SERVING BREVARD COLLEGE SINCE 1935
New coffee beans coming
soon to Bill's Boiler House
By BC Communications
Brevard College’s Bill’s Boiler House will become a Brevard College
operated coffee shop. Previously occupied by Appalachian Coffee
Company, the coffee house will now serve coffee brewed by alum Jotham
Lipsi ’05, owner of Pisgah Coffee Roasters.
Brevard College students, faculty and staff will be able to use their
meal plans and Tornado bucks at the coffee shop. Coffee drinks, breakfast
pastries, lunch options, and after hour snacks will be available to anyone
who comes into the coffee shop.
“We are very thankful to Appalachian Coffee for running Bill's for the
past few years,” Dean of Students Deb D’Anna said. “Brevard College
is now in a position to run Bill's through our food service program. Bill's
Boiler House will be a great addition to our student meal plan. Students
will be able to use meal exchange and flex dollars at the coffee shop. Our
hope is for Bill's Boiler House to become a gathering spot for our campus
community and our Brevard Community.”
As always, the greater community will be welcomed at the coffee shop
during regular business hours.
Brevard College brought Lipsi to western North Carolina in 2004. Like
most visitors, he fell in love with the area. In 2010, Lipsi and his father
established a coffee business supplying single-origin coffee from the
Cerrado region of Brazil to commercial clients. Lipsi, listening to customer
requests, began to source high quality beans from around the world to
provide a variety of coffees roasted here in Pisgah Forest.
“Pisgah Coffee Roasters is truly grateful to be partnering with Brevard
College, where the idea of starting a coffee roasting company began
during my college years,” Lipsi said. “Our gratitude to the college and
the community continues to grow as we deepen our connection to the
people and businesses of Transylvania county.,
“We are a family owned and operated roasting facility and we strive
to bring our best to our customers both near and far. We welcome you to
come tour our facility and meet the crew and with the utmost sincerity,
we thank you for your partnership.”
Having graduates choose to live, work, play, and serve in the immediate
area is a great display of the impact of a Brevard College education.
Brevard College is passionate about working with alumni and is thrilled
to enter this endeavor with a business owner that truly understands the
mission of the college.
Bill's Boiler House will be closed from Dec. 15 through Jan. 7 during
this transitional period. A grand opening is scheduled for Jan. 7, 2019.
Pisgah Coffee Roasters will be on Campus at Myers Dining Hall during
lunch on Wednesday, Dec. 5, 11:30 a.m. - 1 p.m. They will be bringing
some sample coffee and setup the table in the lobby of Myers Dining Hall.
There will also be music and a drawing for a nice Coffee Product Basket.
Bill’s Boiler House is a staple on BC’s campus, and will soon be serving coffee
from Pisgah Coffee Roasters coffee company.

The Satanic Temple filed a lawsuit on Nov. 8 against Netflix and Warner
Bros, over a statue in the new show “The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina.”
The lawsuit was settled on Nov. 22.
The Satanic Temple filed the suit against the two entertainment
companies in a New York district court. They sued for $150 million
for using a statue of Baphomet, “an androgynous goat-headed deity”
surrounded by children, which the temple leaders claim is “copyrighted.”
Baphomet was associated with the 12th-century Catholic military order
the Knights Templar and has since been worshipped by occultists.
According to the court documents the Temple filed, the companies
infringed on its copyrights, violated its trademark and caused injury to
its business reputation.
The Baphomet statue was made famous by an Indiegogo campaign
in 2014 which called for the statue to be installed next to the Ten
Commandments at the Oklahoma State Capitol, it resides in Detroit
