Extraction

Recipes we would actually hand you.

Ratios you can change, a timer that follows the steps, and no gear you do not already own.

01 · FilterV60The house method. Two pours after a bloom. We want a clear cup and a drawdown that finishes before the bed goes dry and bitter.Ratio1:16Time2:45Temp94°C
02 · PressureEspressoA short recipe for lots that can take it — El Roble especially. Taste sweetness first. If it is only sharp, grind coarser before you change the ratio.Ratio1:2Time0:28Temp93°C
03 · ImmersionAeroPressStandard orientation, paper rinsed, a short steep and a gentle press. Lower water temperature keeps the naturals from tasting baked.Ratio1:15Time1:45Temp88°C
04 · TastingCuppingHow we decide what to buy and how to roast. Same grind, same water, no technique to hide behind. Break the crust at four minutes and taste as it cools.Ratio1:16.7Time12:00Temp96°C
