Price update

So we secured 3 of the top ten speciality coffees in the world and we are proud of it, but with success comes demand, and with demand price increases are a side affect. We have had no significant increase for a year, and now we have three big increases in Yirgacheffe, Harrar and Atractiva.

Our online Price List reflects these new prices.

Prices dropped and minor changes

We were happy to find out that we have been able to secure a better price for the Krups Burr Grinders. If you are paying via electronic transfer it is less the R530.00 for a good quality burr grinder.

We have also made some minor changes on the payment and order notifications, to ensure we are kept in the loop

Model Recommendations Changed

With the Ena3 becoming more available to us in South Africa, we have decided to mark it as the best buy. This decisions was driven by the fact that the coffee machineoffers Jura quality at a great price. And it is essentially the same maker as the Ena5

Add a Profi Frother to the Ena3 and you can make most coffee specialities

Mandheling back in stock

After we rejected the last shipment the new shipment has arrived and it is back to specialty grade standard so this popular coffee is back, and the new crop makes the grade. Nice surprise for the new year to have the coffee that has become famous for the abuse of the luwak, but Mandheling is a wet processed coffee and now kopi luwak to be found only good green bean from from animal abuse

Harrar out of stock, and new coffee list

We have now published our coffee list so that it reflects the availability of the coffees. The nature of specialty coffee means we are dependent on the crop and the yield, so this page will dynamically reflect our current availability. If something is marked SOLD OUT then it means we have no stock, but as soon as we get the latest crop, and it makes specialty grade, then we will have it back in stock. If a coffee is removed totally then either the crop is bad, or we have lost access to the coffee.

On this note we have now completed our allocation of Harrar, we have ordered but have no indication on when it will be avaiable again.

SCAA winner here

Los Naranjos is here. The winner of the coveted SCAA world's best specialty coffee is ready to be enjoyed by South Africans. The coffee is medium bodied and very enjoyable, especially in espresso form. We also have new stock of Organica (we called it Asorganic last year) and the new La Piramide is here too. The La Piramide is now not as umami dominent and we like it as espresso too, rather than last years crop which almost required milk. Los Naranjos is available in limited quantities.

Homemakers Show 3rd - 5th September

Quaffee was in full force at the Homemakers. We had a great range of Jura Coffee Machines to suit home and office needs. Quaffee was able to launch our new coffee Machine Rental for businesses. From R228.87 exclusive per mouth, with 15% escalation, you get the wonderful Jura Impresssa F50. This machine just keeps on making coffee.

I was totally amazed at the number of people who came up to us and raved about their Jura machines. They just keep on making not only great coffee but just don't break. We at quaffee no this, but to hear from others is the true test that Jura is the leading coffee machine in the world.

The Quaffee coffee beans where also a great hit and a sell out. It just goes to show that freshly roasted specialty grade coffee is the only way coffee should be sold and drunk.

New Coffees

We have two new coffees Palma from Nicaragua and Yigde Highlands from Papua New Guinea. The Yigde is definately better as an espresso, as the flavours are delicate and gentle. The Palma has more body, and people liking the older traditional roasts will prefer this one
