Frequently Asked Questions
Yes the filter coffee is our heartbeat. We offer pour‑over using V60, plus batch brew made fresh every 30 minutes. You can choose any single origin from our current menu. Our baristas adjust grind size and pour speed for each bean. It’s filter coffee treated like fine wine.
Absolutely. WiFi is fast and free, plenty of outlets, and the noise stays low – no loud music or shouting. Laptops are welcome anytime. The only tricky hour is Friday at 10am during the free cupping, but otherwise it’s a remote worker’s dream in Prenzlauer Berg.
Of course. Walk straight to the retail shelves. We sell whole beans in 250g and 1kg bags, roasted within the last 7 days. Staff can help you choose based on your brew method (espresso vs filter) and flavor preferences. No purchase of a drink required.
Yes the oat milk and soy milk are available for an extra 0.50. We use organic, unsweetened oat milk that doesn't overpower the coffee. No almond milk at the moment, sorry. And we never charge extra for unless foam or a second shot.
Very. Our staff love coffee geeks but they’re just as happy helping a first‑timer. Ask for a “mild, less acidic” pour‑over and they’ll point you to a Brazilian or Colombian. No judgment, no jargon overload. Everyone starts somewhere.
