Coffee is a language in itself.

— Jackie Chan

  1. Choose Quality Beans

    Start with freshly roasted, high-quality beans. Grind them just before brewing for best flavor

  2. Measure Properly

    Use a scale to measure your coffee and water. A good ratio is about 1:15 (1g coffee to 15g water).

  3. Use the Right Water Temperature

    Heat water to around 90–96°C. Too hot or too cold can ruin the extraction.
