Coffee Collective & Impact Hub
One of our family members in the Coffee Collective needs more space, we facilitate it!
We found an amazing 70m2 office/meeting space at the IJ Waterfront with garden and jetty for boats to 10 meter (!), Nieuwendammerdijk 530E. Just 50 meters of our co-roasting space. Happy Growing Wakuli!
Super stoked to welcome www.Flipsidecoffee.nl in our co-roasting space. We love their catch phrase:
“Rediscover coffee, enjoy more and change the way people know coffee
Catch you on the flipside!”
Their first coffee is a smooth Brasil from the Mogiana region. Check it out!
Since November 2019 Dave’s Koffiebranderij joined the Amsterdam Roasters Coffee Collective. Dave added his beautiful bright orange 5kg Besca coffee roaster to the machine park!
So now we can offer a 2 kg, 5kg, 12kg, 15kg roaster for you to roast your greens !
At Amsterdam Roasters we offer barista basics workshops for you as our (future) coffee bean customers. These workshops are also great for teambuilding with your colleagues!
We will explain what a well made espresso consist of. An introduction in freshly roasted coffee beans and their origin. Understand the variables that determine the extraction time of your espresso drink. For example setting the grinder (‘dialing in’) and tamping the ground coffee correctly. We will convince you of cleaning your tools & equipment vigorously.
When time allows the first steps in steaming the milk will be tought to create a silky micro-foam needed for smooth texture in a cappuccino and eventually latte art.
What will you learn?
Group minimum: 3 persons, group maximum 6 persons
€ 42,50 participation fee
If you want to stay up-to-date with the #DirectTrade coffees of our family member The Coffee Quest, make sure to visit our great coffee collective on Friday mornings 9:30 hours sharp!
The cuppings are facilitated by Amsterdam Coffee Lab, one of our other family members!

PRESS RELEASE
Amsterdam, 15th September 2019
From 1 November 2019, 30ml Coffee Roasters will join Amsterdam Roasters – Coffee Collective.
30ml Coffee Roasters will establish office at Amsterdam Roasters in Amsterdam North and will use the facilities and coffee roasters to roast the specialty coffees for their franchise companies. Frans Kooijman, CEO: “The reason for 30ml to join Amsterdam Roasters is because of the collaboration possibilities, sharing knowledge with the other members and use of the professional (coffee roasting) facilities.”

30ml Coffee Roasters is the only true specialty coffee & food franchise concept with 9 successful franchise locations in Utrecht (4 locations), Rotterdam (2 locations), Amersfoort, Leiden and Hoorn by the end of 2019.

Since April 2019 we have a true Canadian coffee lover under our roof starting up a new and cool coffee brand: Dak Coffee Roasters. Louis-Philippe is a great guy and a valuable addition to our family of coffee co-roasters.
We are happy to say “welcome” to Wakuli, an innovative platform that fits our beliefs to optimize the revenue stream for the specialty coffee farmers. Wakuli is a start-up soon to be scale-up that offers coffee subscriptions to coffee lovers.

Yorick Bruins, co-founder Wakuli: “We want to change the coffee industry by enabling you, the coffee drinker and conscious consumer, to buy your coffee directly from farmers in Tanzania and Ethiopia.”
March 2nd 2019 we have organized our first coffee collective event at Amsterdam Roasters. The participants had a great time while have a true specialty coffee experience.
Arnoud, co-founder of Amsterdam Roasters, welcomed everybody at an early hour (8:00 AM) and explained what Amsterdam Roasters is all about. There was a (healthy) breakfast to lay the foundation for a lot of coffee.
Then the workshops started:
The first part was about green coffee. Explained by Friso of the Coffee Quest – direct trade coffee importers
The second part was about Coffee Cupping (tasting and selecting roasted coffee)
The third part was the exciting part! Roasting your favorite specialty coffee
Coffee roasting is an art. Our participant where explained what it is all about.
The fun part was that everybody took home a bag of self-roasted coffee!
Wouter Brunia, one of the most skilled and passionate SCA trainers in The Netherlands will join the Amsterdam Roasters Coffee Collective. A state of the Art Cupping Lab has been built for cupping and testing coffees. Also a brew-room (April 2019) will be ready that will have all kinds of coffee preparation methods available for testing.
Amsterdam Coffee Lab will also host all specialty coffee related workshops / certified SCA education. Wouter, founder of Amsterdam Coffee Lab: ” We can offer all modules of the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) Coffee Skills Program (CSP): Introduction to Coffee, Brewing, Barista Skills, Sensory Skills, Green Coffee and Roasting.
