Micro roastery in the heart of Vejle.
Piccolo Coffee is built on a shared fascination with what coffee can be. Not to make as much as possible, but to do it properly. One batch at a time, with a focus on flavour, origin and good craftsmanship.
Founded on curiosity.
My name is Marinus. My interest in coffee started as a barista, where I slowly discovered how much hides in a cup of coffee. Flavour, origin, growing, chemistry and craft. It sparked a curiosity that still drives me today.
Piccolo Coffee is named after the small coffee drink and the idea that small things can hold great potential. I roast all the coffee myself, without middlemen and without big warehouses. Just freshly roasted coffee, roasted with a focus on flavour and quality.
Thank you for joining the journey.
We tasted our way to a simple truth.
Good coffee does not need big words. For us it is first and foremost about good beans, a precise roast and respect for the raw material we work with. We only work with specialty coffee, where we know the coffee's origin, region and processing. That lets us roast with more precision and highlight what makes each coffee special. The flavour should be clean, balanced and honest, without us trying to make it more than it is.
Every roast batch is a lesson.
Today I roast on a ROEST P3000. It is an electric production roaster built to give very precise control over the process from start to finish. It works with convection heat, where hot air plays a big role in the roast, and that gives a more even and clean development of the coffee. For me it means I can work closer to the bean and adjust the profile to each coffee's origin, density, processing and intended flavour.
Although the P3000 can roast up to 3 kilos at a time, for me it is not about making as much as possible. It is about roasting consistently, precisely and with respect for the coffee I have chosen to work with. Every coffee gets its own profile, so the roast supports the raw material instead of drowning it out. The goal is a cup that tastes clean, balanced and clearly of the place it comes from.
Taste the difference yourself.
All our coffees are specialty grade, single origin and roasted to order.
