Andraschko Coffee will always have a special place in my heart: their "Wiener Kaffeehaus Mischung" Espresso blend is the coffee that actually made me like coffee. Andraschko is a family-run speciality coffee roastery whose founders frequently travel to see the coffee farmers they work with and to discover new coffees, a philosophy they call "from crop to cup" which I think deserves to be supported.
There is a list of retailers on their website, however I highly recommend visiting them at their roastery in Tempelhof. The location is in an industrial area about a 25 minute walk away from the u-bahn station Ullsteinstraße. To be quite honest I think it is a little ugly from the outside – I nearly walked past it the first time I visited – but don't be fooled. Once inside you will have a view on the whole production process and there is usually a delicious smell of roasted coffee in the air. The last time I was there I was able to taste several different blends, so if you are unsure which one to buy do not hesitate to ask. All employees I have met so far are very friendly and enjoy talking about all aspects of coffee and you can buy all sorts of coffee making equipment you are still missing.

"Universität der Künste (UdK)" in Berlin (or the university of arts) makes me wish I could forget my city so I could experience it again for the first time

I suggest stopping by the Berlin Art Market by the Zeughaus to pick up a locally created art piece. Since the market is located in the center of Museum Island it's easy to reach.
