april Selection Beans (Filter, Espresso & Limited)
Before Brewing
Resting
We recommend you let your beans rest for at least 14 days before brewing. This is what we use in our stores and roastery, it offers a way better flavor clarity and balance in the cup.
Water
We use a reverse osmosis system, with a PPM usually between 20 and 50.
Particle Size
We do not measure the particle size of our coffees, all the Filter recipes you will find below are based on a Mahlkonig EK43, and the espresso recipes on a Mahlkonig E80.

Sustainable Profile Coffee & Organic Coffee Beans
About
For the coffees in our House Coffee line, as we aimed to create a standard, no matter the origin. This is why the recipes are identical for each coffee.
These coffees are made to be used on a large variety of equipment, you should of course adjust this recipe so it suits your tastes and what you aim to get out of each cup.
You are welcome to use the same base recipe on our Organic Coffee Beans.
The general resting recommendation is also of at least 14 days, however as they are slightly more developed, you can even wait longer to make sure the coffee has degassed as much as possible.
