. You can buy coffee beans, T-shirts, and even colouring books. They are not cheap though. Even if you just come here for the coffee, you’ll have a good time.
