About This Coffee

This washed Catuaí coffee is from San Jerónimo, Baja Verapaz, Guatemala, produced by Yulma Argueta. It is roasted for all common filter methods including hand filter, AeroPress, French Press, and cold brew. The coffee features a harmonious, balanced, and round profile with flavor notes of honey waffles, caramel, and chocolate. It scores approximately 84 points and is roasted in 15 kg batches for 9 minutes and 30 seconds with a development time of 1 minute and 15 seconds on a Giesen 30 kg roaster. The roast is slightly darker than other filter coffees to enhance caramelized notes and sweetness absorption.

Kaffeemacher

Kaffeemacher was founded in Basel in 2009 by Benjamin Hohlmann, growing out of his work managing Unternehmen Mitte, one of Switzerland's largest coffee houses. The operation began roasting commercially in 2017 after years of developing a clear roasting philosophy, and today encompasses a roastery in the Gundeli district, a Coffee Academy with over 8,000 course participants, award winning cafes, and a mobile coffee bar. Benjamin holds SCA trainer certification and lectures on coffee at ZHAW Wädenswil. The team co owns Finca Santa Rita, a coffee farm in northern Nicaragua, and sources from partner farms in ten countries through long term relationships. Kaffeemacher swept four of the top five places at the 2024 Swiss Roasting Championships, with all roasters on the team having learned their craft in house. Transparency runs deep: the company publishes a Common Good Balance Sheet and is a signatory to The Pledge for transparent green coffee buying.
