El-Jefe House Espresso Blend

An unlikely partnership between a bold, chocolatey Brazilian and a complex, funky and fruity Colombian has created a truly balanced boss of a blend. Though it is a medium roast designed to be best for espresso, it also kicks like a mule in filter processes. Versatile like any good head honcho.

SERVING SUGGESTIONS:

ESPRESSO - For use in espresso-based beverages, we recommend an 18g dose of ground coffee to a 36-40g liquid espresso yield over 27-30 seconds.

FILTER - We think this blend works best in most filter methods with a 60g per litre (or 1:16.6˙) Ratio.
