Curb Your Caffeinism: Half-Caf Blend

The best of both worlds, all the flavour of our single producer roasts, half the caffeine. Mocha Joe wishes he had these beans.

Don't worry, you'll love this roast too much to ever open a decaf spite store. 

• ESPRESSO: If want to try pulling this, go fine! Decaf need a fine grind and can sometimes be tricky to dial in.  

• POUR-OVER: We recommend grinding a touch coarser for pour over for this roast, and try to limit your pours to 1-2 (post bloom) and total time closer to 3 minutes.

• FRENCH PRESS: We recommend the James Hoffman method for this roast: 16.67:1 ratio // medium grind (not too coarse) // add water, do not stir, brew for 4 minutes // after 4 mins break crust gently, scoop everything that floats // let sit for another 5-8 minutes // don't press all the way, only use it as a filter at the surface of the brew.
