Hikofi Mini Coffee Guide
Mini coffee info guide: What to pay attention to in order to drink better coffee?
Freshly roasted and ground coffee
Use coffee that has not been roasted more than 6 months ago. For maximum flavor and aroma, grind it just before preparation.
Storage
Store the coffee in a room that does not exceed 22°C. It is mainly damaged by heat and light. You can also store coffee in the freezer. Coffee's enemy is oxygen, so always squeeze the air out of the bag before closing.
Grinding
Different preparations require different grinds. Turkish coffee needs the finest, followed by espresso and cafeteria. For filter coffee, we need coarser ground coffee. The coarsest grinding is for the French press.
Water
We recommend using filtered water. The taste of the coffee will be better, and you will also protect your devices from limescale.
Temperature
Coffee is sensitive to temperature. In all preparations, it should not exceed 94-95°C. For cold brew coffee, use cold water, to which you can also add ice cubes.
Cleanliness
Regularly clean your coffee machines and accessories, including the grinder and water heater. Limescale affects the taste of water and consequently coffee.

The art of coffee cultivation
This coffee, grown by local farmers, is processed at the Alemayehu Tilahun washing station in Lalesi, Gedeb, part of the Yirgacheffe region. The coffee cherries are picked exclusively by hand to ensure only the ripest fruit. Immediately after harvesting, they are cleaned and sorted by density – meaning only the best beans that are ideally ripe remain. This is followed by careful fermentation in water tanks, which lasts an average of 72 hours. During this time, rich and complex flavors develop. After fermentation, the coffee is further sorted – the lighter cherries are removed, while the heavier ones become the basis for premium coffee lots. For the perfect finish, the coffee is soaked in clean water and dried on raised African beds for 8-20 days, to the ideal moisture content. The precise turning of the cherries during drying and monitoring ensure a balanced, clean and extremely aromatic cup as the final product.
Description of the region and the coffee grower
Alemayehu, a native of the Gedeb area, has been working with coffee for almost 20 years. In 2018, he built his coffee processing station with the vision of buying only fully ripe cherries from local farmers in Lalesa. He attributes his success to the close relationships he has built with the community and farmers. Today, the processing station is affiliated with Origin Land Coffee, a company founded in 2022 by Abenezer Asfaw and Mikyas Alemu. Lalesa is renowned as one of the best coffee growing areas in Gedeb. The forest environment, with the shade of other trees that the coffee tree needs to develop sweet cherries, allows for sustainable and high-quality production. Origin Land Coffee prioritizes transparency, sustainable development, and building strong relationships with farmers and coffee processing stations.
