Brewing Techniques

  1. Drip Coffee Maker:

    • A convenient choice for a balanced and consistent brew. Use a medium grind to bring out the coffee’s vibrant acidity and smooth finish.

  2. Pour-Over (Hario V60 or Kalita Wave):

    • Enhances the clarity of the coffee’s flavors, showcasing its brightness and velvety texture. Use medium-fine grind and focus on an even extraction.

  3. Aeropress:

    • A great single-cup method to highlight the blend’s balance and energy. Experiment with a 1-1.5 minute brew time for a concentrated, flavorful cup.

  4. Cold Brew:

    • For a refreshing twist, cold brew emphasizes the roast’s smoothness and subtle undertones while toning down its acidity. Steep for 12-16 hours for optimal flavor.

  5. French Press:

    • A full-immersion method that creates a slightly heavier body, making the coffee feel heartier while still capturing its vibrant nature. Brew for 4 minutes.

  6. Espresso Machine:

    • While unconventional for a medium roast breakfast blend, espresso lovers can enjoy Bone Rattler’s bright acidity and smooth crema as a morning pick-me-up.
