EQ. Coffee Set

As Intense as a Piece of Dark Choclate

EQ. ESPRESSO 60 is an espresso for those who like it strong. In the cup, it is intense and low in acidity, with the taste of dark chocolate. Its high Robusta content ensures a pleasantly rich crema that makes every sip particularly velvety.

Tips For Preparation

As a café crème, chocolate and a pleasant sweetness dominate, which combine perfectly with the creaminess of milk (or milk alternatives) in milk drinks. It is also a hit when prepared in an espresso machine. Do you like sugar in your coffee? Thanks to its strong roasted aromas, this coffee is suitable for all beverage preparations – just as you like it.

A Low-acid Blend full of Character with a Rich Crema

EQ. ESPRESSO 60 owes its complexity to a carefully composed blend from three countries of origin. The base is a Brazilian coffee that tastes of roasted hazelnuts and has a pleasantly low-acid profile. 40% high-quality Robusta from Uganda gives the blend strength, an intense chocolatey depth, and the rich crema that makes baristas' hearts beat faster. A proportion of Colombian coffee rounds off the flavor profile and brings a fine structure and balanced freshness to the fore, giving the espresso additional complexity.

The Brazilian portion comes from the Fazenda Rainha farm in Minas Gerais. It is located at an altitude of 1,600 meters on volcanic soil. The combination of location and microclimate provides ideal growing conditions for high-quality coffees.

The Ugandan contribution comes from the export company ACPCU, which brings together 32 cooperatives. Over 16,000 farmers from diverse, multi-ethnic communities pursue a common mission: to practice future-oriented and progressive agriculture.

The Colombian piece of the puzzle comes from the Alianza Café cooperative in Nariño. Around 1,000 members grow high-quality coffee here, spread across the entire region at altitudes between 1,900 and 2,300 meters.

A Classic Chocolatey Espresso

EQ. ESPRESSO 75 is an espresso for anyone who loves a round, balanced flavor. 75 % Arabica and 25 % Robusta beans blend together to create a strong blend that unfolds dark chocolate notes in every cup. The blend consists of high-quality green coffee beans from Ethiopia, Brazil, and India, which not only give the espresso a low-acid character, but also ensure a harmonious balance between sweetness, spice, and subtle roasted aromas.

Tips for preparation

Do you like cappuccino, other milk drinks, or maybe a little sugar? Then EQ. ESPRESSO 75 is perfect for you! Especially when combined with milk (or milk alternatives), it creates a strong, creamy coffee that loses none of its powerful character.

With this high-quality Arabica-Robusta Blend, Every Crema Is Perfect

It's all in the blend: 75 % Arabica creates an intense, low-acid espresso that, thanks to the 25 % Robusta content, reliably delivers a golden crema every day. The beans for this harmonious blend come from three countries: Brazil, Ethiopia, and India. While the high-quality Arabica beans from Brazil and Ethiopia provide a chocolatey note and a fine, harmonious sweetness, the first-class Robusta from India brings strength and crema.

In Brazil, we work with the APAS cooperative in the southeast, with whom we share the same commitment to exceptional quality and fair production conditions. The farmers carefully harvest and select the coffee cherries by hand and let them dry in the sun – this is how the particularly chocolatey notes typical of Brazil develop. In Ethiopia, we invest in training in collaboration with Welthungerhilfe and local cooperatives (e.g., in the Limu region) so that farmers can improve the quality of their harvests. This not only increases their income in the long term, but also improves their living conditions.

A Spicy, Strong Character

EQ. CAFE CREMA 100 is perfect for those who prefer to enjoy their coffee from a fully automatic machine without compromising on balance and character. Its taste is spicy and low in acidity, with intense cocoa notes and a hint of nutmeg. The strong roast profile combines the sweetness of Brazilian and Colombian beans with the spicy nuances of Indonesia to create a harmonious composition that impresses in every cup.

Tips for Preparation:

Whether enjoyed on its own, with milk (or milk alternatives), or a little sugar, EQ. CAFE CREMA 100 always tastes great—strong, harmonious, and full of character.

Different origins, united for exceptional coffee

EQ. CAFE CREMA 100 combines the best of Brazil, Indonesia, and the Democratic Republic of Congo. In Brazil, we work with the APAS cooperative in the southeast. Today, 71 farmers belong to the organization. Together, they focus on quality, craftsmanship, and sustainable methods, from harvesting to processing. The farmers carefully harvest and select the coffee cherries by hand and leave them to dry in the sun – this is how the nutty, chocolatey notes typical of Brazil develop.

Musfaha Mandiri and its affiliated farmers supply the Indonesian piece of the puzzle from the highlands of Sumatra. There, the coffee is grown by over 600 farmers, mainly at altitudes of 1,600 – 2,000 meters. Musfaha has been working closely with the farmers for years and monitors all processes to deliver consistently exceptional quality and to continuously improve it. Their beans undergo an unusual processing method: the wet hulled process typical of the country.

This type of processing emphasizes the flavor and ensures a low-acid result. The coffee contributes a spicy, slightly earthy depth to the blend.

The Congolese portion is produced by the Rebuild Women's Hope (RWH) cooperative, which was founded in 2013 by Marceline Budza, a human rights activist, and has been run by her ever since. The female-led organization is committed to strengthening women's rights in Congo, enabling female coffee farmers to achieve economic independence and giving them decision-making power. A good standard of living for the entire community—that is their vision. The cooperative is currently investing in the construction of a women's center and a hospital. RWH operates four washing stations where the coffee cherries are processed after harvesting. This type of washed processing rounds off the blend with nutty-sweet notes and a subtle spiciness.
