Better coffee at home starts with a ratio.
Weigh your coffee, weigh your water, and most of the guesswork goes. Pick your brewer and type either number — the calculator works out the other.
No scale? A level tablespoon of whole beans weighs about 6 g, and a mug holds about 250 ml.
Recipes by method
Each guide carries the ratio, the brew time and the fixes for a cup that tastes sour or bitter.
A pour-over that tastes the same every morning
One ratio, one grind setting and a three-minute routine. The recipe we teach at the café counter, written down.
The cafetière, done properly
The most underrated brewer in the cupboard. Four minutes, a coarse grind and one small step most people skip.
Dialling in espresso on a home machine
Dose, yield and time — the three numbers behind every shot, and how to move them when a new bag arrives.
How we decide which coffees make the shelf
Every coffee on the list was tasted blind against a dozen others first. What a cupping table is, and how to run one in your kitchen.
Get the grind right without a grinder
Tell us your brewer and we grind every bag for it on the morning it ships.
