Our Story
Bringing the charm of Parisian mornings to Prior Lake
We started LoadTest Cold Brew 0 with a simple mission: to slow down. Inspired by the quiet, sun-drenched hours of Parisian boutique cafés, we wanted to create a space in Minnesota where coffee isn't rushed, but celebrated.
Every batch of our signature cold brew is steeped for 18 hours to extract the smoothest, richest flavor profile possible. We partner with local Midwest roasters who share our obsession with origin, roast profiles, and fair trade practices.

What our community says
"The 18-hour cold brew is incredibly smooth. I pick up a cup and a butter croissant every Saturday morning, and it honestly feels like a little slice of Paris right here in Minnesota."
"As someone who is pretty obsessive about espresso extraction, their double shot is consistently perfect. You can tell they care deeply about brew ratios and water temperature."
"The sweet cream cold brew is out of this world. The café itself is stunning—warm, welcoming, and perfect for catching up with friends or reading a book."
