Brewing suggestions
Start here, then adjust to your taste. Follow any preparation directions on your package first.
- Best brew method
- Espresso for a concentrated cup or a milk drink. A paper-filtered pour-over is a good alternative for a lighter brew.
- Grind recommendations
- Medium for drip, medium-fine for pour-over, coarse for French press, and fine for espresso. Choose a matching pre-ground option or grind whole beans just before brewing.
- Water ratio
- For espresso, start with 18 g of coffee and aim for 36 g in the cup, a 1:2 ratio. For filter coffee, start with 20 g of coffee to 320 g of water, a 1:16 ratio.
- Flavor expectations by brew style
- Paper-filtered pour-over: a cleaner cup with more distinct tasting notes. French press: fuller body and a richer texture. Espresso: concentrated flavor that holds up in milk. Use the tasting notes above as a guide; your recipe changes how they come through.
