What Standart is

A magazine you keep, a coffee you brew, a community you join

The Community

A global readership you can reach from your phone. Recommendations, conversation, and the occasional good argument about co-fermented coffee.

The Coffee

Every issue of Standart arrives with a freshly roasted specialty coffee from a world-class roaster, so you can read about coffee with a cup of it in your hand. No other magazine does this.

The magazine

A quarterly print magazine about coffee, and the people and places around it. Long-form writing, original photography, considered design—made to be kept on a shelf, not scrolled past.

Latest Issue

Standart 43

Issue 43 is given over to heat, in all its scorching glory — and arrives in two cover variants.

In pole position is Formula One driver and longtime friend of Standart, Valtteri Bottas, who we reached at home in Monaco during a break between races. It turns out that the men piloting earthbound rockets around a circuit, judging each corner by the millisecond, still find a quiet moment to consider the merits of a flat white.

We stay with speed in Melbourne, where Kirk Pearson of Project Zero walks us through the laws of physics he's willing to bend to put a latte in your hands in fifteen seconds flat. The secret, it turns out, is pre-batched espresso.

The heat carries through the issue. Our city profile takes us to a sun-bleached Los Angeles; over a bowl of matcha, writer Tanya Nanetti makes the case for green as the new black. And when it all gets to be too much, we retreat to the alpine town of Hakuba for a short Japanese holiday, before tracing the coffee culture of Malawi in our origin profile.

As ever, every subscriber copy arrives with a coffee to match the reading: a fully washed Gachami AA, grown in Kirinyaga, Kenya, and roasted by The Barn in Berlin.

Gachami AA by The Barn

With its bright character, Gachami has the complex clarity we love in Kenyan coffee. Notes of blackcurrant, plum, and mandarin are juicy and vibrant. Caramel, syrupy sweetness, and black tea add depth as it cools.

Featured Coffee & Brewing Tips

V60 Drip

250 g 94 °C water. Grind medium – adjust to reach desired time.

Steps

0:00 → wet all grounds evenly with 30–40 g, let it bloom. 0:30 → pour up to 100 g in slow clockwise circles, then pause until the water has almost fallen to the coffee bed. Continue in 50 g pours, waiting each time, up to 250 g. Total time around 2:30. Swirl or stir once it stops dripping.

Standart just simply came to change my perspective about coffee. This is more than a magazine is also a community where coffee lovers, farmers and artist converge.

After getting burned out working in coffee, Standart has helped reinvigorate my love for speciality.

Speciality coffee Bible. Period.

It shines light from the first page to the last one. I love it; it's my favourite magazine.

The first 2 articles in this issue already made it very clear again what an outstanding and unusual coffee publication the Standart is.
