Nucleus Coffee Tools is heading north this July, with the LINK sample roaster set to make its Swedish debut across a series of curated events hosted by Nordic Brew Lab.

From live roasting and guided tastings to exploratory bar takeovers, the Sweden Roast Tour will take place from July 22-24, and offers a hands-on introduction to the LINK and other Nucleus Coffee Tools products — including the NCD Pulse, Paragon and Paragon Espresso.

Each event will be co-hosted by Nucleus Coffee Tools Director, Sam Corra and Marketing and Events Manager, Jordan Montgomery, and will take place at Nordic Brew Lab’s Stockholm and Malmö venues. Together with the Nordic Brew Lab team, they will showcase how tools like the LINK can help roasters, competitors, and baristas push the boundaries of quality and expression.

“We’re incredibly excited to be partnering with Nordic Brew Lab to bring the LINK roaster to Sweden,” says Jordan.

“This region has a long-standing reputation for precision and transparency in coffee, and we’re looking forward to sharing how LINK’s profiling capabilities can support that approach — whether you’re roasting for competition or building a new flavour experience for customers.”

The tour will include an invitation-only LINK launch in Stockholm, two presentations on using the roaster in competition and professional settings (Stockholm and Malmö), and a “Green to Cup” interactive service takeover in Malmö.

Inspired by a bespoke cocktail bar, Green to Cup is a one-day bar takeover that brings the full spectrum of coffee preparation into one immersive experience.

Guests will choose from a curated list of specialty green coffees, roasted to order on the LINK, then brewed to spec using tools like the Paragon Espresso and NCD Pulse. Along the way, baristas will guide guests through the roasting and brewing decisions that shaped each cup. Any leftover coffee will be packed up and gifted to attendees.

“This tour is not just about a new tool—it’s about creating new experiences, new possibilities, and rethinking what’s achievable with small-scale roasting.”

“We’ve always wanted to explore what it means to offer made-to-order coffee at every level—from roast to brew,” says Jordan.

“This is one of the most exciting formats we’ve worked on, and we hope it sparks some new ideas for how people think about coffee service.”

With a shared belief in education, transparency and technical excellence, the collaboration between Nucleus and Nordic Brew Lab marks a natural step forward for both companies to share innovative tools and methods in the Nordic countries.

“We’ve been following the development of the LINK roaster for some time, and it’s exciting to now introduce it to our customers and community here in Sweden,” says Pierre Tymms, co-founder of Nordic Brew Lab.
