Indonesia is known for its rich coffee heritage, with beans that carry complex, bold flavors shaped by the region’s unique climate and volcanic soil. At Bright Bean Coffee, we take pride in partnering with small roasters who bring out the best in their beans. One of these gems is Ruang Kopi - a roaster dedicated to showcasing the finest Indonesian coffee while supporting local communities.
Recently, Ruang Kopi celebrated a major milestone by earning the Bronze Medal at the 2024 Golden Bean Awards, a remarkable honor that places their artisanal Indonesian coffee on the global stage. Here’s the inspiring story behind Ruang Kopi and why it’s a roaster you’ll want to discover through our coffee subscription.
The Beginnings of Ruang Kopi: A Vision Rooted in Culture and Community
In Indonesian, "Ruang" means "room," and Ruang Kopi is a space dedicated to sharing Indonesia’s finest coffee with the world. The journey of Ruang Kopi began with a love for Indonesian coffee and a mission to bring its distinct flavors to a wider audience.
Founded on values of sustainability and community, Ruang Kopi’s team works closely with local farmers to elevate Indonesian coffee culture while empowering the communities they source from.
This connection to the source isn’t just a business strategy—it’s the heart of Ruang Kopi’s identity. They believe that every cup of coffee tells a story, and through careful sourcing and artisanal roasting, they bring the story of Indonesian coffee to life.
For Ruang Kopi, crafting coffee isn’t just about achieving a great flavor. It’s about promoting fair trade, supporting sustainable practices, and creating a positive impact on the livelihoods of their farmers.
By fostering a collaborative environment with coffee growers, Ruang Kopi ensures that every bean is handled with care and integrity, aligning with the values we celebrate at Bright Bean Coffee.
The Bronze Bean Award: Recognition for an Exceptional Coffee
Ruang Kopi’s dedication to quality was recently recognized on a grand scale when they earned a Bronze Medal at the 2024 Golden Bean Awards. Known for being the world’s largest coffee roasting competition, the Golden Bean celebrates roasters who excel in skill, craftsmanship, and flavor.
For Ruang Kopi, this award was a huge achievement that validated their commitment to Indonesian coffee and their meticulous roasting techniques.

What Makes Ruang Kopi Stand Out
Ruang Kopi has earned its place among the best not only for its coffee but also for its values. Here’s what truly sets Ruang Kopi apart:
- Joy of Giving: A key part of Ruang Kopi’s mission is giving back. Through their “Joy of Giving” initiative, Ruang Kopi partners with Solar Chapter, a non-profit organization dedicated to providing clean water to remote areas of Indonesia. Ten percent of all purchases go directly to support Solar Chapter’s projects, allowing Ruang Kopi’s customers to make a tangible difference in Indonesian communities with every coffee purchase.
- Commitment to Quality and Freshness: At Ruang Kopi, there’s no compromise when it comes to quality. Every step, from bean selection to roasting, is guided by a commitment to excellence. Their process emphasizes freshness, so every sip delivers a pure taste of Indonesian coffee at its best.
