Supremo Kaffeerösterei, Munich

By Kenny Mah and CK Lim


Coffee is a network.

We are introduced to Supremo Kaffeerösterei by Klaus Hierer, barista and owner of KiezKantine Neuhausen in Munich. Klaus gets his beans from Supremo, a Bavaria-based coffee roaster, and if his brews are anything to judge by, Supremo does a great job with sourcing and roasting their beans.

Supremo’s Kaffeerösterei (coffee roastery) is located in the quiet suburbs of Unterhaching, that is about half an hour away via the S3 S-Bahn towards Holzkirchen. We are greeted by a nondescript white building that looks not unlike a small factory of sorts. Inside is a different story…

There is a spacious seating area overlooking the gardens of neighbours opposite the streets. There is a store with bags of roasted beans and shelves of brewing equipment. Inside the roastery, the magic happens with freshly roasted direct trade microlot coffees, single origin beans and Cup Of Excellence selections.

The real star of Supremo Kaffeerösterei has to be its coffee bar, of course. Besides the usual options from the espresso machine, there is also a filter coffee menu. Four methods are offered: French press, Aero press, V60 filter, and the traditional German-style brewing method using the Karlsbader kanne.

Also known as the Bayreuth Pour Over Brewer, the resultant cuppa is light and delicious. (More information about this porcelain coffee maker here.)

Quite simply, Supremo Kaffeerösterei is a Bavarian coffee haven.

我們在KiezKantine Neuhausen喝咖啡時,
通過老闆Klaus Hierer介紹,我們認識了Supremo Kaffeerösterei,
這家位於慕尼黑郊區的咖啡館兼烘豆坊。
會特意大老遠的去拜訪Supremo Kaffeerösterei,
除了在KiezKantine Neuhausen喝過他們的豆子,覺得很喜歡外,
另一個原因就是聽聞這里會用卡爾斯巴德壺來沖泡咖啡。
自從幾年前從書上看到這咖啡沖泡器的介紹后,
就一直想看看它的廬山真面,
難得有這個機會,又怎麼能錯過呢?

來到這家咖啡館的門口,發現它佔地蠻大的,外觀看起來有點像一家小型工廠。
館裡頭乾淨明亮,還有好些面對外頭花園的好位子。
咖啡吧檯哪則擺滿了不同的咖啡器材,
顧客可以自由選擇沖泡器材和喜歡的豆子。
我們點了一杯卡爾斯巴德壺沖泡的單品和一杯卡布,
然後外加兩份糕點當早餐。
卡爾斯巴德壺沖泡出來的咖啡不如通過濾紙來得清澈,
不過味道輕盈,是我喜歡的口感類型。
這裡除了咖啡館的部份外,同時還設有烘豆室和購物區。
這的烘豆室大且先進,而烘豆師是一位腼腆可愛的大男生。
知道我們從大老遠來喝咖啡后,他還泡了好幾杯咖啡讓我們品嚐。
至於購物區那除了售賣各種豆子外,
還有林林總總的咖啡器材和一些周邊產品。
這的豆子和器材選擇是我看過最齊全的一家,讓人看得眼花繚亂的。
所以來到這區千萬要注意,不然結果就像我一樣,
離開時赫然發現手裡竟然不小心多了幾包豆子一套的卡爾斯巴德壺,嚇人吧?

[…] Klaus mans the front of house, and it’s great fun chatting with a fellow coffee geek, especially one as exuberant as this young German. The way his eyes light up as we discuss different brewing methods is infectious. Thanks to him, we discover where to finally get a Karlsbader Kanne (at his beans supplier, Supremo — but more on this in a later post). […]
