New pages: fresh-roast.md
Updated pages:
sample-roasters.md— added Fresh Roast SR540/SR800 in consumer tier below Behmor Jake; source addedroast-machine-types.md— added Fresh Roast SR540/SR800 entry in Compact Specialty Roasters section; source addedsources.md— added Home Roasting Supplies (website)index.md— added fresh-roast entry
Key findings: Fresh Roast was founded 1995 by Tim Skaling (Utah) as a modified hot-air popcorn popper; son Sam Skaling (CEO) scaled it to Amazon dominance. Current models SR540 (334, 226g wet/170g dry) are fluid-bed, 9-level heat/fan, manual-analog only — no Artisan, Cropster, or profiling software support. 120V North American only. Warranty void internationally. The SR800 is the cheapest significant-capacity home fluid-bed roaster available but belongs firmly in the consumer tier; not relevant to Kaiserblick’s sample roasting programme. Relevant as market context for green coffee customers who home-roast. NOTE: the original freshroastedcoffee-com-crawl.md file in Import was the wrong website (Fresh Roasted Coffee LLC, a Pennsylvania coffee retailer); it was deleted and the correct manufacturer site (homeroastingsupplies.com) was re-crawled.

Key findings: Behmor’s core innovation is a patented electric thermal afterburner enabling indoor drum roasting without ventilation. The Jake (1 kg, Artisan via USB, bean thermocouple) is the only Behmor model with profiling software compatibility. Most notable for Kaiserblick: the Behmor Inspired Program has donated 1,200+ roasters to coffee-farming communities worldwide, with active work in El Salvador — a model of closing the farmer-to-cup knowledge gap at origin.

Key findings:
- McKinnon India: Asia-Pacific/Africa only; no path to El Salvador. Non-viable.
- Jotagallo: BECOLSUB and ECOMILL are Cenicafé-standardised designs independently manufactured by both Jotagallo and JM Estrada — not proprietary to either. Useful as price comparison source; no Central America distributor.
- GrainPro: confirms 69 kg Hermetic Bag Premium™ is the specialty export standard; Hermetic Pouch (2,500g) useful for buyer samples; Neumann Gruppe USA partnership. ES contact: luis@grainpro.com.
- Bühler: minimum 10,000 t/year scale; SORTEX optical sorters (20 t/h) — relevant only as ceiling reference for optical sorting technology. Not a procurement candidate.

Key findings: JM Estrada is the primary Latin American Guardiola manufacturer — the term “Guardiola” originates from their product line. The 20@ (312.5 kg, 3½ HP) is the smallest active model relevant for Kaiserblick phase 1. BECOLSUB-300 is a direct competitor to Penagos ECOLINE-400 at micro-mill scale, using fermentation + mechanical demucilaging rather than zero-water pulping. ECOMILL-Cenicafé (licensed from Colombia’s national coffee research centre) reduces water consumption by 97%+ with performance validated in controlled trials. No Central America distributor or reference installation found. Direct procurement from Colombia factory.

Key findings: PRF is backed by PDG Media/Perfect Daily Grind and has run in El Salvador, Honduras, Brazil, Guatemala, and Colombia. The 11th edition (El Salvador 2026, March 26–27, Hilton San Salvador) featured four competitions: Global Roasting Championship (Cropster/Nucleus), Cold Brew Championship (Toddy), Global Cupping Championship (PDG Media), and Soil of Excellence (Belco) — the latter recognises regenerative agriculture producers and connects winners to Belco for differentiated European lot sales. This is directly relevant for Kaiserblick’s organic/regenerative positioning. Global Coffee Awards ceremony is co-hosted by PRF on Day 1 evening (“Best Roaster in the World”). Algrano runs a sample matchmaking station at PRF — a webinar by Algrano’s Luiza Pereira explains that most fair samples fail due to missing commercial info, not quality. PRF sponsors 350 free admissions per edition for producers (Diamond sponsor: MTPak Coffee). PRF website contains copy-paste errors from Honduras edition in the El Salvador 2026 FAQ (flagged in source summary, not contradictions).

Key findings: Oliver is the international industry benchmark for gravity separators (est. 1930, La Junta CO, 4th-generation, coffee client since 1952). Hi-Cap HC51/HC81 (manual controls, 3–5 fan zones) and Voyager GVX1020 (PLC, 20 recipes, VFD) are the relevant scale for Kaiserblick. Maxi Cap series (30,000–42,000 lbs/hr corn) is industrial-scale and not applicable. Central America contact: Ian Ely (ian.ely@olivermanufacturing.com). No El Salvador distributor named on website.

Key findings: EcoSuper (pre-pulping green separation) and Divided Drum Dryer (simultaneous multi-lot drying) are the two most strategically relevant machines for Kaiserblick’s micro-lot model. The CSP 3-probe temperature controller enables documented drying curves directly supporting the traceability narrative for European buyers. The Flutu-Ar system is Pinhalense’s proprietary air+vibration flotation technology used across destoners, gravity separators, and combined hullers. Pinhalense claims pioneering status for pulped natural/honey processing — a marketing claim, not independently verified.

Key findings: LOW-fit target — absolute certification barrier. Chronic.’s policy requires ALL coffees to be both EU organic (Bio) AND Fairtrade certified without exception (“si un café n’est pas Bio & Fairtrade, il ne rentre tout simplement pas dans notre gamme”). Kaiserblick holds neither certification currently. Founded 2017 in French-speaking Switzerland. B Corp certified; also holds EcoEntreprise Excellence and 1% for the Planet. Loring roaster; pan-Swiss brand (FR/DE/IT/EN); price CHF 9.50–30/250g. No El Salvador in current range. HORECA B2B with 48h delivery. Long-term potential only if Kaiserblick pursues both certifications; future direct-trade / blockchain ambitions could eventually create a pathway.

Four-tier coffee system: CLASSIC / UNCOMMON / MONO/RARE / APEX (World competition level). Roasts on Loring S35 Kestrel; uses Sovda color sorter. Selection via blind cupping — samples must win independently. No El Salvador in current range (clean slate). Direct variety overlap: Maragesha (from Colombia, Wilder Lazo, €15.1–€129.9/bag) and Pink Bourbon (Wilton Benitez, €14–€115.6/bag) both in MONO/RARE. Proposed sample priority: (1) Maragesha from El Salvador (direct variety match), (2) Bernardina/Sudan Rume for APEX tier, (3) Pink Bourbon. Outreach note: competition judge background — lead with the cup, not the story. Pre-register wholesale account before WoC.

Key findings: HIGH-fit WoC Brussels 2026 target. Active El Salvador programme confirmed: “El Salvador – Los Angeles” (Natural, Melon · White Sugar · Pomegranate, €16.45, SEASONAL). El Salvador named explicitly in their direct-trade origin story. 82% direct-trade model; minimum 1.5× world market price; annual farm visits. Loring roaster (eco, light-roast capable). Flagship bar at Piet Heinstraat 15, Den Haag. Active Dutch B2B (restaurants, coffee bars, lunch rooms). Subscription programme with ~30 seasonal varieties/year from ~10 countries. Priority action before outreach: identify which “Finca Los Ángeles” in El Salvador is their current supplier to avoid approaching a competitor’s client.

Source: Frekko (website) — Dutch micro roastery and espresso equipment retailer near Breda; 100+ page crawl of frekko.nl
Pages created: wiki/frekko.md
Pages updated: wiki/index.md, wiki/sources.md
Key findings: Frekko is primarily an equipment retailer (ECM, La Marzocco, DF grinders) that added a micro roastery in 2022. Coffee range: Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, Rwanda — no El Salvador, no Central America. Buys green coffee through importers, not direct from producers. Local B2B programme (“Serveer zelf FREKKO”) delivers to Dutch hospitality in reusable tins. Originally classified HIGH-fit in Theia’s European Buyer Landscape research; reassessed as LOW fit for Kaiserblick’s green coffee export. Entry-level specialty price points (€11–€17/250g). Potential alternative as a Netherlands roasted-coffee distribution partner, but not a WoC 2026 green coffee outreach target.

Key findings: No El Salvador in current featured range (clean-slate). Blog post “Organic Farming and Changing the Coffee Landscape” includes a “Finca El Salvador” image — signals prior or active ES interest; full post content not captured. Anaerobic processing prominently featured (two espresso offerings). Active blog covers Pink Bourbon origins — natural talking point for Kaiserblick. Data severely limited (homepage only); JS-capable re-crawl recommended before outreach, especially targeting the ES blog post.

Key findings: No El Salvador in current range (clean-slate). Sources via Nordic Approach and The Coffee Quest — both already on Kaiserblick’s target importer list, creating an indirect warm channel. Strongly experimental processing profile (anaerobic, advanced fermentation, yeast inoculation) aligns with Kaiserblick’s processing capabilities. No EU BIO cert requirement. Wholesale portal active. New importer name to track: Typica Europe. HIGH-fit WoC Brussels 2026 target.

Key findings: Deep ES programme confirmed — 5 partner farms (Himalaya, Los Pirineos, Lechuza, El Cerro, El Oasis). Christophe Servell is France’s leading specialty roaster voice (Best Roaster France; Outstanding Achievement Award ECS 2024). Published “Emancipation Coffee” (March 2025) advocating multi-year, cost-covering prices with Central American producers — visited ES partners early 2025. New discovery: Finca El Oasis (Fernando Lima, 500+ ha, organic, agroforestry pioneer) appeared in September 2024 subscription. Retail benchmarks: €75/kg (Himalaya Bourbon Rouge), €83/kg (Los Pirineos Pacamara), €109/kg (Lechuza Geisha). HIGH-fit WoC Brussels 2026 target but HIGH competition given existing ES depth. ⚠️ Verify El Cerro and El Oasis details, and Lechuza farm/producer identity.

HIGH-fit WoC Brussels 2026 target. ⚠️ Verify Finca Las Nubes relationship before outreach.

Pages updated: wiki/los-pirineos.md (added Paso Paso co-ownership relationship to buyer section)
Summary: Paso Paso is a fundamentally different entity from the other roasters in this prospect list — it is a farmer-owned collective roastery (Istmo Producers Collective GmbH) where five coffee farmers hold equity stakes. Founder/MD: Bram de Hoog (Dutch), former sourcing manager at Ally Coffee. Founded 2024; won SCA Best Branding at WoC Copenhagen 2024. Key finding: Diego Baraona (Los Pirineos, El Salvador) is an equity co-owner of Paso Paso. The company’s statutes mandate exclusive green coffee purchase from its farmer-shareholders for as long as the company exists. This means Paso Paso cannot and will not source El Salvador coffee from Kaiserblick or any other producer. Remove from buyer outreach. The five farmer-shareholders are: Diego Baraona (El Salvador, Los Pirineos), Diego Robelo (Costa Rica, Aquiares), Silvio Sánchez (Nicaragua, Nueva Segovia), Hester & Dawit Syoum (Ethiopia, Bette Buna), Jorge Vásquez (Costa Rica, Finca Cedral Alto). Current ES products from Los Pirineos: Bourbon Elite Washed (€47/kg) and Pacamara Anaerobic Natural (€61/kg), both sold out at time of crawl. Average price paid to farmers in 2024: $4.50/lb. Paso Paso exhibited at WoC Geneva 2025 and will likely attend WoC Brussels 2026 — treat as a competitor for European café shelf space, not a buyer. Sources, index updated. Los Pirineos page updated to add Paso Paso co-ownership entry to buyer relationships section.

Summary: Fjord profiled as HIGH-fit WoC Brussels 2026 target — and a confirmed warm lead. Founded 2016 by Kresten Thøgersen, Morgan Love, and James Maguire; legal entity LMT Hospitality GmbH; roastery at Zur Alten Börse 79, Marzahn (12kg Probat). Critical finding: Fjord’s FAQ explicitly states direct-trade relationships in Brazil, El Salvador, and Colombia — but zero ES coffees appear in their current product range. The gap is real. Current range covers Ethiopia (Okoluu, Shakisso Guji), Guatemala (Santa Elisa, San Antonio, Antigua), Kenya (Mutheru, Gathaiti, Nthimbiri), and Peru (Finca Timbuyacu, Flores De Luya). No EU organic certification requirement. No ACE/COE involvement. Competition presence: 2023 German Brewers Cup champion used their Peruvian Geisha; same coffee shown at WoC Milan 2022. Wholesale via wholesale@fjord-coffee.com, MOQ ~€120–150. Key risk: unknown existing ES supplier could be a direct competitor — verify before outreach. Sources, index updated.

Co-founders Kris Schackman (sourcing, Co-CEO) and Sophie Schackman (cafe/bakery, Co-CEO). Key finding: active El Salvador programme — Finca Majahual Three Process Tasting Set (Orange Bourbon, Washed/Natural/48h Anaerobic; Murray Meza Family, Los Naranjos Valley, 1,500–1,800 masl; processed at Sicafe). Product description confirms “long partnership with Patrick Murray.” NOT a clean-slate opportunity — but complementary to Kaiserblick’s Apaneca-Ilamatepec farms and non-overlapping varieties. Staff member Guy Giraud (Mitte) lists El Salvador as a go-to origin — internal champion potential. Wholesale via Reserve Partners Program (wholesale@fiveelephant.com, Wayne Harvey). No ACE/COE involvement; no EU organic cert requirement. Retail price benchmarks: ~€69/kg for standard single-origins; ~€106/kg for El Salvador tasting set. Sources, index updated.

Key finding: no El Salvador in the current range — zero Salvadoran coffees, no competing supplier to navigate (clean-slate opportunity). Current programme covers Ethiopia, Rwanda, Kenya, Costa Rica, Colombia, Brazil, Peru — all with named producers and direct-trade narratives. Freshness doctrine: roast within 8 days of shipping. No ACE/COE membership detected. No EU organic (BIO) certification requirement. Retail price points: €73–80/kg for mid-specialty washed single-origins; premium experimental lots at €99–108/kg.

Summary: 19grams profiled as HIGH-fit WoC Brussels 2026 target. Founded 2002 as Tres Cabezas; renamed 19grams by Australian partners (19g = double espresso dose). Owners Sascha Spittel and Gerrit Peters. Roastery at Alexanderplatz, 4 Berlin cafés, strong DTC e-commerce. Active El Salvador programme: Los Tres Potros Pacamara (Natural, Apaneca) in both filter and espresso — €80/kg retail. ACE member, participates in international COE juries and purchases winners annually. Direct-trade seasonal sourcing. B2B café and office coffee programmes; wholesale@19grams.coffee. Key flag: potential overlap between 19grams’ “Los Tres Potros” (Apaneca) and OR Coffee’s “Finca Los 3 Potros” (Carlos Mendes, Ataco) — verify before outreach. Sources and index updated.

Key insight — acquisition significance: San Cayetano was one of the six SICAFESA estates (established by Rafael Silva Sr.), winner of AVPA Paris 2017, with an established direct export network to the US and Europe. Kaiserblick inherits both the farm’s international reputation and its existing buyer relationships — a significant commercial head start. Processing continues at SICAFESA’s Beneficio San Pedro mill, maintaining quality continuity during the transition.
Key insight — variety variety mix: The San Cayetano website is the most authoritative source for the current variety composition of this specific farm. The new list (Bourbon Rojo, Caturra Amarillo, Catimor, Ethiosar, Castillo, Pacamara, Heirloom) differs from the prior kaiserblick.dev list (Bourbon r/a, Pacamara r/a, Caturra amarillo, Ethiosar, Heirloom) — Catimor and Castillo are additions; Bourbon amarillo and Pacamara amarillo are not listed on the new site. Updated accordingly.
Concepts confirmed but no new page created:
- Ruta de las Flores (mentioned prominently but already covered in apaneca-ilamatepec.md)
- Silva family (historical context; no independent page warranted)
- Specialty coffee education center vision (noted in finca-san-cayetano.md; too early-stage for a dedicated page)

Key insights:
- BSOC’s Coffee Master El Salvador programme visits Apaneca-Ilamatepec — Kaiserblick’s home region — making it the only confirmed German coffee institution actively routing clients through Kaiserblick’s territory
- Tierra Bendita (Jorge Cruz, Alotepec-Metapán) is both a BioKrop founding farm and a named BSOC partner — an established ES↔Germany connection that Kaiserblick can reference when approaching BSOC
- BSOC-trained roasters and café operators in Germany are exactly Kaiserblick’s export buyer profile; the school is a relationship multiplier, not just a single buyer
Open questions flagged:
- Has BSOC ever visited a farm in Apaneca-Ilamatepec specifically, or only the region broadly?
- Is there a current commercial relationship between BSOC and Tierra Bendita (green coffee supply) or only a referral/partner logo arrangement?
- Coffee Festival Berlin date — when is Leopold Robner’s planned attendance?

- Roast age / CO₂ for espresso directly updates Coffee Freshness with a brewing-method-specific freshness recommendation
- Alkalinity/softening risk for espresso is actionable for coffee shop customers in El Salvador and European hard-water markets — links Brew Water Quality ↔ Espresso Extraction ↔ Green Coffee Trading
- Burr quality and PSD extend Grind with the most detailed treatment of grinder mechanics in the wiki
- Refractometer connects Coffee Refractometer ↔ Roasting Service (profile development QC) ↔ Cupping (Cata) (objective extraction data alongside sensory evaluation)
Contradictions / tensions flagged:
- Light roast philosophy vs. roast development: Rao warns that the trend toward very light roasting frequently causes underdevelopment and low extraction. Kaiserblick must manage DTR carefully to achieve both light color and full cellulose porosity.
- Water softening: Rao’s caution (high-bicarbonate + softening = extraction failure) is consistent with Lingle’s warning but more specific to espresso — now documented in Brew Water Quality
Open questions:
- El Salvador water alkalinity levels — relevant to whether local coffee shops face the softening risk Rao describes
- VST basket availability in El Salvador — Rao’s recommended precision baskets may require import

Contradictions flagged and resolved:
- Caffeine and roast: El Arte del Café states ~10% caffeine loss from roasting; Rao states caffeine is virtually unchanged and increases per gram in darker roasts due to mass loss. Both positions documented in
roasting.mdwith attribution. - Roasting for espresso: Previous wiki reflected common view that espresso requires darker roast; Rao argues no special adjustment needed if development and extraction are correct. Both positions documented in
espresso-extraction.md.
Key connections to existing wiki:
- Three Commandments (ROR + DTR) directly inform Roxanne Fredericksen’s light-roast profile development at Roasting Service — the most technically demanding aspect of specialty light roasting
- Washed-process roasting implications link Coffee Processing ↔ Roast Development: Kaiserblick’s washed El Salvador lots should be charged hot and roasted aggressively to achieve proper inner-bean development
- Water activity measurement for green coffee strengthens Green Coffee Trading export proposition — sharing aw + moisture data with European roasters is a premium traceability differentiator
- Roast defect diagnostics in Roast Defects are actionable for Roasting Service QC: grassy = underdevelopment, cardboard = baked ROR, smoky = low airflow
- Blending framework in Blending directly applies to Kaiserblick’s espresso blend development for local café customers
Open questions flagged:
- What roasting machine does Kaiserblick currently use? Machine type determines optimal charge temperature range and roast time targets.
- Does Roxanne Fredericksen currently use data-logging software (Cropster or equivalent)? Essential for managing ROR in real time per Rao’s framework.
- Caffeine contradiction: Rao’s position (no loss) vs. El Arte del Café (~10% loss) — not yet verified against peer-reviewed research; both cited as is.

Key connections to existing wiki:
- Darker roast → lower AEY finding (Ch. 9) directly connects to Roast Development and Roasting Service: Kaiserblick’s light roasts will achieve higher AEY in filter than the same coffee roasted darker — a quality metric argument for light roasting
- Dense/hard bean → more fines → clogging links Coffee Bed Hydraulics ↔ Coffee Varieties ↔ Pourover Technique: high-altitude Salvadoran Arabicas may need grind adjustment guidance for café customers
- Natural vs. washed AEY difference links Coffee Processing ↔ Extraction: customers should not target identical brew parameters across different process lots
- Water crafting framework in Brew Water Crafting is directly actionable for Green Coffee Trading export customers in Germany, Switzerland, Austria — markets with highly variable tap water
- Bloom physics (CO₂ degassing) connects Pourover Technique ↔ Coffee Freshness: lighter/fresher roasts produce more CO₂ and may need longer blooms
- Percolation vs immersion (advection-and-diffusion) provides scientific basis for why Brewing Methods produce different body and clarity
Contradictions / tensions flagged:
- AEY upper bound: Extraction previously stated 22% as the ceiling; Gagné’s data support 22–23.5% as achievable with quality grinders. Nuanced in Extraction with attribution to both sources.
- Alkalinity primary role: Brew Water Quality previously framed alkalinity mainly as a flow/equipment issue; Gagné establishes it as the primary flavor parameter. Updated with both framings.
Open questions:
- Nordic brewing standard verification (carried from previous ingest) still outstanding
- El Salvador water alkalinity — still not documented; relevant for local café customer guidance
- Roasting machine type at Kaiserblick — still outstanding

Pages updated (3):
coffee-varieties.md— Added Tekisic, Cuscatleco, Catisic, Bernardina in new “El Salvador Breeding Varieties” section; enriched Pacamara (SCA scores, screen sizes), Geisha (ES arrival 1953), and Pacas entries; added Colipse Coffee to sourcesapaneca-ilamatepec.md— Added 70,000 ha / 37 districts / 60–65% national share; 2024/2025 production volume (561,000 bags); top importers (USA, Belgium, Germany); harvest start clarified as October; added Colipse Coffee to sourcesalotepec-metapan.md— Added 18% of 2024 CoE pre-selection and 1.5 ha avg farm size stats; added Colipse Coffee to related pages
Key insights:
- Tekisic dominates ES plantings (~68%) but is the primary rust-vulnerability; Cuscatleco and Catisic are the main bred alternatives — relevant to Kaiserblick’s organic farming and disease management strategy
- Belgium is the #2 importer of Salvadoran coffee (after USA); Germany is #3 — directly validates Kaiserblick’s target European markets
- All Kaiserblick farms qualify as SHG (Strictly High Grown, >1,200 m) — a simple buyer-legible quality grade worth including in export documentation
- Bernardina’s Geisha-relative profile + CoE recognition = potential ultra-premium positioning if a Salvadoran producer can supply it
Note on source quality: Colipse Coffee is a commercial roaster blog citing secondary sources (ICO, WCR, CIAT, UNESCO). Figures are directionally reliable but should be verified against primary data for export documentation.
CLAUDE.md updated: Added Colipse Coffee citation row to source table.

Source: Coutume Café (website) — Paris specialty coffee pioneer; crawl of coutumecafe.com
Pages created: wiki/coutume-cafe.md
Pages updated: wiki/index.md, wiki/sources.md
Key findings: MEDIUM–HIGH fit. Founded 2010 (rue de Babylone flagship opened 2011); one of Paris’s first specialty roasters. Roastery in Romainville (Île-de-France) with Loring roaster. 10+ café locations across Paris. Key signal: dedicated “Café Salvador” origin category at /176-cafe-salvador confirms historical El Salvador sourcing. No ES product active at crawl time; live filter showed: Colombie, Mexique, Guatemala, Ouganda, Indonésie, Éthiopie, Costa Rica — likely seasonal gap between harvests. Three product tiers: Apprécier / Explorer / Déguster. Price range ~€17.90–21.90/250g; premium 1kg at €54.90–68.90. CSR focus: carbon-balanced since 2023, Alliance pour la Préservation des Forêts member. B2B via quote request; professional equipment range. Approach angle: reactivate the Salvador origin category with Kaiserblick micro-lots. Site was mid-migration at crawl time — some data may be incomplete.

Key findings: HIGH-fit distribution partner. NKG-group importer based in Oslo; 400+ roaster clients in 69+ countries; warehouse in Belgium. Actively sources from El Salvador as one of 11 core origins (dedicated origin page). Explicitly does NOT source Guatemala; directs buyers to ES and Honduras instead. Quality threshold: 86+ minimum. Model: hybrid importer-exporter (involved at origin through milling/export oversight). Pre-booking system for forward contracts. Loyalty discount programme across all origins. Large enough to place Kaiserblick micro-lots with multiple European roasters simultaneously.

Key findings: HIGH-fit export channel. European office: Oranienstrasse 58, 10969 Berlin; email europe@cafeimports.com; Director of European Sales Simone König. El Salvador is an active dedicated origin. Critical ES connection: Senior Green-Coffee Buyer Piero Cristiani grew up in El Salvador, family in coffee for 100+ years, visited Finca El Aguila in Los Naranjos (Santa Ana) as a child, was at first CoE El Salvador 2003, first contact with Café Imports was on an ES origin trip. Sales rep Adriana Rehn also lists ES as a favourite origin. Carbon neutral since 2008. Broad portfolio (30+ origins). “I want to sell you green coffee” option on contact form confirms they accept new producer relationships.

El Salvador appears in pre-booking origin dropdown but NOT in the active spot list filter. No ES-specific content in knowledge hub. MyTrabocca B2B portal for roasters.

Key findings: LOW fit for direct export. Founded 2013 in Colombia by journalists Ronald de Hommel and Jeroen Kuiper. European HQ in Netherlands (Michiel Lampers, Friso Spoor). Primary portfolio: Colombia (Huila, Antioquia, Nariño, Tolima) as exporter + importer; also Guatemala, Ethiopia, Honduras, Nicaragua, Ecuador, Brazil. No El Salvador. Notable: DAK Coffee Roasters (Amsterdam) is a confirmed partner roaster of TCQ — confirms that DAK’s supply chain runs through TCQ (and Nordic Approach). Kaiserblick should approach DAK directly rather than through TCQ.

Pages created: wiki/this-side-up.md
Pages updated: wiki/index.md, wiki/sources.md
Key findings: LOW fit. Founded 2013; steward ownership model (transitioning away from private ownership). Radical transparency: all contracts and supply chain documents published publicly. 15 origin countries, all Africa/Asia/Latin America — NO Central America except Colombia and Brazil. Origins: Rwanda, Thailand, Ethiopia, Brazil, Indonesia, Colombia, Uganda, Congo, India, Kenya, Tanzania. Roaster clients are primarily small Dutch specialty roasters. New partnerships require deep values alignment and multi-year relationship building — not an opportunistic buyer. Not a WoC target. Useful as a reference model for values-based communication.

Source: Algrano (website) — Swiss B2B marketplace platform
Pages created: wiki/algrano.md
Pages updated: wiki/index.md, wiki/sources.md
Key findings: HIGH-fit channel (as seller registration, not traditional importer). Swiss platform connecting 195+ producers to roasters in 39 countries. “We don’t trade coffee” — provides infrastructure (contracting, freight, financing) for direct producer-roaster trade. El Salvador is an active supported origin in their Central America harvest calendar (2026): “Modest rebound expected; secure 85+ micro-lots early before competition peaks.” ES shipment image on platform home page. Kaiserblick can register as a seller at algrano.com/en/users/new to reach 400+ European roasters browsing the platform. Producer testimonial: 50–100% price premium over domestic market. Platform fee charged only on successful trades. Synergy: Algrano catches online-sourcing roasters that direct WoC outreach may miss.

Key findings: 2019 BeanScene article reveals Emilio’s brand at the time was Topeca Coffee Roasters (roasting/retail brand, still active in ES and US), predating or running alongside the Odyssey Coffees joint venture. Critical for Kaiserblick equipment sourcing: Emilio/Topeca is the Pinhalense equipment distributor in El Salvador — the in-country contact for the primary processing equipment candidate. Emilio chose Pinhalense in 2000 specifically because they could process micro volumes (100 bags in year one). Also confirmed: operations in Brazil (farm + exports), green coffee to 40+ countries, Chair of SCA Roasters Guild 2017. Production peak figure in this article is 4.7 million 60-kg bags (1980) declining to 500K (~2018/19) — higher than the 3.5M cited elsewhere; flagged as possible period/methodology difference. C-market critique: 80% of world coffee depends on C market; wine de-commodification comparison is a strong framing for Kaiserblick’s specialty narrative.

Key findings: First-person account from Emilio López Díaz confirms several corrections to data from the Odyssey website: (1) He is a 7th-generation farmer, not 6th — his children are the 8th generation; family roots to 1820/1860. (2) La Cumbre grows SL-34 and SL-28 — not SL-38 as one Odyssey webpage stated; SL-38 was a website data error. (3) Natural reserve at Las Isabellas: Emilio cites 75 ha (website says 87 ha). Spring water from reserve serves ~2,000 families in a nearby community. Sucafina confirmed as Odyssey’s trading partner (Australia + US, Oct 2023) — first wiki mention of Sucafina. Growing Together program: community coffee improved from 80 → 83 SCA points; “Growing Together” is a named blend; farmers prepaid for coffee costs; vision program for 249 students + 13 teachers (32% needed glasses, Odyssey sponsored). El Salvador structural picture: production ~350K bags in 2023, down from 3.5M peak; GDP share from 20% → <0.5%; dollarization prevents cost-offset via currency; 500% input/wage increase vs. flat coffee prices. Emilio’s framing: differentiation, quality, and uniqueness are the only viable path — directly validates Kaiserblick’s specialty positioning.

Key findings: Odyssey Coffees is a direct structural peer of Kaiserblick — vertically integrated ES specialty producer and importer. Co-founders Emilio López (CEO) and José Roberto Santamaría merged two multigenerational farming families. Operates 6 farms (550+ ha) all in western El Salvador: Finca Ayutepeque (est. 1840, 153 ha, Chalchuapa), Finca El Manzano (est. 1872, 70 ha, 1,300–1,550 masl), Finca La Cumbre (10 ha, highest microlot portion of El Manzano), Finca Tapantogusto (35 ha, Juayúa, 1,250–1,370 masl), Finca Las Piedras (52 ha, Juayúa), Finca Las Isabellas (245 ha incl. 87 ha natural reserve, Apaneca). Two mills: Beneficio El Manzano (10,000 bag wet / 25,000 bag dry) and Tequendama Mill (5,000 bag wet, serves neighboring producers). Rainforest Alliance certified. “Growing Together” program since April 2021 supporting ~100 small/medium producers. Finca El Manzano / La Cumbre: 3 national barista championships + 1st and 2nd place at 2018 El Salvador COE. Export standard: GrainPro inside 69 kg burlap sacks; 275 bags per 20-ft container (~19,000 kg). US HQ: Portland, Oregon; European logistics via unnamed partner; contact: steph@odysseycoffees.com. Terminology note: Odyssey calls what most sources term “honey” as “pulp natural” and uses “semi-washed” for mechanically demucilaged (fully washed equivalent) — regional terminology variation, not an error.
2026-05-15 — U3 Coffee Interview: Carmen and Rafael Silva (Sicafe)
Source: raw/El Salvador/u3coffee-com-carmen-rafael-silva-crawl.md
Pages created: wiki/u3coffee-com-carmen-rafael-silva-crawl.md
Pages updated: wiki/sicafesa.md (Carmen’s role added to key people; 25+ producer figure updated from 20+; community support section added; La Siberia “most celebrated” characterization added; sources line updated), wiki/new-page-recommendations.md (value chain risk distribution concept added), wiki/sources.md, wiki/index.md
Key findings: Carmen Silva — not previously in the SICAFESA wiki page — is the operational centre of the business. She joined the family (~1989) via marriage to Rafael Sr. and took over daily management, driving CoE competition entries and deep personal client relationships. Rafael Jr. explicitly credits her as the primary engine of Sicafe’s sales. Rafael Jr. (joined 2016) led varietal and processing innovation. La Siberia is described as “one of the most celebrated farms in the world” and holds 6 of SICAFESA’s 9 CoE wins. After storms (~2022), SICAFESA rebuilt a collapsed medical facility for a producer community. Key quote: “The producer has 100% of the risk in the value chain” — added as a concept gap in new-page-recommendations.md.

Key findings: Beneficio San Pedro was officially recognized as El Salvador’s most eco-friendly beneficio in 2017. SICAFESA has participated in the Producer Roaster Forum since its inaugural 2016 El Salvador event, and hosted the Sourcing Trip Experience (STE) in March 2023. PRF’s STE format — 3-day immersive buyer visits to producer farms — is a high-value channel for Kaiserblick to access international roasters without requiring large trade shows. Rafael’s quote on El Salvador quality: “We produce top-quality coffees that can match those grown in any other country in the world.”

Key findings: Screaming Goose Coffee is SICAFESA’s own direct-to-consumer roasting brand in Canada, founded January 2024 by Rafael Gerardo Silva Jr. and partner Alejandra. The brand sells Finca El Angel and La Siberia lots at $18–21 USD/300 g, bypassing traditional export intermediaries entirely — a real-world example of the vertical integration model Kaiserblick is building. El Angel 2024 CoE: both placements (2nd naturals, 7th experimental) were with SL-28. El Angel acquisition date discrepancy: SICAFESA website says December 2022, Screaming Goose says early March 2023 — flagged unresolved. La Siberia CoE product-page text says “five awards” but lists six years — our wiki count of six is correct.

Key findings:
- Roast Rebels sells green coffee from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, Guatemala, Honduras, India, Kenya, Mexico, Peru, Tanzania — El Salvador absent; direct sales opportunity for Kaiserblick in the DACH market
- Operator Ingo is SCA-trained, Roasters Guild of Europe member — ideal contact for a direct-trade or wholesale green coffee relationship
- Measurement instruments referenced: Tonino color meter (€819, Agtron-scale) and Lighttells CM-200 (€1,990, spectral + grind PSD) — concrete tool candidates for Kaiserblick’s roast QC
- Espresso roasting parameters confirmed: DTR 18–25%, weight loss 14–17%; light roast rest 7–14 days, dark roast 3–5 days
- Anaerobic processing: three variants clearly defined; roasting sensitivity articulated (volatile aromatics destroyed by excess heat, murkiness from insufficient heat); Latin America leads in volume

Key intelligence: IKAWA and ROEST are direct competitors — both hot-air convection sample roasters. IKAWA differentiates via humidity sensor, Auto-Detect First Crack, and Target Development Mode (DTR automation); ROEST differentiates via Counterflow mode and 200 g capacity. IKAWA GO is a strong at-origin tool for sample roasting during harvest. The Roastmaster (5–20 kg, with Bühler) extends IKAWA into production scale. Cropster CSAR integrates with IKAWA for sample management.

Key intelligence: ABP is the dominant local specialty coffee actor — both the only SCA-authorized training center in El Salvador and the 2025 Best Roastery awardee. Direct competitor in white-label roasting and coffee shop supply; likely prospect for Kaiserblick’s green coffee. Both founders (Jonathan: Q Grader; Johanna: Q Grader Instructor) are the most credentialed specialty coffee educators in El Salvador.
