The Signature Espresso Recipe
To perfectly accentuate the heavy "dark chocolate and charcoal malt" depth, we recommend pulling this medium-dark single-origin bean using the following parameters:
- Dose (In): 18.5 grams of freshly ground coffee
- Yield (Out): 38 grams of liquid espresso
- Target Profile: Bold, thick, and deeply comforting, showcasing a heavy mouthfeel with a lingering, sweet, and low-acidity herbal finish.
Versatile Brewing Options
If you aren't using an espresso machine, this forgiving Grade 1 coffee performs beautifully across your favorite daily manual brewing methods:
- Moka Pot: Ideal for a dense, stove-top concentrate that mimics espresso and pairs beautifully with milk.
- Drip Coffee Machine: Great for an incredibly smooth, well-rounded, and satisfying morning mug.
- Siphon & French Press: Use a Siphon to elevate the clean complexity of its spicy oak and herbal notes, or a French Press to extract the bean's maximum body and milky texture.
Pro-Tips for Best Flavor
- Let it Rest: Allow your whole beans to rest in the sealed bag for 7 to 14 days from the roast date before brewing. This crucial degassing phase prevents uneven extraction and harshness.
- Storage: Keep the beans in their original packaging using the resealable zipper. Store it in a cool, dark pantry—never the refrigerator—to protect the rich, fragile oils from flavor-destroying moisture and condensation.
About The Beans
Mandheling is best known for its incredibly rich mouthfeel and nearly non-acidic flavor. Upon tasting, it offers a texture reminiscent of milk, accompanied by a thick, sweet coffee aroma. The finish features subtle herbal notes, which can be attributed not only to the geographical conditions but also to Indonesia's unique wet-hulling coffee processing method.Environmental Support

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.
