We have a watermelon nitrogen fermentation coffee from Finca Milan! For those who like co-fermented coffees, this one is delicious, more subtle and refined than our previous ‘Melondo’ but as delicious. We find in the cup watermelon, kiwi and cantaloupe.
The coffee is fermented in a bioreactor where it is combined with fruit must (watermelon in this case), starter cultures, and culturing leachates. The oxygen inside the bioreactor is replaced with nitrogen. Throughout this process, the temperature, pH, and Brix levels are closely monitored. The parameters for these fermentations are established based on continuous research and are adhered to a specific range of values. After fermentation and removing of the mucilage, the coffee beans undergo a meticulous drying process. They are first sun-dried for twenty days, soaking up the natural essence of the sun. This is followed by a five-day mechanical drying period to fine-tune the moisture content. This combination of drying methods preserves the beans’ delicate flavours and aromas.

Dak Coffee Roasters
Dak Coffee Roasters was founded by Louis-Philippe Boucher & Veronique Lagarde in 2019. Originally from Montreal, Canada, the duo roamed around Europe for more than 8 years before settling in Amsterdam where they founded the roastery. Dak means “roof” in Danish, and it was a moment in 2019 when Louis-Philippe was sitting on the roof of his home, drinking coffee when he decided to start his own roastery. Dak now consists of a small team of six
“Coffee has always been part of our lives, although our love for specialty coffee has grown exponentially in the past few years. After working many years respectively in Finance & Marketing, we decided to pursue our dream, opening a coffee roastery. Dak was born from true passion for coffee and the desire to embark on a journey of endless discoveries.
“We select our coffees based on their unique tasting profiles and of course that are 100% fully traceable. We partner with importers that share our values and we roast each one of our coffees carefully to bring the best flavours they have to offer.”
—Louis-Philippe & Veronique
