Brew Note: Getting the Best From Specialty Coffee
Our coffee is specialty-grade, high-altitude, and artisan roasted. This means the way you brew makes all the difference in unlocking its natural, nuanced flavors.
- Water Quality (TDS): Use filtered or spring water with a balanced total dissolved solids (TDS) of 75–250 ppm. Water that’s too hard or too soft can mute flavor.
- Grind Size vs. Method: Match grind size to your brew style — coarse for French press, medium for drip, fine for espresso, etc. A mismatch can lead to bitterness or weak taste.
- Coffee-to-Water Ratio: Aim for 1:15–1:17. Outside this range, flavor balance can shift too far.
- Brewing Temperature: Water around 200°F (93–96°C) is ideal for proper extraction.
- Clean Equipment: Oils and buildup can affect clarity, so keep brewers and grinders fresh.
💡 If you’re new to specialty-grade coffee, it may take a little time (and some brew adjustments) to fully appreciate it. Unlike mass-market dark roasts, these beans highlight clarity, smoothness, and subtle tasting notes. Once dialed in, you’ll discover flavors you never knew coffee could have.
Step-by-Step Brewing Recommendations
1. Water: Elevate your coffee experience by using bottled or filtered water with some mineral content — it helps accentuate nuanced flavors.
2. Water Temperature: Heat water to 195–205°F (90–96°C). This range is optimal for extracting the rich flavors from our medium to medium-dark roasts.
3. Pre-Wet Filter: If using a filter, pre-wet it with hot water to remove paper taste and preheat your brewer.
4. Grind using a burr grinder (burr grinder highly recommended): The grind size greatly matters for each brewing method:
- For pour-over enthusiasts, use a medium-coarse grind to ensure a steady and flavorful extraction.
- If you prefer the convenience of a drip machine, follow the manufacturer's guidelines for the best results (medium grind size is usually optimal).
- For other brewing methods, such as French press or Aeropress, adjust the grind size accordingly to match the equipment's recommendations.
5. Brew: For pour-over aficionados, maintain a steady pour, evenly saturating the grounds for a consistent and balanced flavor profile.
If you're using a drip machine, simply follow its instructions for brewing. When using alternative methods, refer to suggested techniques for a customized brewing experience.
6. Sip and Savor: With your brew complete, take a moment to appreciate the depth and richness of your General Warfield's coffee. Indulge in the flavors and aromas crafted especially for your enjoyment.
