The Kaffeemühlenhaus has a higher/larger roof pitch. There is often a dormer on the roof.
Yes, we would have liked a higher/larger roof pitch. That was one of our mistakes. We couldn't really imagine it properly, and in the architect's drawings, our roof appeared "steeper" than we perceive it now. Too bad, if I had known the house type "Kaffeemühle" beforehand, it would have been clearer to us and we could have shown a concrete example. Oh well, just one of our mistakes ... we live with it (and later live in it ;-) ). It occurs to me, during part of the construction phase I wanted out of frustration (?) just "any" house with a roof and the main thing was to move in and have it all be over. Now I am currently "nagging", I want to stop that again immediately. :)
