How do you brew?
Tips for getting the most out of this coffee, by method.
Brewing this coffee
Pour-over is the best way to highlight the citrus and floral notes. Drip keeps it balanced for daily brewing, while AeroPress gives a fuller, more concentrated version of the same bright profile.
Recommended for this coffee
Pour-OverDripAeroPress
Drip / Pour-over
1:17 ratio (e.g. 30g coffee : 510g water) · Medium grind · 195–205°F water · 3–4 min total brew. Bloom for 30 sec with 2x coffee weight in water before pouring the rest.
French press
1:15 ratio · Coarse grind · 195°F water · Steep 4 minutes · Plunge slow and even. Pour off immediately — leftover grounds in the press over-extract.
Espresso
18g in / 36g out · Fine grind · 25–30 sec extraction · 200°F. Dial in grind first — finer = slower extraction.
Cold brew
1:8 ratio · Coarse grind · Steep at room temperature 12–18 hours · Strain through fine mesh or paper filter. Concentrate — dilute 1:1 with water or milk to serve.
Frequently asked questions
Quick answers to common questions about this coffee.
What does African Blend taste like?
Smooth and bright with floral, citrus notes and soft cocoa undertones. A lively medium roast, clean and aromatic with a gentle finish. It is USDA Organic, 100% Arabica, roasted small-batch to order in Oceanside, California.
What roast is African Blend?
It is a medium roast — balanced, with more body than a light blend but smooth, not bitter.
How much caffeine is in African Blend?
Typically around 90 to 120 mg per 8 oz brewed cup, like a regular full-caffeine coffee. Caffeine varies naturally with brewing method, serving size, and preparation.
Where do the beans in African Blend come from?
It is a blend of USDA Organic, 100% Arabica beans selected for this profile, roasted small-batch to order in Oceanside, California.
What is the shelf life of your coffee?
Unopened, in our original bags with the one-way freshness valve, our coffee has a best-by date of 18 months from the roast date. Once opened, plan to use ground coffee within 2-3 weeks and whole bean within 4-8 weeks for peak flavor, though it remains safe to drink well beyond that.
Should I buy whole bean or ground coffee?
Whole bean delivers better freshness and flavor, beans don't start oxidizing until they're ground. If you have a grinder, whole bean is the way to go. If you don't, ground coffee is convenient and stays fresh in the sealed bag for several weeks. We sell both formats for every flavor in this lineup.
