Coffee Time

Where does our coffee come from?

Our coffee comes from a small, local coffee roaster in Birsfelden - Fritz Bertschi AG. At Bertschi-Café fresh coffee has been roasted every day since 1932. They are pioneers for fair-trade coffee in Switzerland. In 1992, Fritz Bertschi AG signed the License No. 1-contract with the Max Havelaar Foundation and has also been licensed as a Bio-Suisse company since 1994. Out of roughly ninety different types of coffee bushes, only two types are important for coffee production: Coffee Arabica and Coffee Robusta. A balanced climate, location as well as ideal soil conditions are crucial for the coffee bush to thrive. Bertschi-Café purchase their coffee beans directly from coffee cooperatives in Guatemala, Mexico and Peru. Only the ripe coffee cherries are carefully handpicked for best quality. The typical coffee aroma develops while the fermented coffee beans are roasted. Bertschi-Café relies on their old-fashioned and classic drum roaster, as well as the experience of their employees. The drum rotates around its own axis, where the beans are constantly kept moving for an even roasting. Afterwards they are gently heated to a maximum of 215°C for 15 to 17 minutes and are closely monitored by the roasting master. He is crucial for this process since a few seconds can decide on a well-rounded or bitter coffee. Once this point is reached, the beans leave the roasting drum and are rapidly cooled on a strainer. Such carefully roasted coffee breaks down its natural acidity and is particularly well digested. Bertschi-Café offers up to twenty different coffee blends. We have chosen two of these especially for you. You can enjoy them in our beautiful bar and during breakfast.
