In March 2017 Weta Coffee launched a pop-up espresso bar at the legendary Auckland Coffee Festival. This mini form of our One Tree Hill home has since served Adele concert goers and Warriors fans at Mt Smart Stadium, and conference attendees at various venues.

Our full service espresso bar is fully transportable to your indoor or covered outdoor venue and staffed with our team of skilful and friendly baristas!

Available on a day charge either including a maximum number of coffees or as a day charge plus coffees, this is a definite value-add to your event.

In September we had a visit from the Two Cowboys who took a look behind the scenes at Weta Coffee, and at what makes our coffee so special....  Come take the tour with us...

Two Cowboys Showcase Weta Coffee

Whether you’re using a plunger, stovetop or espresso machine, get your grind as fresh as possible.  That means buying your beans freshly roasted and best used within two to three weeks of roast date.    Buying direct from a roaster will assure freshness – check for roast date displayed on the packaging.    At Weta Coffee we release our beans on day five after roasting when the flavour and aroma have developed to deliver the perfect cup. 

Keep your precious beans airtight.  Our beans are packaged with a one-way valve, but after opening keep in an airtight container away from heat, moisture and too much direct light – and do not store in the fridge.

Blend or single origin?  A signature blend is a union of contrasting and complimentary flavours to produce a well-rounded masterpiece coffee.  A single origin is from one specific area delivering a unique flavour profile.   It could be said the purist lets the bean stand on its own where the blend lover searches for synergy in a cup.  We say, enjoy the virtues of both!

The roast level is going to give varying taste profiles – light or ‘cinnamon’ roast will be more acidic with notes of wet grass, toasted grain and bright character.  Medium or ‘full city’ roast gives a good balance of sweetness, body and acidity.  Darker roasts will give a bittersweet flavour with heavier body.  Our award-winning Weta Bush Blend is roasted to full city while single origins are often roasted moderately lighter to emphasise the characteristics of that stand-alone bean.

If your coffee equipment setup can extend to a grinder you will never look back.  Nothing beats grinding right before you brew.  If you don’t have a grinder, purchasing ground coffee to use within two to three weeks of roast date is next best.

Lastly, enjoy this adventure of trying new blends and origins, buying fresh and brewing like a master!

More sensational news from the Weta chronicles! Mike Allan a local Onehunga home brewer, recently won the New Zealand/Australia hub of the SJPORR brewing competition with his Weta Coffee Stout! He now goes through to the finals which will be judged in the USA in early 2016. Mike used our house Weta Bush Blend to condition the stout before bottling. The beer is currently being rebrewed for the competition and we are hoping to get a few bottles to sample with any interested beer and coffee fans. Watch this space and our Facebook updates....

Our home is a little hub on the outskirts of One Tree Hill, Auckland where we proudly house our roastery and espresso bar, and where the locals and patrons of our place are some of the friendliest and happiest people we have met.  We have been at home here now for 15 months and during that time have grown with a community that really has our back.  We aspired to create a place that not only served damn good coffee but welcomed everyone with a smile and friendly conversation.   We are delighted to have created just that, so thank you each and every one of you who have supported us since our beginning – it has been an awesome ride!

In our newest and most exciting update, last week we attended the Huhtamaki 2015 New Zealand Coffee Awards and were ecstatic to be awarded a Silver Medal for our Weta Bush Blend in the Best Flat White Category!  The awards, in their 12^th year, received nearly 300 entries from around the country. The best flat white category is hotly contested and received the most entries of all categories.

Looking ahead to the remainder of 2015 we have some exciting plans including the release of our Weta Coffee Cold Brew for summer chilling and helping you put together some Weta Coffee drinking gifts for your Christmas giving.
