Best Coffee Brewing Methods

Get the best results using our coffee following the instructions from SCA. 

SCAA, the Specialty Coffee Association of America, has come out with their golden ratio, which is approximately. 1:18. So, therefore they recommend 55 grams of coffee for 1000 ml (grams) of water

Brewing Best Practices

Coffee-to-Water Ratio: To achieve the Golden Cup Standard, the recommended coffee-to-water ratio is 55 g/L ± 10%.

Coffee Preparation Temperature: To achieve the Golden Cup Standard, water temperature, at the point of contact with coffee, is recommended to fall between 200°F ± 5° (93.0°C ± 3°).

Elements & Device

Measurable elements:

Water: valid when brewing water meets SCA water quality standardRatio of Coffee-to-Water (55 g/L ± 10%)Grind/particle size distribution: matches the time of coffee-to-water contact

Equipment/brewing device:

Time of Coffee-to-water Contact: 1-4 minutes Fine, 4-6 minutes Drip, 6-8 minutes CoarseTemperature: 200°F ± 5° (93.0°C ± 3°)Turbulence (mixing action of water flowing through & around the coffee particles to achieve a uniform extraction of soluble material)

Filter media (least affect to brew flavor, body, time of contact & sediment less than 75 milligrams per 100 milliliters)
