So excited to see that they now have a permanent home in beautiful Sandgate and went to check out their new cafe this weekend.Located in a quieter section of Rainbow Street, their cafe is perfect for the local community and regular visitors. The decor is stylish yet simple (check out the mural on the wall!) and the coffee tastes as good as it always has! I came to visit on day 3 and already it is hard to find a seat. Well done to the team at Wired Owl Coffee Co. Always friendly and amazing coffee - what more could anyone ask for. Love it!

I've never ventured to Brendale before. I'll admit I was sketchy on where exactly Brendale was. But with my trusty GPS in tow finding Cleanskin Coffee Co on Old South Pine Road was a breeze. It's an industrial area and Cleanskin will be on your right hand side. They do some great blends including their "coffee shop" blends of Saint and Sinner. Rhiannon S was right on the money. The front room is stark white and there's almost a "walking into a hospital" feeling too it all even down to the looking glass wall the separates the main retail room from the roasting room. To avoid looking like a deer in headlights like I did when I walked into Cleanskin, take these tips: + It is primarily a roasting house. It is actually pretty neat to sit and watch it all happen. Take a seat on one of the bar tables and drink up. There were a few people sitting and partaking in a bit of a co-working session when I arrived. + Know what you're there for. When I arrived I wasn't entirely sure what to expect and I think it showed as soon as I opened the door. I quickly ordered a cold press ice coffee (delicious - best in Brisbane. No joke) all while trying to take in my surroundings. You can buy a coffee, beans for home and other coffee-making paraphenalia. + If you don't know, ask. I must have looked like a right dingus when the too cool for school bearded barista wandered over to ask if I needed any help. I did and he quickly helped me select a bean that would suit both my Aeropress and stove top espresso thing-a-ma-jig. If you're wondering it was the No. 14 blend. As well as being first-class coffee roasters, these cool cats are keen on educating the masses too and rumour has it they'll be starting education nights soon. They already have barista courses running (one day sessions, max four students) My only disappointment? When buying your beans at Cleanskin they come in a glass bottle. It's super cute and for a packaging fiend like myself, I'll openly admit, it was just one of the many attractions to this brand for me. Plus, each time you bring your bottle back you get $1 off your purchase. But, as I had them ground it for me, I was taking home a brown sealed bag not a glass bottle. First world problems, I know.

WOW. I first heard of Cleanskin Coffee Co - a contract and private label coffee roastery - when I…read moresaw their signature blend of beans, Saint Espresso used at a number of cafes around Brisbane (Bowerbird in Wavell Heights, Park Bench Espresso in Bulimba). I was intrigued. Then I heard about then again, when I found out Hangar13 in Zillmere used their cleanskin beans - buying their beans to custom package as their own brand. I looked them up and discovered they weren't too far away from me on the north side of Brisbane. They are located in Brendale, which is near Strathpine and Carseldine. There is an espresso bar as well as the roastery. It's all very white and with the crazy brewing equipment that looks like chemistry beakers, it really looks like a cross between an Apple Store and a Chemistry lab. Come in and try one of their blends or single origins in either an espresso style (cappuccino, latte, flat white) or in a brewed style (aeropress, pourover). You can also buy the beans and various equipment for home. They are also starting to hold free educational events or Masterclasses on Thursday night at 7pm. I went to the first Masterclass last night - it was about the Pourover (what it is and the technique). This is a must for any coffee fanatic, and will help you make great coffee at home. The brewing techniques are all very easy and accessible to do at home. We all got to taste some of the coffees, and although we could then buy equipment, the guys weren't pushy at all. This is just a group of coffee lovers, wanting to share the wonderful world of coffee with everyone. Not a sales push. Cleanskin Coffee Co also have their own cold press coffee - bottled and sold for either $4 each or 6 for $20. If you are a fan of cold press coffee, you will be pleased at the taste and cost of these. They're much cheaper than most of the other cold press bottles available in Brisbane! I could ramble on for hours about this place, do yourself a favour and check it out. They're open on Saturdays and til 9pm on Thursday night too.
