Our Philosophy

Where Parisian romance meets lakeside morning rituals.

We started LoadTest Cold Brew 8 with a simple belief: coffee shouldn't just wake you up; it should make you pause. Tucked away in Prior Lake, we combine the slow, meticulous art of French cafe culture with the bold character of locally roasted beans.

Our signature cold brew is steeped for exactly eighteen hours, yielding a velvet-smooth profile completely free of bitterness. We pair each cup with pastries laminated by hand and baked fresh at dawn.
