+You can pass options to the Faraday connection block in the `connection` block:

+```ruby
+api = Hyperclient.new('https://grape-with-roar.herokuapp.com/api') do |client|
+  client.connection(ssl: { verify: false }) do |conn|

 You can build a new Faraday connection block without inheriting default middleware by specifying `default: false` in the `connection` block.
