Does Coffee Bop offer decaf coffee?

Brewing & Storage

What brewing parameters maximize flavor?

For optimal extraction:

• Grind fresh using a burr grinder
• Water temperature: 195-205°F (90-96°C)
• Coffee-to-water ratio: 1:16 (18g coffee to 288g water)
• Use filtered water free from chlorine

Pour-over methods enhance clarity and brightness, while French press emphasizes body and richness. Our Ethiopia Natural excels with pour-over, while Bali works beautifully for espresso.

Are Coffee Bop beans good for espresso?

Yes, our medium-dark beans are specifically developed for balanced espresso extraction. For best results, use a 1:2 brew ratio (18g coffee to 36g liquid), extracted in 25-30 seconds at 9 bars of pressure. Our Honduras and Bali beans excel in espresso applications.

How should I store coffee beans?

To maintain peak flavor:

• Store in an airtight container with a one-way valve
• Keep at room temperature (65-75°F) away from heat
• Avoid refrigeration which causes condensation
• Grind only before brewing to minimize oxidation
• Consume within 2-3 weeks of the roast date
