Description
The Roasting
We treat this coffee at Matter of Taste in a way that is very typical to a light roast. The batch is heated to dry out the beans completely and then quickly progress to first crack. After the excitement of the colour change, we let the sugars inherent to the bean caramelized. After a short time, the crackling of the roasting is finished and we are left with a slightly puffed, light-coloured bean that highlights all of the delicious flavours created in the growing and processing of this coffee.
Brewing Instructions
Our baristas recommend a pour over for this coffee although we have found it to be enjoyable with our drip coffee as well. Try to bump up the coffee ratio a little and a coarser grind to emphasize the flavour.
