COVID-19 UPDATE
Our guests can leave their contact information for the purpose of «contact tracing» if they want. This is not mandatory.
Stay cautious and safe!
Single Origin
The beans for each of our coffees originate from one single farm or co-operative where they were grown, dried and washed. We do not mix them with beans of other origins – we do not do blends. Instead, we only buy coffees that convince by themselves, without having to hide their flavours by mixing with other coffees.
Lighter Roasts
Our coffees are roasted lighter than traditionally or commercially roasted coffee. With a lighter roast, the unique flavours of a specific coffee are accentuated, which vary by region, variety and many other factors. If coffee is roasted too dark, it loses this specific aroma profile and mostly just tastes of roasting flavours.
Roasted in Bern
Since mid-2018 our roastery’s home is the city’s Northern part. Here we have spent uncountable hours roasting many different coffees to find the right ones and make them taste as delicious as possible. The coffees available in our online shop and café have been chosen carefully after many tests thorough evaluation.
Fair & Sustainable
For us, fair trade and sustainable business and production practices go without saying. We don’t rely on labels, but instead prefer to invest in long-term relationships with real people and in as-direct-as-possible supply chains without unnecessary detours. The prices we pay for coffee are always higher than the Fairtrade price for coffee.
Café
At the Drip Roasters Café located right at Eigerplatz in Bern (Belpstrasse 69) you will find freshly roasted specialty coffee, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages, something to snack and a cozy place to relax. Depending on your preferences, we prepare your coffee as hand drip or with our La Marzocco Linea Mini espresso machine. Besides cow milk we also have oat and soy milk as alternatives. Even something small to eat is not missing. Whether with friends, for work with your laptop or just for a coffee after lunch, we are looking forward to your visit!
Roastery
Since 2018 we are roasting selected coffee beans on our Arc Roaster. The coffees are available in our online shop as well as in some stores, restaurants and cafés. The roastery is located in the Northern part of Bern. Here, we have been experimenting, tasting, optimizing and producing our coffees since the beginning. Only the coffees that reach our requirements for taste and quality find their ways into the bag or cup. Even though we like our little roastery in Breitenrain, we are already looking for a larger space due to increased demand.
Blog
As of 1st of July 2020 or 1st of August 2020 we are looking to hire two people, each for a 20-50% hourly salary position, to support us as Specialty Coffee Barista in the café. We are looking for a good match to work closely with us. It is important that you have high social competencies, work in a precise manner and put a lot of importance on quality. We need someone, who wants to learn more about Specialty Coffee or who already knows a lot about it and can share that knowledge with our customers.
