We have secured a very limited amount of this amazing Colombian coffee from our friends at Harvest Town Coffee.
This coffee was grown on in the region of Apia, Risaralda.
About the Producers:
Lina Restrepo - is a coffee farmer from Apía, Risaralda, recognised for her dedication and commitment to producing high-quality coffee. On her farm, Lina implements meticulous practices such as the rigorous selection of ripe cherries, extended fermentations, and controlled drying processes.
Tasting: Fruity, panela, chocolate, and apple wine. Bright citric acidity with a honey and fruit aroma.
Brewing: Not only is this coffee great for espresso, it is also one for the filter style fan. We recommend this beautiful coffee as a pour over, aeropress or plunger. Great in a stovetopper. (Richard also rates it in a long black).
Pour Over Recipe: please feel free to experiment (credit: Tetsu Kasuya )
Grind size: Coarse
Water Temp: 89 - 92 degrees Celsius
Ratio: 20g for 300 / 1:15
Brew time: 3min 30s
- Rinse filter & pre-heat pour over vessel of your choice.
- Pour in 20g of coarse-ground coffee
- Add 60g of water per pour 5 times, waiting 45s between each pour. This results in a total brew of 300g.
- Control the balance of the coffee by modifying the 1st and 2nd pours. For a sweeter brew, make a smaller first pour (e.g. 50g). For more acidity, a larger one will do the trick.
- Use either less or more water for the second pour to compensate for the difference (if any) in the first one.
- The 3rd, 4th and 5th pours can be tweaked to 2 larger 90g pours for a weaker brew, or into 4 smaller 45g pours for a stronger one.
