Our Coffee Community

A stylish and modern eatery in Perth’s CBD, Tiisch pulls no punches when it comes to the dining experience. Owner and chef, Sven Sander, established Tiisch in 2016 to service the growing demand for high-quality cafes in Perth.  Named after the German word for ‘table’; Tiisch alludes to both Sven’s cultural background and his philosophy

It’s no secret that many rural coffee-producing communities worldwide exist well below the poverty line.  For many communities, coffee is a lifeline crop that keeps them functioning, but not necessarily thriving.  For the Wau community in Papua New Guinea’s Morobe Province, a subsistence income is not enough to run a town with multiple needs, not

The Izzo Vivi is the newest addition to our domestic coffee machine line-up and has managed to strike the right chords with our customers in a very short amount of time.  The Italian manufacturer has taken a different approach to their long-running dual-boiler model (the Alex Duetto) and has created the Vivi; a simpler and

As we all know, there is more to the café dining experience than just great food and coffee; often the ambience of our surroundings plays an equally important role in how much we enjoy ourselves.  In Western Australia we are extremely lucky to have such an idyllic setting on our doorstep and perhaps even luckier

In the coffee industry we are always learning.  If you ever meet a barista who says they know it all they are either lying or they are kidding themselves; coffee is a complex and constantly evolving product that, even after hundreds of years, we still don’t fully understand.  When it comes to Australia’s favourite brew

Some of the most passionate barista’s we know are home barista’s. We have sold high-end domestic coffee machines to: pharmacists, tradies, sportspeople, doctors, students, mums, dads and grandparents.  There is no single defining demographic for these home-baristas; the only commonality is their enthusiasm and love for all things coffee.  At Dimattina we stock an extensive

It’s a combination that has been gaining popularity in recent years and for good reason.  While on the surface, coffee making and barbering may seem like completely different professions, the sub-cultures that have emerged within the two industries have some startling similarities.  Both barbers and baristas regard their craft as an art-form, something that requires
