Buy coffee beans – freshly roasted from our roastery in Zurich and Bern
Freshly roasted coffee beans straight from our own roastery – whether for espresso, filter coffee, or omni-roast. As a specialist roastery with showrooms in Bern and Zurich, we roast in small batches, analyze the extraction chemistry of each bean, and deliver the finished profile directly to your door. Delivery throughout Switzerland and Liechtenstein takes 2–4 business days.
Why we roast our own
It would definitely be easier to buy ready-made beans from a large roaster. That's more predictable and cheaper. We still don't do it, though. Why? Because we can't shake the allure of extraction chemistry.
We want to know what happens when we develop an Ethiopian Yirgacheffe for exactly 15 seconds longer. Does it lose its floral nuances? Does the chocolatey body become more pronounced? These are the questions that drive us. And the answers end up in your cup.
Our roaster is a trained chemist and specialist in aroma development. This isn't just a marketing slogan, but the foundation of our work: it fundamentally changes how we create roasting profiles, analyze extraction errors, and specifically shape the mouthfeel of the coffee.
The chemistry behind it – explained briefly
Coffee roasting is applied chemistry. Three processes significantly define the flavor profile in your cup:
| process | What happens | What you taste |
|---|---|---|
| Maillard reaction | Amino acids react with sugars, producing hundreds of complex flavor compounds. | Nutty, caramel, roasted aromas, heavy body |
| Caramelization | Sugars decompose and caramelize under heat. | Sweetness, viscosity, dense finish |
| Pyrolysis | Cell structures decompose, releasing CO2 and aromatic coffee oils. | Deep, aromatic complexity |
The key point is that every raw coffee bean reacts differently. Altitude, variety, and processing determine its potential. That's why we roast in small batches and continuously adjust the profiles. A harvest in January behaves differently than one in February – we listen to the bean, not a rigid recipe.
Our roasts in focus
Espresso roasts: Dense body and sweetness
The profileA medium roast with a perfect balance of sweetness, delicate vibrancy, and an exceptionally full body. Perfectly suited for classic espresso and creamy milk-based drinks.
Our recommendationOur Cozy Chocolate and Nutty Delight blends are suitable for 90% of all home barista setups. They are chocolatey, nutty, and extremely reliable. Ideal for breaking in a new espresso machine or grinder flawlessly.
Filter roasts: Pure Origin character
The profileLightly roasted to bring the origin and terroir directly into the cup. An Ethiopian coffee tastes like Ethiopia, a Guatemalan coffee like Guatemala.
Our recommendationIf you're looking for complex fruit notes and vibrancy, this is the coffee for you. It works best with pour-over, Aeropress, or batch brewer – and for those who like to experiment, also as a modern espresso from a top-calibrated portafilter machine.
Omniroast: Flexible for espresso and filter.
The profileA medium roast that combines the best of both worlds. Designed for those who don't want to commit to a single brewing method.
Our recommendationThe perfect entry point if you brew filter coffee and espresso simultaneously. It's forgiving and delivers a rich result with all high-quality coffee grinders .
What makes us stand out as a roastery
Every roast in our shop has a clear origin. We document how we roasted it and what aromas you can expect. The tasting notes come directly from us.
Transparency regarding freshness: The roasting date is printed on every package. But be careful – fresh from the roaster doesn't always mean ready to drink immediately. Espresso roasts, in particular, need a few days to rest (degassing) to fully develop their rich body. Some beans, especially those processed naturally, only reach their sweet spot after weeks. We communicate this because it's the chemical truth.
One last honest note: Supermarket beans function mechanically in any machine. Whether our freshly roasted specialties make a decisive difference in taste for you is something you'll have to decide for yourself. We invite you to simply try our interpretation of body and aroma. This is our honest opinion, not a marketing ploy.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
How fresh are your coffee beans?
You can find the roasting date on every package. Important: We recommend letting espresso roasts rest for a few days after the roasting date to allow the CO2 to escape. Some beans only develop their full, complex aromas after a longer storage period.
Which roast is right for me?
It depends on your setup. Our clear basic recommendation for the perfect start: Cozy Chocolate or Nutty Delight for espresso and milk drinks. They deliver that rich, chocolatey body that 90% of customers are looking for. Only if you've mastered your setup and want to experiment with fruitiness should you add Wild Peach as an exciting complement. Questions? Write to us: office@coffeecoachingclub.ch

Perfectly combined with
Our beans deserve a setup that can extract their full physical potential:
- Varia Single-Dose Mills – minimal retention, maximum freshness with every use
- Acaia precision scales – exact dosing, reproducible results in the cup
- Normcore Barista Tools – clean puck preparation prevents channeling
- Portafilters & espresso machines – the basis for stable temperature and rich body
Roastery tip: New to specialty coffee? Start with our Omniroast. It's approachable yet complex enough to taste the difference. Once you know how your grinder performs, switch to espresso roasts like Cozy Chocolate to extract maximum texture. And for the more adventurous among you: Wild Peach is a great addition for subtle fruitiness – but only once your grinder is perfectly calibrated.
