Chicco D'oro

A special blend from regions where the Max Havelaar Foundation provides subsidies to coffee farmers. Fair trade conditions for third-world producers are the stated goal of this collaboration between Chicco d'Oro and Max Havelaar. The foundation guarantees producers a minimum price necessary for their livelihood. The product is purchased directly from the producer, eliminating intermediaries. Therefore, those who drink Max Havelaar coffee can be assured that the cultivation is fairly compensated. In the border area with Italy, near Chiasso, specifically in Balerna, coffee has been roasted at Chicco d'Oro since 1949. The products are influenced by Italian traditions while still keeping the Swiss taste in mind. Selected beans from mid-elevation slopes in Central America are blended by experienced roasters in varying nuances depending on the harvest, ensuring that the final product is one that has established Chicco d'Oro's reputation in Switzerland.

Bean type

Degree of roasting

The so-called roasting degree is one of the most important factors when roasting coffee. It measures the different roasting results that can be obtained when roasting coffee. You can influence the degree of roasting by varying the temperature and roasting time. The degree of roasting has a significant influence on the aroma, taste and intended use of the coffee.

By the way, you can measure the degree of roasting either with a colorimeter or by tasting. Roasters usually want to enhance the coffee's inherent flavors and achieve an appropriate degree of roast. Typically, light roasted coffee is more acidic, while dark roasted coffee is more bitter. Fruity flavors are also more common in light roasts, while smoky flavors and roasted aromas are more common in heavily roasted coffee.

Less strongly roasted coffee also tastes fruitier due to the high proportion of the organic compound 5-hydroxymethylfurfural. If coffee beans are roasted for longer, these fruity aromas decompose. At the same time, the number of sulphur compounds increases, resulting in smoky and roasted aromas.

As a rule of thumb, you can assume that a light roast brings out the character of the green coffee better. By the way, it is easier to distinguish light roasted beans from each other than dark ones.
