Grinders of different shapes
Hand grinders, wall-mounted grinders and electric coffee grinders offer different ways of looking at the same purpose. Compare how they are operated and ask how a grinder was used. With a guided tour, small technical differences can stand out better than at a quick glance.
From roasting to storing
Coffee roasters, tins and packaging broaden the collection. They draw attention to stages other than grinding alone. Choose an object whose function you want to understand and have someone explain how it fits in with the rest of the collection.
Tea has its own place
Tea cosies and crockery add another side of table culture. Look at differences in shape and decoration, without counting everything as coffee equipment. Plan enough time for the guided tour and confirm the start time, as differing opening hours are in circulation.
Before you go
Go to Industrieweg 12 in Sint Philipsland. For Friday and Saturday, both 10:00 and 11:00 are given as the opening time; have this confirmed.
