Good Karma Coffee has roasted fresh daily in Karlsruhe since 2013, sorting its beans into Bright, Medium, and Dark profiles. Its Solum Cascara lemonade, made from dried coffee-cherry skin, turns a usual waste product into a drink.

Good Karma Coffee has roasted fresh daily out of Karlsruhe since 2013, organizing its catalogue around three roast categories — Bright, Medium, and Dark — that map directly onto flavor profiles the company describes as fruity, fruity-chocolate, and chocolate-spicy, a simpler system than the usual filter-versus-espresso split. The roastery itself, on Elsa-Brändströmstraße, opens to the public only on Fridays from 10am to 6pm and Saturdays from 10am to 1pm, when customers can drink a coffee on-site or pick up an online order paid for in advance. Beyond the core roasts, the company has built out a 'Candyshop' line of unusually sweet, intense single-origin lots treated as their own category rather than folded into the regular range. It has also pushed into byproducts: a Solum Cascara lemonade, made from the dried skin of the coffee cherry — the part of the plant most roasters discard — turns a waste stream into a separate soft drink. A partnership with kAnola, a Karlsruhe granola maker, adds a chocolate-coffee granola built with cocoa and raw cane sugar from Colombia. The shop also stocks brewing hardware, including Comandante hand grinders, positioning Good Karma as much an equipment retailer for home brewers as a roaster in its own right.

iaro opened in 2020 as a small window café in Karlsruhe, founded by Armin Zandieh and Nabila, before building its own roastery in 2022. Its signature Muriqui espresso now anchors two locations plus barista workshops.

iaro started in 2020 as a small window café in Karlsruhe, opened by co-founders Armin Zandieh and Nabila, and didn't begin roasting its own coffee until 2022, when the company built out its in-house roastery. That two-year gap between opening the counter and controlling the roast shows in how the menu is structured now: Muriqui, the modern signature espresso, sits alongside Oso as an easier entry point and Cotorra as the decaf option, each named rather than numbered, and each also sold as Nespresso-compatible capsules for home use. The original café, now called iaro west, is on Sophienstraße; a second location, iaro ost, opened later on Rintheimerstraße, both keeping the same Monday-to-Friday 8am-5pm, weekend 9am-5pm hours. An in-house bakery supplies both sites, baking pastries on-site rather than bringing them in from a separate supplier. Beyond the counter, iaro runs paid instruction — a €129 barista workshop, an €89 latte art class, and a €29 online Barista Basics course — extending the roastery's self-described focus on controlling 'the entire process, from the coffee plant to your cup' into teaching customers to replicate parts of that process themselves.
