Grinding Larger Coffee Beans for Espresso: Larger coffee beans may require a slightly finer grind to ensure proper extraction. A finer grind allows water to flow through the grounds more evenly, helping you achieve a balanced and flavorful espresso shot. Adjusting the grind size ensures the best possible extraction, even with larger beans. This will also help maintain a consistent grind size.

Espresso Recipe: 1:2 coffee-to-espresso ratio with a 25-30 second extraction.

Plunger Recipe: Use a 1:12 coffee-to-water ratio. Add 30 grams of coffee to your plunger. For 350 ml of water, pour 40 ml of hot water (90-95°C) over your coffee grounds, stir, and let it bloom for 30 seconds. Then, add the remaining water and wait for 4 minutes. Finally, press the plunger down.

Cold Brew Coffee Ratio:

• Strong Brew (1:8): 125 grams of coffee to 1 liter of water.
• Milder Brew (1:10): 100 grams of coffee to 1 liter of water.

Mix coffee and water in a jar, refrigerate for 12-24 hours, strain, and serve over ice. Enjoy!

Krakatau is a caldera in the Sunda Strait between the islands of Java and Sumatra.

Krakatau volcanic eruption in 1883 was one of the most powerful explosions in recorded history and is still active till this day.

The coffee is grown in high-altitude volcanic soils, which imparts a unique flavour to the beans.

You possibly could be tasting the unique flavour of volcanic ashes which covered the entire area when Mt. Krakatau erupted.
