Description

B&W calls this coffee their ode to the origins of coffee. A washed Ethiopian coffee with citrus, honey, and chocolate notes which provides a really solid understanding of of B&W’s roasting chops. This is a delicious roast in a variety of brew methods, and a great place to start with B&W’s catalog. This particular lot comes from the Halo Hartume washing station, located in the Yirgacheffe region. This makes this roast a great intro to Ethiopian coffee, on top of being exemplary of B&W’s roasting style.

Recommended Brew Methods

Start with a 16:1 water-to-coffee ratio for your dosing. You’ll want a medium grind size for drip brewing that’s finer than what you’d use for pourover. Make sure you give the filter basket a shake to evenly distribute the grounds in the filter for best results. Turn on your brewer and it’ll do the rest!

For a French Press brew we recommend a 1:12 coffee to water ratio with coffee ground at the consistency of sea salt. Add your grounds to the brewing chamber. then add twice the water as there are grounds to the chamber. Stir gently and allow to bloom for about 30 seconds. Place the top on the press and allow it to steep for 4 minutes. Plunge the press slowly and enjoy!

Superautos make brewing espresso easy. All you need to do is add beans to the hopper and press a button to pull yourself a shot. If your shot is a bit sour you’ll want to dial the grinder a little bit finer and try again. If it’s bitter, dial it a little coarser. You can find instructions on how to do this for your machine in the manual. Just remember to avoid oily beans that can clog your superauto’s grinder!
