THE DEETS

This coffee comes from The Frinsa Collective, which is run by Wildan Mustofa and his family in Java. They are known for experimental processing, a departure from the traditional wet-hulled process the region is known for. The ripest coffee cherries are hand-picked, rinsed, sorted, and depulped right after being delivered. The coffee is then fermented anaerobically for 18 hours and dried on patios for 7-10 days to a 10-11% moisture level. The result is an intensely sweet and funky coffee. Look for big, fruity flavors with a slight boozy note and a deep, fudgy finish.

BREW IT RIGHT

  • Go with a 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio for brewed coffee and 2.5:1 water-to-coffee for balanced espresso.

  • Start with a slightly finer grind than usual. This coffee flows quickly but does well with shorter contact times.

  • A strong, fast V60 might make your head explode. A 15:1 ratio and a 3-minute brew makes a super juicy cup.

  • Milk-based drinks using Java as espresso will taste like cheat day desserts. Stick with faster shots.

REST IN PEACE

As coffee rests, the volatility of the roast mellows, allowing it's natural sweetness and varietal character to shine. We rest washed coffees 5-10 days, naturals for 10-15 days, and experimentals for 15-30 days.
