In 2005, we kick started our caffeinated journey in the buzzing streets of Italy, we soon began exploring different cities and soaking in the diverse coffee communities across Europe.

After nearly a decade of navigating the electronic-mechanical industry's intricacies, complete with industrial lines and robotic adventures, we were ready for a change.

Fast forward to 2012, we made our permanent mark Down Under in the land of kangaroos and stunning landscapes, where we had previously spent a year exploring our new home in 2009-2010.

Embracing the Aussie spirit, Marco dove headfirst into the coffee scene, sponsored as a head coffee technician and beginning to create a name for himself in the Melbourne coffee scene.

In 2019, Marco took the plunge and set up his first coffee haven right from the comfort of an old ramshackle shed. It was like brewing magic in a rustic wizard's den – who needs fancy when you've got character?

Amidst the delightful chaos of beans, brews and fixing machines, 2019 also brought Ragu, the hyperactive kelpie cross, prancing into our lives.

Fast forward to 2021, we upgraded from shed chic to warehouse wonder in Coburg North, because, let's be honest, even coffee kingdoms need a bit of order.

And the team grew by one with the addition of Piglet, the deaf white kelpie. Our furry pals brought more excitement than a cat chasing a laser pointer.

Then, 2023 came along – the year Lewis, the drumming dynamo, joined our ranks. With a personality as infectious as a coffee shop's aroma and skills that could make beans dance, Lewis became the heartbeat of our coffee symphony.
