Another Coffee Stories is the innovative Milan-based publishing house with the goal of bringing our full senses back to the center of the literary experience.

The synaesthetic reading

Synesthesia
Mutual contamination between the senses. It occurs when stimulations from one sense induce experiences, automatic and involuntary, in a second sense.
But how is this possible?
  • As it is easy to guess, sight is awakened by the words of the incredible authors, the same ones who are able to recreate an entire world in our minds, able to make us live for a moment outside our own routine, with only the stimulus of creativity;
  • Instead, the sense of touch is activated by the textured covers, designed to fully represent the author and his work;
  • And now we at Caffè Ernani come into the picture: accompanying the reader’s taste buds as they read, through our expertly selected and roasted coffees, paired with the works of Another Coffee Stories…for example, the robustness of a coffee might remind one of a gory and ruthless plot.
  • This also pervades the sense of smell! In fact, we recommend not pairing the books with an espresso, but more with a filter coffee, which is long, intense in aroma and delicate in flavor, to be kept close by for longer to let it accompany you while reading.
The publishing house with its books represents a unique combination of the charm of words and the beauty of the synaesthetic approach, which will transform the world of literature into a tangible reality.
If I have intrigued you, if you love books, and if you are always looking for something new–this article is for you!

It’s Still Night – Mirna Cara

“It is impossible to avoid what has to happen, I tell you from experience. React to something that has already happened, and you make mistakes twice. The more you try to change things, the more mistakes pile up. Until they become mountains.”

Mirna attends a dinner with old schoolmates, the kind organized through Facebook. In the restaurant hall there is one very long table set just for them.

He soon realizes that something does not add up; he does not remember names and faces and stories of any of the people present. Everyone chats in a friendly manner, recalling anecdotes that tell her nothing.

But then the waiter serves the appetizers, ignoring her. To her he instead delivers shards of earthenware, what looks like the remains of a vase. What should he do with it? Is this a joke? But no one laughs; on the contrary. Everyone watches her seriously, as if waiting for her to figure out what to do.

Instinctively, she joins two pieces that seem to fit together, and in that instant memories of when she was a child come back in the form of vivid three-dimensional visions…

Literary genre: fiction, introspective novel, social novel, in support of Women

THE HUNT, The First Investigation by Andreina Serri – Angela Iannarelli

“We believe we are free. But it is a partial free will ours.

I didn’t want to come back. Instead, here I am again, almost 40, a prisoner of my nightmares, in the place from which I had escaped promising myself that I would never look back. I could have refused, of course. But I love my work too much.”

In which story does the sheep kill the wolf? In the one where the prey becomes the hunter.

The hunt is a game of blood and revenge, beyond any Good and beyond any Evil.

And you, whose side are you on?

Literary genre: thriller, fiction, introspective, in support of Women

Gaia Bear – Donatella Franzese

“In “Bear Gaia,” we immerse ourselves in an enchanting world where nature and its creatures are at the center of the narrative. The story introduces us to Gaia, a kind-hearted bear who lives in a forest together with Bruno and their three cubs. However, the peaceful balance of their lives is upset by an unexpected event: Gaia makes a mistake in an attempt to defend her family from an alleged threat. This mistake leads Gaia to be unfairly punished, but it is through this experience that the central themes of the story emerge. Friendship, cooperation, and the power of truth become paramount for Gaia as she tries to overcome the consequences of her mistake. The story teaches us the importance of these universal values and invites us to reflect on how our actions can affect others. But “Bear Gaia” goes beyond simple morality. It invites readers to view the world from different perspectives, embrace diversity and cultivate peace and harmony between humans and animals. Through Gaia’s adventures, we discover that mutual respect and understanding can lead to deeper and more meaningful relationships. This book is an exciting journey through the wilderness and its inhabitants, reminding us of the importance of protecting and preserving our environment and all the creatures that inhabit it. I hope “Bear Gaia” inspires readers to reflect on their relationships with the natural world and to seek ways to live in harmony with it. Happy reading.”

Literary genre: fairy tale

The Leaves of Destiny – Marco Motta

The frog moved toward the three sources.

“These are three magical sources that will take you to where you will understand why you are here and what choice you have made.”

“The Leaves of Destiny” plunges us into the parallel universe of Haara and Calideo, planets ruled by the Purple and Green moons, intertwined by a secret common destiny. Agaty, the deity of nature, decrees the merging of worlds into one renewed planet, a process guarded by the Black Druids, custodians of a dark magic that fuels Black Evil, a force capable of destruction in order to be reborn. As the planets approach the precipice of transformation, black druids aspire to a new world under their rule.

In this cosmic setting, Alys, a young druid of Haara, is chosen by the goddess Agaty to foil the plans of her dark brethren. Launched on a journey of discovery and growth, Alys traverses her own Way, a path of initiation that leads her to explore the planet and confront Black Evil. From a life of confinement in a Druidic circle, he ventures into the forests of the Ancient Oaks, where questions about the fate of his world are echoed in his doubts.

Fate intertwines Alys with Tias, knight of the Scarlet Sickle of Calideo, in a mysterious bond forged by spirits and magical crystals, which sees them united against adversity. Alys’ saga tells us of unlikely alliances, forgotten ancient magics and a journey that defies certainties, where the protagonist will surrender to Black Evil to emerge renewed and ready to understand the mysteries of Ancient Magic.

THE BOLLA, save me from this cliché – Valentina Gambino

“I live by irony and imagination, the cross and delight of my life, like coffee at the right temperature but without the sugar, like a pizza topped great but with a burnt edge. This is me. In most of my dreams I see huge, confusing, messy houses, just like me. In fact, they represent myself, among secret rooms, mysterious passages, doors that are better not to open, and rooms I had never seen before and was unaware of. Very frequently I dream of going out without shoes, or without clothes. I cross long streets in the sunlight, under the astonished eyes of passers-by who see me sneaking out bare-assed as I try to at least cover my boobs.”

Veronica has had many women in her life and has also incredibly managed to be hated by all of them except Emma, with whom she has been in a stable relationship for fifteen years: she shares a house, two dogs, and a job with her. The last of three daughters, full of insecurities and psychological turmoil that force her to always feel she has to prove something in order to be seen, when Veronica has a goal she pushes, pushes, pushes like a caterpillar, until she reaches it but leaves only rubble and injuries in her path. In this particular case, the target is her therapist, Fiamma Martini.

“I have to take responsibility, for once in my life I have to have the courage to make ends meet despite the fact that expenses have exceeded – by far – income. I am madly in love with Emma. The more I think about it, the more certain I am. Why did I cheat on her? I don’t know.”

Literary genre: introspective, social, in support of Women

Corrado – Paolo Di Censi

“The first time a manuscript arrives at a publisher it comes across as a question mark the size of a twelve-story house at least. You won’t know what it tells until you get to the last page with ‘The End’ written on it.”

There are those who claim that stories are written by writers, that poems are born from the pen of poets, but no one has ever bothered to think that they are actually born from dreams, even those of a bear almost two meters tall.

Literary genre: introspective, fiction, fairy tales and fables

Matching coffee: Armonia
Human beings – Laura star

In this collection of short stories, lives intertwine and shatter like reflections on cracked glass. Through a series of fascinating and intricate human portraits, we are confronted with truths that burn and wounds that do not heal.

From innocence lost in childhood friendship to the painful loneliness of the last goodbye, we explore the boundaries of love and attraction, death and grief. Through each page, what emerges is an intricate map of human relationships, with all their nuances and contradictions.

From secrets buried under the appearance of normalcy to relationships shrouded in the shadows of the pathological, each story pulls us into a vortex of cruel emotions and uncomfortable truths.

The author masterfully captures the complexity of human relationships without judgment, offering us a stark and unfiltered mirror of our own humanity.

Literary genre: fiction, introspective novel, social novel

Two weeks ago we had introduced the IWCA, which is the International Women in Coffee Alliance.

Instead, today we present the single-origin Specialty coffee belonging to the circuit: the Brazilian Women’s Coffee signed by Ernani Coffee.

Because the association not only promotes and publicizes the importance of supply chain sustainability, but also makes a concrete commitment to support the meticulous work done in the coffee’s countries of origin.

In addition, this Friday, March 8, as you know, will be International Women’s Day, so we wanted to take advantage of this date to let the widest possible audience know about the Association and its projects and concrete help, along with our Café.

For this reason, Caffè delle Donne will be available online at the Ernani Coffee Shop and in Torrefazione Ernani in Milan, Corso Buenos Aires, 20. Here you can either buy it for home or as a gift, or taste it in espresso.

Along with each package sold, we will combine a descriptive flyer about the Alliance and coffee, so you know exactly what it is and why it has such great value in the industry!

Description of “Women’s Cafe”

A socio-sustainable coffee with a sensual and feminine flavor profile, grown, harvested and processed by women.

Women’s Coffee is a single-origin from the Cachoeira farm in Brazil, grown, harvested, and processed from a pink plantation adhered to the IWCA.

More specifically, it is a Brazilian Santos, from the Minas Gerais area, famous for the high quality of coffees produced.

The larger cursor on the map below indicates exactly which region our coffee comes from. While the other sliders show the other coffee-growing areas of Brazil.

Everywhere, more and more women are becoming an essential part of the bean processing, occupying positions of power and revolutionizing the coffee world. To date, an estimated 70 percent of the workforce in the countries of origin is employed by women, and 25 percent of plantations are managed by women entrepreneurs.

Giving them importance and value by providing better social, economic and working conditions is no longer just important, it is crucial.

But back to us…

The Brazilian Santos Women’s Coffee selected by Ernani grows at an altitude of about 1000m asl, thus giving off pleasant and sweet aromas, which we will see in detail below.

The fruits, containing our kernels, are harvested with extreme care through picking, that is, hand picking drupe by drupe, selecting only those that are ripe at the right point, and processed afterwards using the washed method. Then the growers remove the husk and pulp in order to place the beans inside clean water pots to ferment. Finally, the grains are left to dry in the sun.

This will bring increased freshness and aromaticity during extraction.

It presents sweet notes of almond and red fruits, which are then balanced by a fresh and pleasant tartaric acidity, reminiscent of pink grapefruit.

Balancing this are softer notes of cocoa and nuts.

Suitable for

Those who seek a high-quality, fresh, fruity and citrusy single-origin Arabica, as well as socio-sustainable and Specialty coffee certified.

Compare it to other single-origin Ernani below!

Extraction tips

Espresso

Espresso extract we recommend a dose of 8.5/9g per person, to obtain an intense and creamy cup, and a water temperature of 93°C.

With this method the more acidic notes are enhanced, in addition to the development of a vast, intense and amazing aromatic profile.

Mocha pot

The coffee in this case is more sweet than acidic, with even a very slight hint of bitterness, absent in the espresso.

N.B. remember never to press the coffee inside the mocha filter and never to make the “mound” either! These steps do not make the coffee more intense, only more bitter and with a burnt aftertaste.

The coffee in the filter just needs to be leveled!

Paper filter

If extracted in a filter, the sweet notes are enhanced even more, while the acidity is more balanced. The aromatic notes of fruit in this case dominate the cup.

We recommend a Brew Ratio of 64g of mince to 1L of water and a temperature of 92°C.

Ernani Coffee and IWCA_Italy

We on the Ernani Coffee team strongly believe in gender equality.

In fact, our administrator is actually a woman: Claudia, without whom the whole machine could not move, an essential figure of the whole big family and a point of reference for the team, to say the least.

The other female figures are: Monia, Assistant Manager of Ernani’s Torrefazione in Milan; Alma, a great barista; Martina, a counter and cashier who is not yet 20 years old but already shows great professionalism, always working in Torrefazione.

And finally there’s me, Martina, Marketing, Social Media and E-commerce manager, passionate about coffee and especially proud to be part of this team, ready to prove how much us girls are worth in the business world.

We became members of the Alliance from the first day the Italian chapter opened in 2022. Since this year then I also actively help in the social media management of @iwca_italia. Follow us to find out about all the 2024 projects!

Another Coffee Stories is the new and innovative Milanese publishing house with the goal of bringing our full senses back to the center of the literary experience.

The synaesthetic reading

Synesthesia Mutual contamination between the senses. It occurs when stimulations from one sense induce experiences, automatic and involuntary, in a second sense.

But how is this possible?
  • As it is easy to guess, sight is awakened by the words of the incredible authors, the same ones who are able to recreate an entire world in our minds, able to make us live for a moment outside our own routine, with only the stimulus of creativity;
  • Instead, the sense of touch is activated by the textured covers, designed to fully represent the author and his work;

The Obistar Galaxy, IA. Final Blackout – Alberico Mattiacci

After a period of hiding, Paul Agnini returns to the scene to lead the final confrontation that will take place on Planet Earth: on one side, the AIA, which aspires to control humans through its Neuronal Network as if it were a new God; on the other, a group of young people led by the elderly Paul Agnini and armed with their dreams to communicate through an unsuspected alternative network, fully convinced, still, of the possibility of a human-scale world.

Who will prevail?

I am back – Libera Martignetti

As a child I was very careful to stay in the tiles, not to step on the edges, the boundaries, with the terror of… I don’t really know what, what could have ever happened to me?

So growing up I unlearned the rule, defied the uncertain and disobeyed the ban.

I did it with words, writing them down.

The voice remained mute and mute I could sound, too used to complacency and silence, on the surface.

Instead, inside, a decomposed magma, fluid and fertile, was creating words upon words, waiting for the opportune moment, waiting for the necessary storm.

Each step, each verse, a step into the deep, through fissures that at times reveal glimmers.

And like clear, sudden, bright gleams, each word reveals to me something dark, dreamlike, intimate, sacred and unmentionable again.

Almost like a curse, the poem comes, I just have to accept it, I just have to surrender, grateful.

Matching coffee: Blue Diamond
Adelina Superstar – Alessandra Santisi

Criminals. This is how obese people, who are responsible for abnormal health care expenditures because of their wicked behavior, are viewed. To restore the countryʼs economy, as well as its decorum and aesthetics, a persecution by the Ministry of Sustainable Weight begins, which soon turns into a dictatorship. With a husband who hates her and a skinny daughter who tries to redeem her, the personal odyssey of Adelina, a 54-year-old pyrotechnician guilty only of being fat, will lead her between secret markets and improvised theatrical stages to become the leader of an unthinkable revolution.

Matching coffee: Stretto
The Heir, binary stars – Alrisha Mars

In a post-apocalyptic world divided between Humans, Transformed and Abominations, “The Heir” weaves a story of friendship, hidden powers and surprising discoveries. Celyne Hero, the heir to the throne of the New York Shrine, meets Cassandra Morgana, a mysterious Italian girl on the run from a bereavement, sparking an epic adventure of magic, betrayal and revelations. Together, they face coups and ancestral mysteries, trying to heal a family feud and save their world, doomed since global warming two centuries earlier caused a mysterious virus to emerge from the ice. An engaging tale of identity, acceptance and courage, where two girls struggle to forge a future of peace and understanding. “The Heir” is an exciting journey into a universe where every choice can change destiny.

Paired Coffee: Women’s Coffee – Brazil
Four Voice Choir – Chiara Lopresti

C, a young humanities student with a sensitive and passionate soul, finds herself having to reflect on the true nature of the feeling that binds her to her boyfriend, F, whom she has always considered the love of her life. C’s doubts arise after meeting W, the brilliant and self-centered student who gives her metrical lessons in preparation for the dreaded Latin exam. W is, however, engaged to G. The four voices skillfully follow each other to tell their own version of events, allowing the reader to observe the same events from different perspectives, underscoring how intricate and changing the web of relationships we experience is, almost as much as reality itself.

Get ready everyone because a new offline event has arrived in collaboration with Another Coffee Stories.

This time the innovative publishing house has really outdone itself, and we look forward to presenting the whole day!

Literary Stations: Author Destinations

The entire day is designed to take you on an extraordinary journey through three different literary themes, stimulating all five senses!

But how exactly?

In the refined setting of the Cabinet Art Gallery in Milan, Another Coffee Stories, the Milan-based publishing house offering the innovative concept of synaesthetic reading, promises to combine art and literature, and of course our Ernani coffee, in an unprecedented experience.

The event represents a unique combination of the fascination of words and the beauty of the synaesthetic approach, which will transform the world of literature into a tangible reality.

Synesthesia
Mutual contamination between the senses. It occurs when stimulations from one sense induce experiences, automatic and involuntary, in a second sense.

For example, the robustness of a coffee might remind one of a gory, unforgiving plot.

Inside the Gallery there will be three tracks with historic carriages, which will take you to unique literary worlds through different settings and atmospheres dedicated to three authors who have made the history of world literature-Doris, Gulliver, and Holden.

Each author will then be the keeper of a special track-a setting that reflects his or her work.

Choose the track and style that best represents you and enjoy the opportunity to immerse yourself in these worlds, where art, good food, coffee, and literature come together in one immersive experience.

The role of Café Ernani

We will stimulate the sense of taste!

You can taste as many coffees as you like, prepared through brewing methods, i.e., coffee extraction methods alternative to espresso, such as V60 and Aeropress.

We will have three different single-origin Specialty coffees with us to discover three different flavors of coffee and fully appreciate their aromatic range and the incredible aromas they give off.

So take your coffee and savor it during the book presentation to welcome all the senses into one experience.

Books presented

Track 1
Petricore – Ivana Ferriol

Petricore is the smell of rain beating on the earth.

Petricore is the scent of something good that Eva wants to return to. Fresh, new water, bathing her skin, making her feel that she is still alive. The scent of a new desire, that of starting over…

Petricore is a story about violence, guilt, and Eva’s desire to love herself again, despite everything.

Black Wheat – Paola Migliacci

When she was only 10 years old, Alice, a perfectly healthy child, was abandoned by her mother in Treviso’s Sant’Artemio asylum. Katrin, a psychiatrist full of firm discipline and icy beauty, longs to become a mother. When it is confirmed to her that she is infertile and is therefore left by her husband-a fanatical fascist hierarch-she comes to terms with the same patient madness by devising a diabolical plan so as not to lose her man and her position. Upon the arrival of the new director, Ottavio Mastrelli, Alice will have a chance to try to break free from the enforced confinement that threatens to truly drive her to madness. But, the madness, is not only inside the asylum: outside the war is raging and Treviso is being bombed. Alice fights not to give in to the desire for revenge by showing that it is possible for each of us to keep our humanity unharmed, even when everyone around has inexorably lost it.

Wild Violet – Lisa Guerrini

‘Wild Violet’ is a story of strength and resilience, of realignment with one’s authentic identity. This engaging and touching novel will appeal to anyone who has faced life’s challenges, offering a fascinating portrait of human inner struggle and the ability to rise from the ashes of self-doubt. An invitation to be carried away, to discover hope and to find oneself in the pages of this extraordinary narrative.

Freedom to the robin – Matilde Gallo

“The impact had smashed her, and they had taken care to carry the pieces away. Nothing was left of her. Only the memory of a crash. If you try to fly you should be sure to succeed because there are no second chances. She had tried. Like a clumsy little bird she had flapped her wings hard, hoping that at least the power of the blow could keep her up, but flying doesn’t work that way. It takes technique. And luck.”

Track 2
The Breath of the Stars – Rudy Pesenti

“I pause in the silence and imagine myself in a weekʼs time, facing a beautiful sunset with a huge ball of orange light in front of me. I ask myself, what is left when all the noise weʼre used to fades away? And I answer myself: I am left. With my thoughts, my uncertainties, my living with my sails unfurled in the wind, the circumstances that got me where I am, the people I met by chance, the good emotions and the images that move you when you replay them in your head. When all the noise is gone, in the end, everything remains.”

Saga of the Phoenix – Alessio Signoriello

“I was surprised how the two events, of the book and the poster, had happened so close to each other, and something snapped in me. I felt as if chained, a slave to a fate I had not decided, so I decided to leave. I was going to be an adventurer, I told myself. […]”

A phoenix rises from the ashes of a forgotten fate.

Hidden West – Gabriele Cesena

1 week. This is the time that Aaron, as if suddenly awakened from a long period of torpor, takes to try to put the pieces of his life back together. During a business trip to Lisbon something brings him back to another trip he made to the same city years earlier together with Geneva. But where is she now? Why did their story end and, more importantly, when did it happen? Aaron decides to set out in search of Geneva and the truths he seems to have taken away with her. But will it be enough to plot movements on a map to reach the place where something has gone into hiding?

Blue eyed Tokyo – Mattia Pinna

Amidst the noises, smells, and different stories possible to trace in a pulsating underground Tokyo of attractions, a nameless young woman wanders like a shadow. Or rather, by many names. No one really knows her. And anyone who thinks they know anything about her is wrong. But there is one detail he cannot hide: his almond-shaped blue eyes, more unique than rare. In pursuit of a personal chimera with an abyssal gaze, J.T. Ross, a middle-aged New Yorker writer whose successful novels keep his utterly unsuccessful private life afloat, will choose to hunt down the very woman with a fluid, elusive identity, like a wave of the sea.

The follies of fate – Marco Motta
Track 3
Serene is the Night – Edith Maria Frattosi

Daniel, Claudia, and John are shining candles with the dreams and complications of every teenager. Each is a protagonist in the common story that intertwines their paths. In the provincial town where they live-prison and salvation-they come to terms with life and deal with love and death. Adolescence is like the night: tumultuous, but also serene. And, like everything, the night ends, for better or worse.

The Secret of the Wind – Alessandra Montali

“Always remember that things never happen by accident; if it happened there is always a why, maybe hidden, but it is always there. Giorgio’s abandonment was indispensable for you to regain yourself.”

Francesca, after being abandoned by her partner for another woman, decides to move on and leave Como, moving to an ancient village in the Marche region of Italy.

It will be that very small town that will send back to her, carried by the wind, strange déjà-vu that seem to be linked to a past she does not even remember. Thus begins a troubled search for self and roots.

Siberian Love – Lilia Bicec

“History cannot be concealed! Truth can emerge through the bones that can surface from the earth at any time….”

A dramatic, never-unveiled episode from World War II: the case of the massacre of prisoners of war near Bălți, a town located in northern Bessarabia.

Vittorio Montini, an Italian-born prisoner of war, is one of the few survivors of the massacre, who managed to save himself by escaping from the mass grave.

Arriving in his late teens, he is no longer afraid of the authorities, and tells his granddaughter the truth about the thousands of military personnel, allies of the Reich, imprisoned in lager n. 33.

Metropolitan Solitudes – Laura Stolla

“Metropolitan Solitudes” is a collection of twelve short stories. These are not just stories, but lives that follow one another and intertwine, populated by diverse characters grappling with their own existential dramas. It is loneliness that is the mainstay of the entire narrative, the one that leads individuals to take actions that will have unexpected and painful consequences for themselves, and for others. But it is out of suffering, such controversial and frightening ground, that the flower that leads to change will be born.

Miscarried Lives – Claudia Ferretti

“Convinced that time was the only tool to fight pain, Robert increased his training sessions aiming each time to exceed his limits. He never stopped. Not even on the day he was suspended because he cleanly cut off two of his assistant’s fingers while amputating the right leg of a patient, who ended up bleeding to death.”

“The Smokehouses of Soho,” aired on the Yastaradio station, are twenty-five tales as real as they are surreal that turn the spotlight on the power of nonsense. These are stories of wacky and courageous heroes who are able to give an end to their existence by turning their mistakes into victories.

Adelina superstar – Alessandra Santisi

Today I show you a different, unique and really good reality!

I’m talking about In.vece a new and young brand that offers a plant-based alternative to everything, or almost everything!

We started collaborating in 2021, and we are really pleased with them, both because of the goodness of the products and the continuous research they do, as well as the breadth of their solutions.

And all this is a project carried out by two brothers, Matteo and Dario Beluffi, who have made their passion their work and with excellent results to boot!

You can find their products in Torrefazione Ernani in Milan, Corso Buenos Aires, 20.

But let’s find out more!

Presentation

In.vece is a new brand, but not only that-it is a new idea!

An idea that nothing should limit the joys of the palate!

In.vece wants to give everyone, those who are intolerant, allergic or have simply made a different food choice, an excellent alternative.

To do so, he researches, tests, develops and harvests new products, rich in innovation, delicious to taste and perfect to use in the preparation of both sweet and savory recipes.

The product line is constantly being updated: great new products arrive every month to spread, drink or eat!

Products

As mentioned above, In.vece offers a plant alternative in each category:

  • In.lieu of egg, which includes protein algae (whole egg/vegetable yolk) and aquafaba (chickpea-steeping water-vegetable albumen)
  • In.lieu of milk, range of beverages designed by a professional for professionals based on oats, soy, coconut and almond;
  • In.lieu of cream, vegetable whipped topping without soy, gluten and hydrogenated fats and with only 10 percent total fat;
  • In.lieu of chocolate, alternative to white but almond (20 percent), soy-free, fiber-rich and 30 percent less sugar than conventional.
Everything is of course 100% plant-based, as well as gluten-free and without added sugars! *(where possible)

For example, Oat milk:

  • It is allergen-free;
  • It has only four ingredients;
  • It’s great both cold and hot: try whipping it up to make a great creamy, velvety cappuccino!
  • It can be used at home, at the bar, or in restaurants for sweet and savory recipes;
  • And it is soy-free and without added sugars.

But not only that!

With all their milk alternatives, we also prepare other beverages:

  • Chai Latte: a spice blend of cinnamon, fresh cardamom, star anise, whole cane sugar and Indian black tea, as tradition dictates. It is an energizing drink thanks to cinnamon and cardamom;
  • Gold Milk: spice blend of turmeric, pepper mix, rosebuds, tonka bean and white cane sugar. It is perfect for activating metabolism due to curcumin and piperine. In addition, turmeric is also a powerful adaptogen, thus helping the body counteract inflammatory phases.

Speaking of In.lieu of egg, these are products to replace whole egg or egg white in the kitchen or bar, ideal for both sweet and savory recipes.

Seaweed, for example, is powdered and naturally contains 63 g of protein per 100 g of product, as well as being a source of vitamins and minerals-ideal for supplementing the intake of essential amino acids in a diet.

Aquafaba, also in powder form, replaces egg whites to create meringues and macarons. Having excellent emulsifying abilities, it is also perfect for creating foams and sauces.

And again.

The 100% plant-based and gluten-free macaroons, as well as the tartlets, make for excellent shortbread and mignon tarts.

Now comes my favorite products, however: spreads!

These, too, like everything else plant-based, vegan, gluten-free, with no added sugars and only good, fresh ingredients.

In Torrefazione you will find Salted Caramel Creamy Spread made with Coconut.

Trust me, who by now will be at the end of the tenth jar, it’s too good!

The range of spreads is also expanding! I can’t anticipate anything yet, but I’ve already tasted a couple of new ones and they are absurdly good, you’d never go back to any other cream!

Complementary products

In addition to the products already presented, thanks to In.vece we learned about another small company engaged on the vegetable front: special foods.

In fact, in Torrefazione you can find Special foods artisanal, 100% vegetable and gluten-free cookies.

There are many flavors: lemon, vanilla, coconut, pistachio, hazelnut, and cocoa and cinnamon.

And they come in 40-gram packages, so perfect for breakfast!

In Ernani Coffee Roasting

All this you can find in Torrefazione Ernani in Milan, Corso Buenos Aires, 20.

We have espoused their philosophy and try to offer it to our customers in the best possible way.
In fact, we want to offer anyone who walks through the front door of the cafeteria the opportunity to find fresh and really good products, regardless of any intolerances or allergies they may have and regardless of the diet they have decided to follow.
Everyone has the right to enjoy a great breakfast in the morning, as well as always finding something tasty for a snack.

We are waiting for you to taste all In.vece products together at Torrefazione Ernani, Corso Buenos Aires, 20 in Milan.

It is a 750m walk from Porta Venezia and a 350m walk from the Porta Venezia M1 stop.

Meet Caffè Ernani new project in collaboration with Gone West: For the Planet.

Already the name “For the Planet” hints at the intent of the project. In fact, the collaboration came about to breathe new life into our coffee.

We at Caffè Ernani are trying to increase our commitment to the environment step by step. There is still a long way to go, but the work to get there is instead continuous.

I came across this company, Gone West, one morning somewhat by chance, and was immediately fascinated.

I had to contact them-so I did!

And now we are finally ready to launch a new product: the For the Planet blend.

Learn more, view the product online:

But let’s go step by step.

What is Gone West?
Gone West is a company inspired and driven by concrete environmental and socio-economic goals.
Since 2013, it has planted more than 5 million trees and created more than 150 “green” jobs.

It offers people and companies innovative and creative opportunities to work toward building a better future, combining the urgency of conserving and regenerating the planet’s natural resources with the need to ensure economic and social stability throughout the process.

“Together we are stronger.”

By raising funds through various existing partnerships with multiple companies, it makes all of us participate as new shareholders for the environment.

How? Planting trees!
That’s where the For the Planet project comes in!

It is a solution designed to restore power of action to companies intent on making a difference.

By planting dozens of native species, they not only repair the life-support system, but also create a more fire-resistant landscape that provides a safer habitat for people and animals living in the area.

Gone West is not only planting trees, but also protecting them!

Plant&Protect means planting trees in a way that respects their environment and establishing management practices that protect them throughout their lives, very different from classical forestry operations.

As you may know, the forestry sector reduces the value of trees by focusing only on the timber they can produce and the carbon they can sequester.

In order to be legitimate and ensure that all trees are actually planted and protected they have “Plant&Protect” agreements, whereby they guarantee long life of the planted trees.

And to top it off they really put everything to the test! The project is in fact:
  • Economically feasible;
  • Environmentally friendly;
  • Environmentally sustainable;
  • Designed with respect for the natural environment;
  • And importance is given to the planet and to people.

Starting from nothing, they planted more than 5 million trees. Moreover, over time, they have gained relevant and extensive experience in forest creation, restocking, landscaping and maintenance work.

The goal? Create environmental and social benefits worldwide, generate ethical and ecological jobs, and help create or restore natural habitats.
What are we at Caffè Ernani doing with Gone West?

We at Ernani Coffee have decided to create a new blend that will be called For the Planet.

A blend designed specifically for the occasion, with an unmistakable taste that will leave an indelible mark in our memory, but also in the environment!

In fact, for every pack of coffee sold, a portion of the proceeds will be donated to the Gone West company for the For the Planet project, which we have joined.

That’s where you come in!

Through your purchases you can help the environment, you can be an integral part of the shareholders who pay special attention to the increasingly felt and urgent environmental problem!

It is only you who can make this project really great!

Learn more, view the product online:

Let’s discover together the For the Planet blend

A coffee designed to end a hearty lunch, reactivating and helping with digestion.

A coffee that can also be sipped leisurely and reminiscent of a nice cup of steaming tea, sweet and delicate, or, why not, even a mouth-watering hot chocolate flavored with cinnamon, depending on the extraction method used.

Special thanks to Paul, our roaster, who has arrived at a well-balanced coffee, the result of a skillful blend of Central American Arabica coffees and robusta, African coffee varieties.

In detail, it is a blend with a greater prevalence of Arabica coffee.

The selected Arabica qualities, specifically Brazilian Santos Cerrado Bom Chocolate and Guatemalan SHB Huehuetenango, are very distinctive in that they have a pleasant, fresh acidity, along with intense aromas of bitter cocoa the former and ripe fruit, such as plum or strawberry, the latter.

The sweetness is then balanced by the bitterness added by the robusta coffees and intense and really tasty dark chocolate notes.

Paul thus succeeded in creating a balanced blend, as in a melodic symphony.

Finally, the espresso crema is firm and deep hazelnut in color, while the body is round and enveloping.

It is a coffee suitable for those seeking a blend balanced between sweetness and bitterness, with enveloping notes of ripe fruit and chocolate.

All this combined, as already explained, with great environmental sustainability!

A new sponsorship of Caffè Ernani has been born!

We decided to support a local sporting entity that we are very fond of.

In fact, the owners of Caffè Ernani have always been big basketball fans, and having all grown up in Desio, they have one particular team in their hearts : Aurora Desio Basketball . They follow every game, even on the road, so they always have a way to cheer their favorite team.

We could only begin this collaboration to offer concrete support.

We believe that supporting sports is important: wellness and physical health are fundamental to being well.

Aurora Desio Basketball – Presentation

The club was born on June 29, 1994, a few days after the demise of the old and glorious A.S. Aurora Basket Desio.

After the first 1994/95 season, exclusively dedicated to youth activities and studded with several satisfactions, the merger with Orobica Basket Bergamo allowed the Desi-based club to return to the B2 series championship in the 1995/96 season.

The following year, thanks to the acquisition of Juve Cremona’s rights, Aurora participated in the B1 championship, immediately touching promotion to the A2 series at the first attempt.

In the summer of ’98, however, they opted for a about-face, choosing not to register for the B1, but to restart from the Promotion league, in which they could have their own youngsters play.

The climb to the national championships proves to be sudden, and in just 3 seasons Aurora conquers the C1 series.

Indeed, it began with the finals in the spring of 1999 during which the Desian team hit the D series; the following year the script repeated itself: no playoffs and direct promotion to the C2 series.

In 2000/01, after finishing the regular season in second place, the Desians earned a pass to the C1 Series by taking the runner-up spot at the Final-Six in Cassano d’Adda. He spent thirteenseasons in the C1 series, reaching the playoffs , five times to the semifinals and in the 2009/10 and 2013/14 seasons to the promotion final.

In the summer of 2014, an application for repechage to the Serie B was granted, allowing Aurora to return to the national third tier 16 years after its last appearance. This incredible experience lasted a full 5 years, achieving a great result, reaching the promotion playoffs, which were won in the 2017/18 season.

In the following season Aurora relegated again to the C Gold Series, a category it still plays in today.

Summing up Pallacanestro Aurora Desio over the years won the following titles:

  • 4 Junior/Under 20 National Finals (1995, 2000, 2004, 2017)
  • 3 Under-19 National Finals (2009, 2010, 2013)
  • 2 Cadet/Under 18 National Finals (1996, 2016)
  • 4 Under-17 National Finals (2008, 2011, 2014, 2015)
  • 5 Student/Under 16 National Finals (1996, 2005, 2006, 2007, 2016)
  • 7 Under 15 National Finals (2008, 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012, 2014, 2015)
  • 1 Under 14 National Final (2019)

We can only be proud of our team’s achievements.

As of today, Thursday, April 29, 2021, they are undefeated in the current league and are running straight into the playoffs for promotion to the minor league.

Ready to come back to cheer in attendance even more than before from the next championship!

An unprecedented new and creative collaboration has been born: we offer the union of the moment of reading, to a moment of tasting the beloved black drink, to satisfy all the senses in a synaesthetic experience!

Some time ago, I was approached by the Milan-based publishing house Another Coffee Stories about a project that immediately got me very excited: combining coffee and culture.

They asked me if we had any way to combine some coffee with their book releases, and immediately my head started grinding ideas.

We have always narrated, both in the roasting plant in Milan and on the caffeernani.com website, all our coffees with the appropriate technical specifications to describe it; also through the immedesimation of the moment of tasting.

As you well know, each coffee has a well-defined and unique flavor and aroma profile that can bring back memories or make you feel different emotions.

There are coffees that are more edgy and unbalanced, others that are softer and more balanced. Some have a wider aromatic range, highlighting different sensations from time to time, while others are more focused on a few, but very intense, scents.

Why then not match each book with a specific coffee?

Each book conveys different fascinating experiences: romantic, hard, raw, adventurous and so on…
Hence, comes the idea of creating a synaesthetic experience, that is, perceiving multiple sensations together, stimulating sight and taste simultaneously.

With each Another Coffee Stories editions book purchased, you can receive a blend of Ernani Coffee expertly matched to the work. All in order to emphasize and embellish the peculiarities of each element and create a unique experience.

Interesting, isn’t it?

The publishing house

The publishing house was founded on December 4, 2020 as a laboratory of ideas for new publishing, which aims to break out of the usual industry logics to give voice to innovative and stimulating proposals. A young and open project that puts the author and his work in the foreground.

Indeed, the publishing house wants to build a fairer publishing industry that can offer authors the best possible recognition for their work. This is why it opposes the concept of “paid publishing” and seeks to give voice to the most innovative and inspiring proposals.

Another Coffee Stories is committed to accompanying writers from the creative stage to the distribution stage by putting in place an innovative promotion plan.

The publishing house’s project spans all literary genres: from fiction and poetry to nonfiction and also passing through graphic novels, photography and comics.

One of the peculiarities of Another Coffee Stories are the covers sewn on to the author and the novel, entirely handmade by the team’s illustrators, and the magnificent Zibbies characters, woolen puppets made entirely by hand, inspired by the characters in the books.

CEO and Founder

Anna Giada Altomare

City women with a Mary Poppins-like spirit, busy every day 24/7, but still able to make time for happy hour.

“I want to be a book leader who helps animals.”

This I said I wanted to be as a child, so much so that I wrote it down in my first Italian assignment in elementary school. I was definitely a little confused about how the world was going, but I was clear about the two things I loved right away: books and animals…a little later coffee arrived!

I hope this project excites you as much as it excites me!

A new product has entered Caffè Ernani catalog: the Brazilian Santos “Caffè delle donne”! A coffee in which the goodness of the raw material blends with the passion and respect of those who cultivate it.

Women’s Coffee is a single-origin from the Chachoeira farm in Brazil, grown, harvested and processed from a plantation adhering to the IWCA (International Women’s Coffee Alliance) protocol.

The IWCA is a symbol of the fight against exploitation and gender inequality. , with a greater focus on the grassroots of the coffee sector, in which farmers are generally poor and in disadvantaged social situations.

I am sure that after reading the article you will also agree with me and admire this project as much as we do at Ernani.

The IWCA is a global network that unites and supports the resourcefulness of millions of women around the world, starting in coffee trade hubs such as Guatemala, India and Brazil and now operating in more than 22 countries.

It is a nonpartisan, and inclusive organization, which does not consider gender, religion or political thoughts. Accommodates everyone, including individual, private or public organizations.

The only limitation imposed is sharing the common end goal of protecting the rights of every worker and strengthening the garrison of women in the coffee community, which has always been a very masculine environment.

The core values of the association are:

  • Respect for people and their ideas
  • Economic and social sustainability
  • Equity in the distribution of the world’s resources
  • Collaboration between communities and top management of corporate properties
  • The greater empowerment of everyone’s personal resources
  • Inclusion of all: women, men and youth, to make a positive impact on their communities
The key aspect is precisely that it ensures that everyone has the opportunity to lead a dignified, sustainable and meaningful life.

It strives to be able to provide equal employment opportunities for both sexes, as well as protect labor itself by preventing the exploitation of farmers.

Concrete efforts lie in awarding them higher pay commensurate with the cost of living, greater respect and protection of their rights, or the construction of in-plantation kindergartens or even the possibility of healthy housing at affordable prices.

We on the Ernani Coffee team strongly believe in gender equality.

As you have seen in past articles, one of our administrators is Claudia, without whom the whole machine could not move. An essential figure of the whole big family, to say the least, and a point of reference for everyone.

Then there is me, Martina, who is in charge of the entire marketing department, proud to be part of this team and ready to prove how much us young girls are worth in the working world.

Then we get to talk about Naima, the main figure in our Corso Buenos Aires roastery, with a great deal of experience behind her and who always brings a touch of serious lightheartedness to our service behind the counter.

And last, but not least, there are Alessandra, Carolina and Monia, who keep their colleagues in line and always careful to offer impeccable, fast and professional service.

Now all you have to do is enjoy some excellent coffee while also supporting such a noble project.
