Updated: October 7th, 2024

Thinking of combining your passion for coffee and publishing? Starting a coffee magazine could be your perfect brew. In simple terms, a coffee magazine is a specialized publication that explores the rich world of coffeeโ€”from bean to cupโ€”covering topics like brewing techniques, coffee culture, and industry trends.

You'll begin by conducting in-depth research, connecting with coffee experts, and interviewing baristas to create high-quality content that captivates readers. Expect to engage in photography sessions, attend coffee events, and network with advertisers to fund your venture.

To attract and retain subscribers, consider offering both print and digital versions, along with exclusive perks like early access to events or limited-edition coffee samples. If you have a knack for storytelling and a deep love for coffee, this business idea could make you a key influencer in the coffee community.

In this list, you'll find real-world coffee magazine success stories and very profitable examples of starting a coffee magazine that makes money.
