☕ Grind Guide
Choose the grind that matches your brewer. Each grind is dialled to bring out balance, sweetness and clarity.
| Grind Type | Best For | Texture | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Whole Freshest | Home grinders | Whole beans | Maximum freshness & full control. Grind right before brewing. |
| Espresso | Espresso machines | Fine (table salt) | Calibrated for a rich, syrupy shot and balanced crema under pressure. |
| Stovetop | Moka pot / stovetop | Medium-fine | A touch coarser than espresso for gentle pressure and chocolatey body. |
| Filter | Pour over, batch, Aeropress | Medium | Clean, balanced cups that highlight origin character. |
| Plunger | French press / immersion | Coarse (sea salt) | Slow, even extraction for a smooth, rounded brew. |
🔧 Brew Guide
| Method | Ratio | Brew Time | Water Temp | Pro Tip |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Espresso | 1:2 (e.g. 20g → 40g out) | 25–30 sec | 93–95 °C | If the shot runs fast, go finer; if it chokes, go coarser. |
| Stovetop (Moka) | ~1:8 | Until gentle gurgle stops | 90–94 °C | Start with hot water to reduce bitterness; remove from heat early. |
| Filter / Pour Over | 1:15 (20g → 300g) | 2.5–3.5 min | 92–94 °C | Pour in slow circles; aim for flat bed and even drawdown. |
| Plunger / French Press | 1:14 | 4 min | ~93 °C | Stir, steep, skim the crust, then press slowly for a cleaner cup. |
| Whole Beans | — | — | — | Grind immediately before brewing to capture aromatics. |
Water quality matters. If possible, use filtered water (~75–150 ppm). Taste and tweak: finer grind = slower/stronger, coarser = faster/lighter.
COFFEE INFORMATION
Decaf Rainbow is proof that decaf doesn’t mean compromise. Made using the sugarcane decaf process, it preserves the coffee’s natural sweetness and complexity while removing caffeine naturally.
Expect notes of marzipan and purple grape with a soft, rounded finish. Whether it’s your evening espresso or an all-day brew, it’s the kind of decaf that makes you forget it’s decaf.
