There are four main types of coffee beans: Arabica, Robusta, Liberica, and Excelsa. Arabica and Robusta are the most common, with Arabica being known for its smooth, mild flavor and Robusta for its strong, bold taste.
Light roast coffee beans are roasted for a shorter period of time, resulting in a lighter color and a more acidic, fruity flavor. Dark roast beans are roasted longer, giving them a darker color and a more bitter, smoky taste.
You can grind your coffee beans at home using a burr grinder or a blade grinder. Burr grinders provide a more consistent grind, which is essential for a balanced flavor. Blade grinders are more affordable but can produce uneven particles.
Store your coffee beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Avoid storing them in the fridge or freezer, as moisture can affect their quality. For the best flavor, use the beans within two weeks of opening.
A general rule is to use one to two tablespoons of ground coffee per six ounces of water. Adjust the amount to taste based on your preference for strength.
Arabica beans have a smooth, mild flavor with a complex aroma, while Robusta beans are stronger and more bitter, with a nutty or chocolatey undertone. Arabica beans are generally considered higher quality.
Single-origin coffees come from one specific region or farm, offering unique flavors and characteristics that reflect the local climate, soil, and growing conditions.
Fair trade coffee ensures that farmers receive fair wages and work in safe conditions. Organic coffee is grown without synthetic pesticides or fertilizers, promoting environmental sustainability and health.
Ground coffee stays fresh for about one to two weeks if stored in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Freshly ground coffee offers the best flavor, so it's recommended to grind beans just before brewing.

A French Press uses immersion brewing, where coffee grounds steep in hot water before being pressed through a filter. A pour-over uses gravity to pull water through the coffee grounds and a filter, providing a clean, crisp cup.
Use a fine grind size for espresso machines. The consistency should be similar to table salt to ensure proper extraction and a rich, balanced flavor.
Clean your coffee maker by running a mixture of equal parts water and white vinegar through a brewing cycle. Follow with two cycles of plain water to rinse. Clean removable parts with warm, soapy water.
Yes, you can use pre-ground coffee for a pour-over brewer. However, for the best flavor, we recommend grinding fresh beans just before brewing. Freshly ground coffee beans release more of their natural oils and aromas, enhancing the overall taste and experience of your cup. Additionally, using a burr grinder instead of a blade grinder can provide a more consistent grind size, which is crucial for a balanced extraction.
