If you are like most coffee drinkers, you worry about how long your favorite coffee will stay fresh. After all, it is that blend of aroma and taste that makes the coffee drinking experience so special and satisfying.
Every step of transforming green coffee into hot brewed coffee makes the flavor essence of the bean more vulnerable to destruction. Green coffees keeps for years, roasted coffees begin to lose flavor after a week, ground coffee an hour after grinding, and brewed coffee in minutes.
Serving Fresh Roast
Specialty Coffees
Canned ground coffee never measures up to fresh ground coffee. The coffees we advise you are known as "specialty coffees". The opposite of specialty is commercial coffee. Commercial coffee is typically roasted and packed in large plants. Specialty coffee is usually roasted in small stores, using traditional methods and technology, and is sold where it’s roasted. Our specialty coffees offer more opportunity to participate in the creation of your pleasure. Commercial coffees are fait accompli in tins or bags. The final, most important difference between commercial and our specialty coffees is the way they taste and smell. The best commercial blended coffees are quite good. The worst are atrocious.
The best specialty coffees, brewed freshly and correctly, are more than good; they are superb. Coffee is divided into two categories, Arabica & Robusta. Arabica coffee is the superior species from the coffeelover’s point of view. Arabica beans are the bean of choice in "gourmet" or "specialty coffees". Arabica coffee beans produce the rich flavor and body found in a good cup of coffee. Robusta lacks this flavor and body.
We bring for you the best Arabica coffees from exotic localities grown on diverse terrains and climate conditions. Our coffees are harvested at different times of the year, depending on where it is grown. We sample hundreds of different kinds of green coffee from all around the world. We buy our selections in bulk, roast and grind them fresh so that you experience only the very best qualities of our beans.
Grinding to Maintain the
Aroma and Flavor
The ideal coffee routine would be as follows: Buy the freshly roasted coffee whole beans. Put the beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, and take out only as much as you want to grind and brew immediately. However the way you grind your coffee is the first step influencing the final brew and superior grinding may not be possible at home by using cheaper equipment. On the other hand cheaper grinders don’t have coarseness settings, so it will take irksome experiments to establish how long to let your machine grind to achieve right coarseness (or fineness, depending on your point of view).
Our BUNN grinders use precision burrs to slice and cut (not crush) the coffee beans and deliver consistent grind distribution. Conical burr grinder is known as best for different kinds of coffee makers, percolators, espresso, or drip. We can help you to gauge your grind to suit your particular coffee-brewing method.
