About us

HUDES is a media platform dedicated to manual brewing, not just as a brewing method, but as an art, an exploration, and an experience that brings us closer to the true essence of coffee.

Through in-depth content, exclusive interviews, and explorations of innovation in the specialty coffee world, HUDES strives to educate, inspire, and connect the manual brewing community. We believe that every manually brewed cup holds a story, and HUDES is here to tell it.
