How do you brew?
Tips for getting the most out of this coffee, by method.
Brewing this coffee
French press brings out the full body and dark-roast depth. Drip keeps it classic and consistent, while cold brew turns it into a smooth, low-acid dark roast over ice.
Recommended for this coffee
French PressDripCold Brew
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 Le Bean French Roast taste like?
Bold and full-bodied with dark, smoky depth and a smooth finish — a classic French roast that stays balanced rather than turning harsh or bitter. USDA Organic, 100% Arabica, roasted small-batch to order in Oceanside, California.
Is Le Bean a true dark roast?
Yes. It is a full dark roast with deep, smoky character and a smooth close — our classic French roast profile.
How much caffeine is in Le Bean French Roast?
Typically around 90 to 120 mg per 8 oz brewed cup. Despite the bold flavor, dark roasts have about the same caffeine as lighter roasts. Caffeine varies naturally with brewing method, serving size, and preparation.
Does a darker roast mean more caffeine?
No. Roast level has very little effect on caffeine; the difference between roasts is minor. Le Bean tastes bolder than a medium roast but has a similar caffeine level.
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.
