The Caffeinator Community

A little dump of pop ups from the last month and a half 🥹 it’s been busy and I’ve been so incredibly blessed!

I am taking a break for July with travel and moving but come August we are back in full gear… will fall syrups to come (and I am going to be switching to homes made syrups 👀)

I’d like take a minute to talk about my biggest event since starting this business one year ago. 🥹

In May, I got to be a part of a 20+ year 5K fundraising event with NOCO Humane. It started with a simple cold outreach to the NOCO Humane team and ended with them trusting in me to be a part of their special day.

A few hiccups happened. One being the worst thing to forget…. A pitcher to steam milk and having to use camp cups instead 🥲 and my machine overheating and struggling to pull shots halfway through…

But with the help of my two favorite people (my mom and my husband), we were able to push through those hiccups and seamlessly run a massive coffee pop up.

Some of my favorite parts?

☕️The pups… duh
☕️Hearing people share their stories, their connections to animals, their passions
☕️Hearing how everyone did in the race!
☕️Meeting the volunteers and staff of NOCO Humane
☕️Getting to share my story, and my reason for doing this
☕️ Realizing my dream came true

A little idea in May 2025, has turned into something amazing and I truly believe it will be something even bigger next year ☕️🐶

Running a coffee cart meant for the dogs is a dream 🥹 this was my little assistant at my recent event 🤍 but….

Who was going to tell me running a coffee cart business is ALOT of work???

I can’t believe this all began with a love for coffee, a love for coffee farmers and a love for shelter dogs and my very own shelter pup 🤍

It’s inspection day and I am so nervous! This has all been so much harder, time consuming and more expensive than I ever thought it would be. But I am so close, and so proud of how far I’ve come. It’s been an amazing journey so far. I can’t wait to make a difference in the shelter and coffee world and I can’t wait for everyone to experience the beginning of The Caffeinator Community.

Wish me luck at inspection today!
