Koffiebranderij Maalwerk

Made with passion and full of taste

Maalwerk is the independent Delfzijl traditional coffee-roasting house and home of high-quality coffee. Everything here is done by hand: from picking, selecting and roasting beans to packaging them. As you may already have guessed, you will not find any mass-production and large stocks, but instead freshly roasted coffee that smells and tastes as it should. 

Pure trade

Owner Erik Poelstra has been roasting his coffees for over 22 years. He previously worked for a large coffee-roasting house for over twenty years. Because of their focus on constant expansion at the cost of the trade and taste of coffee, in 2018 Erik decided to take the leap and start his own small-scale company Maalwerk. He has returned to focusing attention on high-quality coffee with a full taste. Today, he supplies hotels, restaurants and shops in the region and sells via the company’s website.

Delfzijl: this is why

Erik thinks of Delfzijl as a wonderful place to live quietly, with all shops and facilities required close by. Big plusses are the port and the new beach. He loves long walks across the dyke past the Dollard. "I think the Biessumerbos woodland is the most special place in Delfzijl. I go there to clear my head and enjoy the quiet." 

Come and taste

Feel free to come and taste the coffee for yourself. Maalwerk coffee is served at the Brasserie Ziel, Restaurant Kakenburg in Delfzijl and other locations. The Cigo Delfzijl sells a selection for home use, and naturally you can also go to Maalwerk itself to enjoy some of the liquid brown gold.
