Three Reddit contributions give Koppi Roasters a mixed but favorable picture. One brewer struggled to get good flavor from two Ethiopian coffees. Another detailed a Finca El Paraiso they considered among their best recent coffees, and a third described a Burundi coffee as awesome despite some under-extraction.

Koppi release at Mikkeller Bar

Thomas Schøn

Watch on YouTube

This video covers Koppi Roasters; it is general roaster coverage.

Cherrybook summary of the video

In this video filmed at Mikkeller Bar, the founders of Koppi Roasters discuss their collaboration with Mikkeller to release Corpse, described as the world's first coffee IPA. They explain how they selected an Ethiopian coffee from Guji whose citrus and floral profile pairs naturally with the hop characteristics of the beer.

Inside this video

From Thomas Schøn:

“We were going to be a beer maker's dinner range by Mikel and Gastro in Helsingborg, and Mikel came in during the day with a couple of friends.”
“Why no one is making light coffee beer, because everyone's making stouts or porters, but we thought, why not make a super awesome IPA flavored with coffee?”
“Coffee doesn't have to be dark and smoky and burnt-like; it can also be fruity and citrusy and flowers, just like hops.”

Across the coverage of Koppi Roasters

Reviewers and outside coverage present Koppi as a technically meticulous roaster with a creative approach to flavor pairings. Third-party features highlight their careful management of roasting mechanics like airflow, as well as innovative collaborations such as brewing a coffee IPA with Mikkeller using light, fruit-forward Ethiopian beans. Outside observers emphasize their philosophy that specialty coffee should highlight bright citrus and floral notes rather than traditional dark, smoky characteristics.
