I am recruiting developers for my team, and there is this nice candidate that I cannot make an offer to now, because I have proceeded with another candidate.

However, in the future, we may have more open positions, and I would like to contact him, and I hope I have given a good impression, and maybe they can accept the offer, let's say 6 months from now.

What is the best way to reject this candidate and keep the doors open?

Tell him what you just told us: that the only reason you did not go further with him on this particular opening was unfortunately, a matter of poor timing - somebody else was almost finished with the process. Tell him that you're regularly receiving news of job openings and that you'll be glad to contact him the minute you see a fit.
