Silverwoods Coffee

About us

We started operations in May 2020 in Kawaguchi City, Saitama Prefecture, with the aim of pursuing the taste of coffee and delivering delicious coffee to our customers. The lack of any one of raw bean quality, roasting and drip techniques will not lead to a truly delicious coffee. At our shop, we order raw beans carefully selected from premium and specialty grades, and roast each coffee bean from light roasting to deep roasting with the GIESEN 6 kg roasting machine installed in the shop. The cafe also serves coffee by nel drip. Nel drip is a method that uses a flannel filter instead of paper, but it can extract the full flavor of coffee beans.

Roasted coffee beans

Roasting coffee beans is the same as regular cooking in that it is heated to bring out the deliciousness. Rice cooked in large quantities at once in a kamado and stir-fried foods from Chinese restaurants are delicious because they depend on the strong heat and the heat capacity of the cooking utensils. Even for coffee beans, the heating power, heat capacity, and raw bean input amount of the roasting machine have a great influence on the taste. We have introduced a 6 kg roasting machine from GIESEN in the Netherlands. Thanks to the size and heat capacity of the roasting machine, stable roasting can be performed. In addition, GIESEN's roasting machine has special performance (control of drum rotation speed and exhaust pressure, etc.), which enables a more active approach toward the desired taste. Therefore, it is the roasting machine that is attracting the most attention in the current fashion of specialty coffee.

Hand pick and nel drip

Human senses become greatly dull due to the inclusion of miscellaneous tastes and noise. In the case of coffee, if even a small amount of negative factors such as astringency and harshness are added, the original taste will be drowned out. In order to make coffee delicious, it is important not to produce more unpleasant taste than to extract the taste strongly. By properly roasting and carefully removing the defective beans with a hand pick, you can finally stand on the starting line of delicious coffee. Compared to paper drip, nel drip extracts coffee taste as well as miscellaneous taste, so you need to pay close attention to the coffee beans you use. The coffee beans sold in our shop are roasted and hand picked so that they can withstand use in nel drip.
