Brewing Videos

Hario V60

You've probably all seen a local barista prepare a pour over. What you probably haven't seen, is a barista properly prepare a pour over. Similar to the Chemex you need to add very small amounts of water to maintain the slurry temperature. Enjoy!!

Technivorm

How to properly brew with the Technivorm Moccamaster.

We recommend purchasing an aftermarket shower head from Artisan Smith.

Also pick up an Essato base if you have a Baratza. They have discontinued it, so you have to order it ASAP.

Chemex

With a large surface area, it is difficult to brew a great cup of coffee in a Chemex. But with the correct method, you can produce a super-clean cup that highlights the subtle flavors in the coffee. The trick is adding very small amounts of 200-203 degree water, in order to maintain a slurry (grounds+H20) temperature greater than 195. If the slurry drops below 195, you will begin to extract undesirable flavors from the coffee.

AeroPress

There are hundreds of different methods to use the AeroPress. This is our favorite. In fact, this is how we make our coffee every morning!
