Recipes provide a great starting point. Follow them for your first brew, then adjust to your taste preference. More coffee = stronger, less coffee = weaker. Shorter brew time = lighter extraction, longer = more extraction.
Not directly - each method requires different grind sizes and techniques. However, you can adapt recipes. If a recipe calls for AeroPress and you only have pour over, use medium grind instead of medium-fine, and adjust brew time. Taste will be different but still good.
Hot coffee is best consumed within 30 minutes. After that, flavor deteriorates. If keeping warm, transfer to an insulated carafe to minimize oxidation. Cold brew concentrate lasts 1-2 weeks refrigerated. Cold brew diluted should be consumed within 1-2 days.
Check these factors: Are your beans fresh? Is your grinder working properly? Is your water the right temperature? Is your technique consistent? Usually, one of these four factors is the culprit. Adjust one variable at a time to pinpoint the issue.
Yes, but results will be less flavorful. Pre-ground coffee loses aroma and flavor within days. If using pre-ground: use immediately when opened, store in an airtight container, use 10-15% more coffee to compensate for stale flavor.
Use our calculator to scale any recipe. Or do the math: multiply/divide all amounts (coffee and water) by the same factor. For example, double a recipe by doubling both coffee and water amounts. Keep the ratio (coffee:water) the same.
