Seasonal blend coffee

Our Jolly Roger Blend is a tribute to the seasonality of coffee.

As the seasons change and new crops grow, so too do the flavor profiles of the premium coffees we buy. This year our Jolly Roger Coffee is made up of three distinctive coffees; two from Ethiopia and one from Brazil. We have combined the sweet fruit qualities of the two Ethiopians, allowing their sweetness to shine in the first sip. The Brazilian adds a rich chocolate note, smoothing out the fruits into a delicious syrupy espresso. The Jolly Roger premium roast coffee is sure to start your mornings the right way.

Espresso recipe we are using:

•⁠ ⁠⁠Ground coffee weight: 19.5g
•⁠ ⁠⁠Beverage weight: 38-39g yield
•⁠ ⁠⁠Brew Ratio : 1:2
•⁠ ⁠⁠Brew (extraction) time: 26-27 seconds
•⁠ ⁠⁠Water temperature: 92°C
•⁠ ⁠⁠Resting Period: Rested (27-35 days from roasting date)

*Note: As each machine is different, start with an amount of coffee that comfortably fits in your basket. We are using VST 20gm baskets for our recipes. For example, if your portafilter fits 16g of coffee, you need to down dose it as per our recipe. Dose and distribute carefully using a scale capable of reading to an accuracy of 0,1g.

Hot tips:
Make sure the portafilter is hot when you start brewing. If it’s not, run some hot water through it to heat it up. The espresso shot should first come out as drips and be heavy and oily, and eventually become a steady stream. Please use your grind setting to achieve the recommended brew time.
