Andyland Coffee
Exploring the world of specialty coffee, one bean at a time. Documenting origins, varieties, and tasting notes along the way.
Explore My Coffee DatabaseMy Coffee Adventure
I think every coffee has its place. Be it instant from the camping billy, an early morning stove-top to watch the champion's league, a mediocre filter to sponge some free Wifi or a funky specialty coffee. I always savour the moment.
For a long time I made stove top coffee, but in 2014, after moving to Amsterdam from Sydney, I bought myself a La Marzocco GS3 and started learning more about specialty coffee. Shortly thereafter I crossed paths with some Dutch barista & roasting legends and here I am a few years later with a Lyn Weber EG-1 Onyx and a freezer full of competition coffee.
