ABOUT
Nano Lot Coffee Roasting is an event company for everything coffee, and the organiser of the Kopi Panggang International Championship.
It started with a group chat.
KPC started with a bunch of home and industrial coffee roasters from across Malaysia who came together online during the MCO to share roasting knowledge, hunt for green bean deals and buy coffee gear in bulk.
Since then we've hosted meetups all over Malaysia, brewing and swapping our roasted beans. Coffee is all about sharing, and organising roasting events is our way of bringing more local roasters in for serious fun and growth.
In 2026 the championship stepped off the internet: KPIC runs as a physical season across countries, each station with a local co-organiser, the same rules, the same machine model and the same judging standard.
