Hi Yossarian,
to my mind you will find the best coffee in Berlin at "Bonanza Coffee Heros", Oderberger Str. 35. The closest subway stop is "Eberswalder Str.", you have to take line U2. They use a Synesso...
Also a very good spot is "Cafe Double Eye", Akazienstr. 22 B.

Can confirm that Bonanza is brilliant, was there yesterday, one of the coffee-related high points of this Euro trip.
Also I recommend Coffein Bar on Alte Schönhauser Strasse a bit south of Torstrasse. Good espresso with Manaresi beans and they do latte art. Unfortunately unlike Bonanza it is not smoke free (at least until January when nonsmoking regulations are allegedly coming in Germany)

Nice to see three places in Berlin. Hope someone can comment them in geeks standards, in a bit details.

I can vouch that Coffein Bar in fantastic. And now that Berlin went smoke free (on Jan 1) it will be even better!
Make sure if you intend to order a cafe macchiato, you specify, because saying simply "macchiato" will yield a latte macchiato, which is a big glass of hot milk with a shot dumped in.
