Food always goes down well at Masteroast and the surrounding businesses. 

We'd like to say a big thank you to all the surrounding businesses that dropped by again this year for a good chat and great coffee with a side order of cake, we've collectively raised £400 for Macmillan Cancer Support. A charity I'm sure that has had an effect on your life or someone you know.

Coffee Cup - An innovative cycle

15/8/2018

Climate change, a world that is threatening the bubble that we live inside and up until recently one that has been gently encouraging us to begin changing our ways, to do things like recycle, up-cycle, down-cycle and side-cycle everything into as many things as you can imagine. That was until China recently stopped taking out the trash but that's another story. This story is actually a few years old but it can take a long time for things to catch on, whether that be due to cost or the factories reach and profitability. We can safely say that cups made of your coffee grounds are still rather niche.  

A company called Kaffee Form in Germany is making Coffee cups from the waste produced by your coffee. There are many other alternatives out there that use natural fibres to create multi-use cups but I'm particularly impressed with one that uses the same waste that is generated by the process to which it will be used. The idea came from Julian Lechner who while studying in Italy had thought about the potential, he didn't let the thought of it pass by and 3 years later he began experimenting with different materials and started talks with material experts and scientists and this eventually paid off. A new renewable material was formed, he called it Kaffeeform. 

The coffee grounds are collected in Berlin and are then dried. The first item to be created naturally was the small espresso cup, this was in 2015, they soon added the larger cappuccino cup in 2016. They have since moved on to the takeaway cup, a recent headline issue on waste and they hope that this becomes a solution to the current difficult to recycle coffee cup used globally. The cup has a resemblance to a dark marblewood and it smells like coffee. they are light and surprisingly tough enough to take on the dishwasher, as a bonus, they are not single use and can be used many times.

Coffee Morning 2017
Our 2nd ever Macmillan Coffee Morning, this year held in the Masteroast Training Room. Trained members of staff were on hand to make cappuccinos, lattes, espressos and Americanos to order which proved incredibly popular. Once again the Masteroast team of bakers didn’t disappoint and there was a wealth of delicious homemade cakes and savoury treats on offer.
We are extremely grateful to everyone that came and supported us – Masteroast staff and local businesses including Toolfix, Buckles Solicitors, Lindum, Plantation Coffee, Marlow Gardner & Cooke, Carters Garage – and thanks to their generosity we were able to raise £417.20, a really fantastic amount.

Thank you!

Peterborough Cathedral Abseil 2016

5/7/2016

You wouldn't think it but Masteroast is the kind of organisation that harbors a large workforce of incredibly brave and bold  daredevils, the kind of folk that jump out of planes and climb mountains and occasionally walk along the bottom of oceans, unfortunately they feel that a 150ft Abseil down a 900-year-old cathedral is beneath them and for a few that would be true, even if it was only for a few minutes!  

So Masteroast has sent a trio of their more feeble devils, two that are terrified of heights and one that hates spiders! You'd think that spiders wouldn't be a problem but in a structure as mature as this I'm sure the ascent will prove challenging! 
If you'd like to sponsor any of the abseilers, please follow the links below to the person you'd like to sponsor. All the money goes to the Cathedral 900 project and to maintain this wonderful icon of our city! We warmly welcome you to join us on the day and thank you for any donations!
