Coffee grounds ()
Are you wanting to up your coffee game? Or take advantage of some German roasteries and coffee companies? Or maybe you just want to have something special to sip on during the weekends?
Whatever your reasoning (and when did anyone need a reason to buy coffee?), coffee can be a fun way to experience something new without leaving the house. Trying some new coffee roasteries or subscriptions can bring some fun and adventure to your morning cup of joe.
Kaffeerösterei Kaiserslautern, Kaiserslautern

Reismühle Kaffeemanufaktur, Reismühle
Located 40 minutes away from Kaiserslautern en route to Saarbrücken, this roastery is open to visit, tour, experience roasting demonstrations or simply relax over a meal and coffee. They also host special Sunday brunches; visit their website for dates and details on brunches. You can buy beans directly from their site, as well as find them at local grocery stores.
Blank Roast Kaffeemanufaktur, Neustadt on the Weinstrasse
While you can find their beans at Wasgau grocery stores, the website offers lots more options for different roasts and flavors of beans and equipment for each method of brewing. You can simply order beans online to be delivered to your house, but you can also visit the roastery and participate in different workshops such as coffee tasting and learning how to become a barista.
Himmelwach, Hamburg
This coffee company isn’t all about excessive sugars or additives. Himmelwach is committed to offering a variety of flavors, so you can keep experiencing something new and different—but without the unnatural ingredients.
