We love music here at Element Coffee and if you weren’t there last friday you missed out on Consumable Products, we’ll have a recap and video from that event soon.

This Friday Sound the Sky is going to be performing at 7p. Here’s a little note from the band.  Be sure to check them out.

We’re a band based out of Camarillo called Sound the Sky, the show is from 7p-10p with band members Hannah Craver, Tony Ferrari, STS and Ryan Metier, Ryan used to be in a band called Countless Hours. We’ve been together 2 years this coming winter.

You can download any of our songs for free via www.facebook.com/soundthesky

It’s just meant to be a chill night with some talented local acts at a great coffee place I endorse and admire before the holidays really pick up

-Cassie Purtlebaugh

A huge thanks to everyone who came out for our latenight that ran from after turkey dinner all through the night as people were out braving the cold and the black friday lines.

We had a great group of people come by the store and grab some coffee late into the night.

There were robust board games, and robust laughs into the wee hours.

We’re thinking about doing some more “latenight” events.  Let us know if there’s any special reason we should do one.  Finals?  Or got a big group that just wants coffee late at night?  We can make special arrangements.

Here are a few photos from the event.  Enjoy!

We just wanted to let you all know that we WILL be open on THANKSGIVING DAY.

We will open at our regular time 6am, we will remain open until 1pm.

THEN we will RE-open at 10pm and stay open the ENTIRE NIGHT.

Please feel free to come down, and hang out.  Bring games, books, family and friends.

If you are going to be out shopping for Black Friday please stop by before or after your shopping and say hi.

Do us a favor and spread the word about our special hours.  Tell your family, your friends, even other people in line at the store you are waiting at.

We can’t wait to see you.  Let us know what amazing deals you are going to grab up.

We are going to try and be good little bloggers over here at Element.  We think we can, we think we can.

Look for more posts not only about what’s going on at Element, but also posts from our baristas and other special guests in the future.  If there’s anything specifically you want to read about, don’t be shy leave us a comment and let us know what that is.

On Saturday November 13th, we had Marcel Ayers from FreshCoffeeBeans.com stop by to give a home coffee roasting demonstration and answer questions about the art of roasting coffee beans.

He gave two demos and even passed out samples of the freshly roasted beans which Mike was so kind enough to brew up fresh out of the roaster.

If you want to learn more about coffee roasting at home visit FreshCoffeeBeans.com.

Check out this little video from the event.

Here’s some photos from the event as well.
