BREWING GUIDES
Specialty Coffee is a process and every step demands attention to detail.
GOLDEN RULES
KEEP IT FRESH
Use recently roasted coffee, ground immediately before brewing.
NOT TOO HOT!
Brew with water heated to between 195º to 205º Fahrenheit.
PERFECT RATIO
Use one part coffee to 15–18 parts water. If you’re adjusting the ratio for the first time, start in the middle of this range and adjust to taste.
STORAGE IS KEY
Keep whole-bean coffee in an airtight container, out of direct sunlight, and away from heat and moisture.
Grind Size Matters!
Different brewing devices require different particle sizes based on their geometric shape and the flow of water.
Generally, brew methods with shorter contact times, like espresso or AeroPress, require a finer grind size; longer, slower brew methods, like French press, work best with a coarser grind.
