Recommended Brew Methods
Espresso — Our top recommendation
18g coffee in • 36–40g espresso out
Aim for 25–30 seconds
Expect caramel sweetness, chocolate body, and a smooth nutty finish.
Cortado — A perfect match
18g espresso dose • 36–40g espresso out
Add approximately 2 oz steamed milk
The smaller milk ratio keeps the caramel and chocolate flavors front and center.
Latte & Cappuccino
Pull a standard double espresso, then pair with steamed milk.
The nutty, caramel, and chocolate notes work especially well in milk-based drinks.
Automatic Drip
1:16 coffee-to-water ratio
Medium grind • 195–205°F water
Produces a smooth, balanced cup with plenty of caramel sweetness.
Pour Over
20g coffee • 320g water • 200°F
Medium-fine grind • Brew 2:45–3:15
Best for bringing out more of the floral notes while maintaining the chocolate and caramel foundation.
French Press
30g coffee • 500g water • 200°F
Coarse grind • Steep 4 minutes
Creates a fuller-bodied cup with stronger chocolate and nutty character.
