Frequently Asked Questions

Coffee Storage
How should I store my coffee beans?
Store your coffee beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place to preserve freshness. Avoid storing them in the refrigerator or freezer, as moisture can affect the flavor.
How long do coffee beans stay fresh?
Coffee beans are best used within two to three weeks of roasting for optimal flavor. Ground coffee should be used within one week of grinding.
Coffee Roast Levels
Why are most of your coffees medium roast?
Most of our coffees are medium roast because this roasting level balances acidity and body, highlighting the unique flavors of the beans while maintaining a smooth and well-rounded taste. Over-roasting coffee can burn the beans, leading to a bitter flavor and the potential loss of beneficial compounds. That’s why we avoid over-roasting to ensure both quality and taste.

Coffee Preparation
What is the best way to prepare my coffee?
 The best way to prepare your coffee depends on your personal preference and the type of coffee maker you use. Generally, we recommend using freshly ground coffee beans and clean, filtered water. Follow the instructions for your specific coffee maker for the best results.
 
What is the ideal water temperature for brewing coffee?
The ideal water temperature for brewing coffee is between 195°F and 205°F (90°C to 96°C). Water that is too hot can extract bitter compounds, while water that is too cool can result in under-extracted coffee.
Should I use filter or tap water for brewing coffee?
For the best taste, we recommend using filtered water to brew your coffee. Tap water can contain impurities and minerals that may affect the flavor of your coffee.
Brewing Methods
What are the different methods to brew coffee?
There are several popular methods to brew coffee, including:
 
1.Drip Coffee Maker: Convenient and easy to use, ideal for making multiple cups at once.
2.French Press: Known for producing a rich, full-bodied coffee.
3.Pour-Over: Allows for precise control over brewing time and water temperature, resulting in a clean, flavorful cup.
4.Espresso Machine: Produces strong, concentrated coffee, perfect for espresso shots and espresso-based drinks like lattes and cappuccinos.
5.Aeropress: Compact and versatile, great for making a single cup with rich flavor.
6.Cold Brew: Involves steeping coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period, resulting in a smooth, less acidic coffee.**
 
How do I make cold brew coffee?
To make cold brew coffee, combine coarsely ground coffee beans with cold water in a ratio of 1:4 (1 cup of coffee to 4 cups of water). Let it steep in the refrigerator for 12-24 hours. Strain the mixture using a fine-mesh sieve or coffee filter, and your cold brew is ready to serve. You can dilute it with water or milk to your taste.
What is the French Press brewing method?
The French Press method involves steeping coarsely ground coffee in hot water for about 4 minutes. After steeping, you press the plunger down to separate the grounds from the coffee. This method produces a rich, full-bodied cup of coffee.
Coffee Grinding and Measurements
How should I grind my coffee beans?
The grind size depends on your brewing method.
For example:
  • Coarse Grind: Suitable for French Press and cold brew.
  • Medium-Coarse Grind: Ideal for pour-over coffee makers like Chemex.
  • Medium Grind: Best for drip coffee makers.
  • Fine Grind: Used for espresso machines and Aeropress.
How much coffee should I use per cup?
A general guideline is to use 1 to 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per 6 ounces of water. You can adjust the amount based on your taste preferences.
 
How do I measure coffee for brewing?
Using a kitchen scale to measure coffee is the most accurate method. Measure the coffee in grams, using a ratio of about 1 gram of coffee to 15-18 grams of water for optimal extraction. If you don’t have a scale, you can use tablespoons or a coffee scoop.
Mugs
What are the best insulated coffee mugs?

When it comes to the best insulated coffee mugs, several factors contribute to their quality. Here's a guide to help you choose:

  1. Thermal Performance: Look for mugs made with double-wall vacuum insulation technology. This design keeps your beverages hot for longer periods, usually up to several hours, without compromising taste or temperature.

  2. Material: Stainless steel is a popular choice for its durability and ability to maintain temperature. Some mugs also come with a ceramic or plastic exterior, offering more options for customization and style.

  3. Leak-Proof Design: Ensure the mug has a reliable sealing mechanism to prevent leaks and spills, especially if you plan to carry it around during travel or commute.

  4. Size and Portability: Consider the size of the mug based on your preferred serving and how portable you need it to be. Some mugs fit standard cup holders, making them convenient for on-the-go use.

  5. Ease of Cleaning: Opt for mugs with wide openings or removable parts for easy cleaning. Dishwasher-safe options save time and effort in maintenance.

  6. Brand Reputation and Reviews: Research brands with a reputation for producing high-quality insulated mugs. Customer reviews and ratings can provide insights into real-world performance and durability.

Based on these criteria, popular choices for the best-insulated coffee mugs include Yeti, Contigo, Hydro Flask, and Thermos. Remember to prioritize your specific needs and preferences when selecting the perfect mug to enjoy your favorite hot beverages wherever you go.
