‘Let's talk good coffee’ Smart, yellow-hued coffee magazine Solo takes a slightly bolder approach to its subject than the other magazines covering our seemingly endless passion for coffee. Yes, there are plenty of stories here about coffee, the people who make and sell it, and the people that enjoy drinking it. But you’ll also find opinion and thoughts about the state of the coffee industry: this new issue opens with a piece asking whether we’ve reached peak coffee. Also in this 15th issue: meet Thorsten Keller, the man behind Hamburg’s Coffee Table Mags. Initially a service for local coffee shops to add magazines to their space, Keller now has his own magazine shop in the city. The Hamburg connection continues later in the pages, as we meet the team behind the city’s annual IndieCon magazine festival. Top fact: ‘Solo’ is the word people in Spain use to order an espresso ‘usually in a small cup and with more water than a ristretto’. solomagazine.coffee
