Use A Scale
Brew by weight not of volume. It allows for improved accuracy and consistency with no guessing.

STORAGE
Store coffee in an airtight container away from direct heat or sunlight. Avoid the fridge or freezer.

Brew Ratio
Start with a 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio for drip coffee and a 2:1 ratio for espresso and adjust to taste.

Grind It Right
A burr grinder is one of the most important coffee tools. It makes grind size uniform which is crucial.

Water Quality
Coffee is 98% water, so using good water is critical. When brewing, only use water you enjoy drinking.

Water Temp
Brew with water from 195-205º. If the water is too cold, coffee will be weak, sour, and flat.

Brewers
There are many ways to brew. Are you an immersion brewer or do you dig a pour over? Brew Guides

CLEAN IT
Dirty gear make gross coffee. Make sure to clean your gear with Cafiza and descale gear with Dezcal.

Adjustments
Coffee taste sour or flat? Try hotter water. Is it too strong? Increase your brew ratio.
