El Botón - Caffè per macchina da caffè completamente automatica

About This Coffee

El Botón is a blend combining 70% Arabica from Mexico and 30% Robusta from Guinea, specifically developed for fully automatic coffee machines. The Arabica component comes from Sierra Mixteca, Oaxaca, Mexico, produced by small producers in San Maria Yucuhiti and is organic. It includes Bourbon, Mundo Novo, and Typica varieties and is washed processed. The Robusta comes from the Macenta region in Guinea, produced by associated Macenta bean producers, and is honey processed. The blend offers caramel and hazelnut notes with a soft character, featuring light floral notes and caramelized finish from the Mexican coffee, while the Guinean Robusta provides a strong base character and emphasized finish.

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.
