About

Minus Coffee is a San Francisco-based synthetic biology startup founded in 2020 by Costa Rican biotech entrepreneur Maricel Saenz, who previously co-founded Nextbiotics. The ten-person team ferments upcycled plant ingredients such as chicory root, dates, and lentils to brew bean-free coffee, cutting the water, carbon, and supply-chain impact of traditional coffee production. Minus launched its beanless cold brew in 2022 and has since expanded into instant beanless lattes.
