She moved to Norway with her husband in 2013. That is when she discovered her love for coffee and her passion for roasting started blossoming. Aya started as a barista at a café in Oslo in 2014, began roasting in 2018, and became the head roaster in 2019. She remained in that role until 2023 when her son was born. Motherhood has a certain way about empowering women to follow their dreams. Aya started h\u003cimg\u003eer own roastery, and after months of planning, she officially launched Hibi Kaffe in November 2024.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eHibi means daily in Japanese—better coffee for your everyday moments. Basically. Aya says: \"Starting this journey has been amazing, and I’m so excited to share it with others!\" Equally amazing is the way that our paths crossed and that was a pure coincidence triggered by our common interest in sourdough baking, and Aya and Leif's \u003ca href=\"hevet.no\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ehevet.no\u003c\/a\u003e collection of proofing baskets.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis complex \u003cstrong\u003ewashed Ethiopian\u003c\/strong\u003e comes from the region of Lalesa, one of the finest coffee-producing areas in Gedeb, known for its dense, layered semi-forest vegetation.

He built his wet mill in 2018, with the hope of purchasing red cherries exclusively from the nearby farmers of Lalesa. He attributes his success to the relationships he has cultivated within the community \u0026amp; farmers surrounding his washing station.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eharvest:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe cherries are collected manually and hand sorted later. They are placed directly in the hopper that is connected to the pulping machine (a traditional Agaarde Disc Pulper). The coffee flows from the hopper down to the pulper, and the pulper removes the skin and pulp. The machine is designed to conduct grading of high and low quality (1st and 2nd), based on density.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe coffee is then fermented under water in tanks for an average of 72 hours, but any time frame between 48 - 100 hours is within the norm. The coffee is graded again in channels, so that the cherries of lower quality (with a lower density) will float. They are removed, leaving the denser, higher quality beans to be separated as higher-grade lots.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThe parchment is soaked in clean water and then dried on raised beds for approximately 8 - 20 days. The coffee is dried in layers of 2-8 cm, depending on the climate, the type of tables, and the stage of drying.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eorigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Gedeb - Lalesa\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eprocessing:\u003c\/strong\u003e washed\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003evarietal:\u003c\/strong\u003e heirloom\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ealtitude:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2150 masl\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"hibi kaffe","offers":[{"title":"220 g","offer_id":48657124032753,"sku":null,"price":205.0,"currency_code":"NOK","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0655\/5746\/3281\/files\/Kello_bag.webp?v=1787934304","url":"https:\/\/webloom.no\/products\/kelloo-lalesa-ethiopia-washed","provider":"Bloom Concept Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
