This best brewing method is popular not only for its ability to highlight a specific coffee’s tastiest notes, but also for the experience it offers to customers when they order a beverage made with extra care and attention.

AERO-PRESS

It looks more like a science project, rather than a coffee brewer. But if you ask us; it’s the best thing that happened to coffee. And many people say it brews the best coffee they’ve ever tasted.

Rinse filter then add ground coffee. Add 200ml. of hot water quickly and stir for 10 sec. Plunge from the top and brew for 1 min. Stir again and press for 20 seconds

FRENCH PRESS 

The French press (coffee press) is the unofficial mascot of home brewed coffee; it’s been steeping coffee in households since before your grandparents were born, and it has a very loyal, cult following among the home barista community.

 

Add ground coffee into the Press and ½ of water. Bloom for 30 sec and stir gently. Add remaining water and let coffee bloom 4 min. Slowly press down & serve.

CHEMEX

When you first see a Chemex brewer, you may want to use it as a vase rather than a brewer, but there is a reason it looks the way it does: it makes excellent coffee, and it does it in style. 

Rinse filter and add ground coffee. Add 80ml of water and let coffee bloom for 30 sec. Stir and pour the remaining water.

SYPHON

Making coffee this way is unique as it comes; it’s a combination of brewing methods; a full immersion brew (as your coffee goes into the water) but also uses syphon action to create a great tasting cup.

  

Rinse filter and fill lower bowl with 240ml of water. Insert the filter and gently press to lock. Apply heat on lower bowl.  When coffee moves to upper bowl turn off heat and let coffee drops in the lower bowl then serve.
