Certified Speciality Coffee

Coffee blends that are certified are definitely labelled with a unique registration number that can trace back to the origin.

Established in 1996, an association of Technical Committee was formed to establish whether or not a coffee is a “specialty” coffee.
For every country of production of green coffee, the committee establishes the essential characteristics that define its excellence. That includes the best growing areas and their ideal altitude and the best period for shipment. Producers must demonstrate the quality of their crops to be of specialty standard.
Once a year, producers must send the CSC representative samples of their coffee harvest. So its quality can be assessed. Every time it’s transported from one point to another point. Checks are done to verify the quality of every batch.

Every time a member roaster purchases a batch of coffee beans. CSC takes a sample of it when the ship arrives in port. This is sent to the cuppers who compare it with the previously cupped crop sample. If they can confirm that the quality of the two samples is the same, CSC sends the roaster the correct number of labels in proportion to the quantity of coffee purchased. These stringent checks, are the parameters of a CSC certified coffee.

Organic agriculture

The definition “organic farming” indicates a production system that only permits the use of natural material. Occurring naturally in our ecosystem and forbid the use of chemicals. Such as synthetic fertilizers, herbicides and pesticides. The production must maintain the health of the soils and its ecosystem.  In order to safeguard the natural fertility of the soil. The farmers only use organic substances and offer to the consumers products that are not contaminated by chemicals and obtained through environmentally sustainable methods.

What are the main principles of the organic farming? The International Federation of Organic Agriculture (I.F.O.A.M.) established the following:
– transform as many farms as possible in a self-sufficient farming system based on the local resources.
– safeguard the natural fertility of the soil.
– avoid any form of pollution determined by farming techniques.
– produce a sufficient supply of good quality and nutritious food and other products.

In order to obtain the organic certification. Producers have to follow a strict process which includes a minimum two-year conversion period from standard to organic farming system. All the parties involved in the organic supply chain, such as Le Piantagioni del caffè. Are subjected to regular audits carried out by the control bodies which verify the compliance of their products to the standards.
Only if this procedure is strictly followed, it will be possible to show the organic label on the coffee.

Fine Coffee Company is the first coffee beans Singapore supplier who commits to bringing the best quality coffee. All coffee are processed by professionals in Italy. From the plantation till the final retail product. We are also the first coffee beans Singapore company to bring recognition and education to authentic Italiano coffee culture.

 

It is often misunderstood about how long coffee beans can be used. Modern packaging facilities can reduce the oxidization process in coffee.

All coffee bags are hermetically sealed with the most advanced modified atmospheric systems in Italy.  This enables coffee to be kept in its sealed bags for a year with minimal deterioration! Not only that, the pressurized packaging allows the coffee to age to the same consistency. This eliminates the problem of using coffee that has not rested enough, which has a deceivingly thick crema produced from retained carbon dioxide. Taste can also be very flat from incomplete degassing.

Our coffee are all packed with the most advance machines in Italy. Such practices are not done by most small or medium sized roasters due to the exorbitant cost. It was also deemed that at least 40% of the one-way valves used in the UK don’t work, with the number larger in Asia. As such, advocating that coffee must be finished within a short time frame was echoed in the community by the many individual smaller roasters who did not found success with packaging coffee beans for long-term storage.

Users can stock and order our coffee with confidence!

Here are a few illustrated examples.

Example 1:
Cafe A has to commit to buy a minimum of 6kg of coffee from coffee supplier B to achieve their bulk pricing. The supplier advised that the coffee are best used up by two weeks from receiving.
Cafe A could only use up 2kg of coffee in the two weeks. The remaining 4kg began to oxidize and started getting stale. Cafe A has to re-caliberate their grinder more frequent, the consistency of their coffee dropped. Their last bag though unusued was kept for too long and was no longer usable.

Example 2:
Office X ordered 6kg of coffee from supplier B. Due to the lock-down, or temporary closure, they could not operate for a couple of weeks or months. The 6kg of coffee became stale after the months of not operating and was no longer usable.

Answer: In the two examples above, we would not have this problem. Coffee are gassed to keep their condition stagnant and can be easily kept for up to 6 months in their peak condition, they are still usable for up to 18 months! We do not over order our supplies and our fast turnover ensures that the pack that you receive is fresh enough. It is very rare for small roasters to purchase sophisticated equipment and the best packaging to protect their coffee like how it’s done in Italy.

Example 3:
Restaurant Y ordered 6kg of coffee from Supplier B. Cafe A noticed that the consistency in each bag is different. They noticed that the taste, the body and characteristic of flavors are all different. This makes the operator hard to control its quality and consistency as the espresso is use as a base for many of their recipes including latte, affogado, tiramisu, etc. 

Answer: This is because Supplier B roasts in small batches. Even if the coffee may come from the same farm, most farmers around the world are not able to produce consistent crops in every section of their land. Meaning every sack of their coffee are of different quality, making it taste different. It might not matter if we are talking about raw ingredients like pepper and salt, because you do not consume them purely on their own. In coffee, it matters a big deal nd definitely has a pronounce effect. In addition to that, the supplier roasts their coffee in smaller capacity roasters, which may result in different degree of roast in every batch. Our coffee that are CSC certified ensures that the coffee beans and roasting are done consistently. A panel of trained tasters compare that the currently roasted batch is of the same profile as the previous batch. They are tested multiple times when the coffee are in the raw form, they are also tested when they are made into espresso in their end result. This standard is CSC exclusive, not even the SCA endorse such stringent standards.

---

Example 4:
User X’s grinder suddenly stopped working after grinding a pack of beans from Supplier B. Upon checking, he found a piece of stone or metal among the coffee beans. The gear and motor broke, the burrs have damaged.

Answer: Foreign objects among coffee is very common. Often, depulped coffee is laid around the floor and dried for a number of days. The area used for drying is often unsheltered. It won’t be difficult for foreign objects to land up among the coffee beans. We don’t have this problem as our suppliers have machines that destone hard objects hidden among the beans. This is done not once but at least twice with differerent methods to reduce the chance of missing out any foreign objects.

---

Example 5:
Cafe Z strives to serve authentic and high quality coffee. The cafe enjoys a large number of European expatriates in the vicinity. However, the expatriates feedback that the espresso served don’t taste anything similar to what they have at home, not authentic.

Answer: This is a common feedback received from expatriates at our experimental room. Our coffee are roasted in Italy, by master roasters who spent decades perfecting their skill. If they want to taste the taste of coffee from home, of course you need to get someone from home roasting their coffee.

As long as your coffee machine has a grinder, or you have a coffee grinder, you can use our coffee beans. We have many blends with amazingly different characteristics, suitable for all sorts of environment.

Whether you are doing espresso, latte, filtered coffee, pour over, french press, Turkish coffee, cold brew, or even traditional asian kopi, there should be a suitable blend. We will strongly recommend establishments to give us a try and notice the difference.

You may notice that we don’t offer coffee powder much. That’s because it’s impossible for coffee in powdered form to remain good as the bean has been broken up and exposed from inside out. Oxidation happens at an alarming rate that it will make it impossible for the flavours to retain. In fact, coffee in powdered form won’t even stay good for more than 20 minutes after exposure to air. Bottomline advise, get any coffee grinder is better than no grinder.
