Effy Nottingham

Finca Milan // Nitrogen Washed Caturra ⚡️

Pulling some delicious shots of this uniquely processed Colombian coffee at the shop currently. The coffee is placed in a bioreactor and inoculated with cultures and fruit must, then injected with nitrogen to facilitate the metabolic process.

In the cup we’re tasting candied watermelon, hubba bubba & chocolate milk. A truly wild coffee to be running on espresso, even for us 🍬

⚡️ Matcha Basque ⚡️

Our basque cheesecake has quickly become a staple of our bakery selection. Baked by us, available daily ✨

WE ARE FIVE ⚡️

Pretty big milestone to hit as a business & we couldn’t be happier with how things are going and the continued support we get from everyone who comes through our door! Continuing to steer from the norm in how we approach our coffee service seemed like a risk when we first started but it seems like we’ve found our crowd and can’t wait to keep you all engaged for the next 5 ✨

We’ll be running a delicious banana/raspberry forward yellow Colombia from Oscar Hernandez on espresso for the weekend to celebrate

*Pictured is our Ube basque cheesecake which definitely can masquerade as a slice of birthday cake for the occasion

We’re coming to the last of Kamala loa from the folks over at Sunny coffee in Indonesia 🇮🇩

This anaerobic natural typica has been a treat to brew & truly does showcase our style of high extraction low dosage espresso so well

In the cup we’re getting blackberry & overripe cherries with a really big lactic/custard like mouthfeel ✨

Two exceptional coffees from made their appearance in the shop this week ✨

We’re going to be brewing the coffees from Los Nogales in store this week, expect them to taste undeniably banana like with subtle varietal differences that make these two coffees a great option to share and contrast with each other ✨

Dulce Misterio ⚡️ Colombia
A super sweet example of a well processed washed gesha, tasting all kinds of sweet with big jasmine candy & orange blossom 🌸

Back to usual service after the installation of our long awaited bar ✨

When guests arrive we feel like the layout will confuse and intrigue many of our customers as there isn’t many cafes who have two facing different directions. Promoting interaction & conversation and truly showing of what we take care in the most

Using polished stainless steel to create our bar, we hope to paint Effy with the different light our stained glass windows bring to this historic building 🌈

⚡️NOTICE ⚡️

The cafe will be closed this Wednesday (7th) to install our long awaited bar (espresso module)

This has been something that all of us here at Effy have been very excited for since we opened & can’t wait to show you you all our vision 🧊

We aim to return to normal service on Thursday (8th) and cannot wait to unveil a truly one of a kind design for a modern espresso bar!

Diego Bermudez 🍒 Colombia

Almost a household name at Effy over the years returns onto espresso today. This thermal shock Castillo reminds us of how far processing has come but also how much more refined and intricate the processing at El Paraiso has gotten from when we first tried these coffees years ago

In the cup we’re getting a sour cherry sweetness with a creamy body/mouthfeel with a finish that reminds us of the outside coating of m&m’s ✨

Pulling some deliciously sweet shots of this villa sarchi from this morning 🇨🇷

As we push towards the weekend we welcome a new roster of coffees from mates .coffee & new to the shop .possession ⚡️

This morning we’re pulling shots of this delicious Colombian Castillo from the La Rivera Farm, anaerobically fermented in oak barrels this is giving a stupidly syrupy espresso reminding us of single malt whiskey, vanilla pod & white sugar

We’re brewing up the final doses of our current rotation of coffees this weekend ✨

Today we’ll be running the last of “coco bongo” from producer Rodrigo Sanchez. This tropical nectar washed Caturra bourbon is a classic “what on earth is in my flat white” kind of coffee, full of rose petals, lychee syrup and dedicated coconut 🥥

It’s been a whirlwind couple of weeks since relocating our store & bakery operations to our new home on Heathcoat street and we just wanted to give a huge thanks to everyone, regulars and newcomers who have visited us so far ✨

With this move comes room to breath as a business and continue growing organically with staff, quality and customer service in mind

We’re open on 20A Heathcoat street weekdays 8am - 5pm & weekends 9am - 5pm, see you soon x

Oli will also be about for any questions regarding competition from his experience within the events, here to help any Nottingham baristas with aspirations for competition ✨

El Paraiso ⚡️Decafe

Keeping our low caffeine offering to the same standards as we would with our espresso service has been a big motivation in our sourcing

This is truly reflected in our current Decafe offering, the trademark thermal shock process from El Paraiso but on a Decafe is yielding wild flavours like no Decafe we’ve tried before. Amoretto, Stewed Cherries and toasted almonds ✨

White Lotus ✨

This super clean washed Java from Nestor lasso & Joan Vergara is unlike any of the coffees we’ve had from these two before, swinging towards a much more refined & delicate cup

In the cup we’re getting lychee concentrate, Lime Keffir & White sugar. We’ll be brewing this on espresso for a super limited time so don’t miss out ⚡️

As we transition to our new location in the autumn we plan on expanding our baked goods further with the building of our downstairs bakery ✨

Until then enjoy a cinnamon bun & a brew of this super tropical Costa Rican from pals .coffee in our original Houndsgate store

A rather intriguing lineup of some of the most well processed “infused” coffees we’ve tried so far, from mates .coffee

Coffees like this we are slightly cautious about talking about, as there tends to be a lot of stigma around them.

How we look at these coffees is to not compare them to any of the more traditional processed coffees in any way and be very clear upon brewing them of this.

Instead we use these to showcase a world of coffee to our customers that they perhaps didn’t know existed, sparking new conversations and inviting people who perhaps thought “coffee is just coffee” to explore something they previously wouldn’t have and potentially develop an interest into the deeper coffee world we find ourselves in!

We have Cinnamon, Grape, Strawberry infused lots on our retail shelf & our espresso/filter menu for you to try over the coming weeks ✨

To counter the cooler weather coming back, we’ve dropped this super sweet/ripe pineapple/thick bodied anaerobic honey processed Costa Rican from mates .coffee in Paris 🇫🇷

Come taste ✨

The last of the summer heat joined by the last of a fan favourite “milky cake” from & .bermudeztapia on espresso

We’re using the air con to its full ability this weekend, so if you’d like to take respite you know where we are☀️✨
