The Signature Pour-Over Recipe
To fully unlock the vibrant "raspberry popsicle and pomegranate" notes, we highly recommend brewing this light-medium roast with a manual drip method (like a V60 or Kalita Wave) using the following parameters:
- Dose (In): 15 grams of freshly, medium-coarsely ground coffee
- Water Temperature: $91^\circ\text{C}$ to $93^\circ\text{C}$ (to beautifully balance the bright lime acidity without over-extracting)
- Ratio: 1:15 (Yielding approx. 225g of liquid coffee)
- Target Profile: Crisp, juicy, and highly aromatic, prioritizing sparkling clean fruit flavors and a refreshing brightness.
Versatile Brewing Options
If you aren't using a manual pour-over setup, this sophisticated auction lot also performs beautifully across these precise methods:
- Siphon: Accentuates the clean, fully washed processing, yielding a tea-like clarity and intense aroma.
- French Press: Tames the sharpest edges of the acidity while boosting the body of the ripe cherry notes.
- Moka Pot: Creates an incredibly intense, tart, and punchy shot—perfect for those who enjoy a vibrant, fruit-forward concentrated brew.
Pro-Tips for Best Flavor
- Let it Rest: As a light-medium roast, these beans require proper degassing. For the most balanced flavor, let the whole beans rest in their sealed bag for 7 to 14 days from the roast date before brewing.
- Sustainable Storage: Keep your beans in our 100% recyclable, eco-friendly LDPE bag. Use the integrated resealable zipper and degassing valve, and store it in a cool, dark place. Never refrigerate your coffee, as moisture condensation will destroy the subtle fruit notes.

Care & Storage Instructions
To keep your coffee beans tasting at their peak flavor, shield them from air, moisture, heat, and light.
1. Use the Original Bag
The packaging is already designed for optimal preservation. It features a resealable zipper and a recyclable degassing valve that lets carbon dioxide escape without letting oxygen in. Squeeze out excess air and zip it tightly after each use.
2. Store in a Cool, Dark Place
Place the bag in a kitchen pantry or cupboard. Keep it away from heat sources like ovens, microwaves, or sunny windows. Additionally, avoid storing it near strong spices, as coffee beans easily absorb surrounding odors.
3. Avoid the Refrigerator
Never store your daily coffee in the fridge. The temperature fluctuations from opening and closing the door create internal condensation, which ruins the essential oils and stales the beans rapidly.
Tip: If you bought whole beans, let them "rest" in the sealed bag for 7 to 14 days from the roast date before brewing. This allows the beans to de-gas, ensuring a smoother extraction for your espresso.
