Andy isn’t just a person; it’s a philosophy. It’s about seeing the art in the everyday, from the mundane to the extraordinary. Take coffee, for example—a daily ritual for so many, yet often overlooked for the complex, flavorful experience it truly is. With Andy, we aim to reveal coffee's true essence, elevating it from a simple caffeine fix to an appreciation of its rich, nuanced flavors. Our mission? To share this coffee revelation with a wider audience, one cup at a time.

Philosophy
Digging. We source our beans from a select group of specialized traders across Europe, each with their own unique expertise. By cupping a wide range of coffees, we dig deep to uncover those hidden gems that often go unnoticed. Working with different traders allows us to tap into their specialized knowledge and bring out the very best in every batch.
Playing. Our top priority is the pure joy of brewing the perfect cup. By experimenting with both our roasts and brewing methods, we maintain an open-minded approach that allows us to truly explore each bean's potential. We embrace the successes and learn from the missteps, always striving to improve and discover new flavors along the way.
Understanding. We’re committed to constantly learning and educating ourselves, striving to deepen our understanding of coffee with each passing day. Given coffee's complexity and ever-evolving nature, staying ahead of the curve is essential to truly appreciate its full potential. -

How it started
After running their own successful, independent coffee bars for five years, best friends Kjell and Dave decided to take their passion a step further and begin roasting their own coffee at Blikfabriek in Hoboken. Opening their roastery in the midst of the pandemic, their initial focus was on roasting for their own coffee bars and supplying wholesale customers throughout Antwerp. Two years later, they expanded their vision by opening their flagship store at Amerikalei 82 in Antwerp, marking a new chapter in their journey.

OUR COFFEE RANGES
-
shopOur most classic view on coffee.
Staying true to our light roast, we selected
coffees that are less acidic, less fruity.
Think nutty, chocolaty sweet cups. -
shopIn this category we select fruity, elegant,
almost tea like coffees. The term ‘washed’ is used for
the process that happens right after harvesting. -
shopIn our most funky category
we bundle 'honey process’, 'natural process' maceration. These beans will have funky, fullbodied features of ripe fruit,
and are very likely to blow your mind.
