About
Profile
This is the second year we have had coffee from the New Ngariama Farmers’ Cooperative Society’s Kiamugumo washing station. Last year we were thrilled with its jammy fruit flavour profile, and the new crop has the same characteristics. We visited the washing station during the last crop and saw the cooperative has built two new wooden conditioning silos next to the station’s main office. These silos are used to store parchment covered coffee to stabilise its temperature and humidity levels before final hulling, grading and preparing for export.

Grind Guide
Cafetière
A coarse grind also suitable for cold brew. We use the word cafetière, but this can also be referred to as a French press, plunger or press pot.
Aeropress slow
Suitable for making a long, filter style coffee, often brewed for a few minutes. Similar to our paper filter setting.
Filter
This is suitable for our paper filters and ceramic or plastic cones, along with other brands such as V60, Clever dripper and Melitta.
Stovetop
This is an espresso style grind suitable for use in hob top espresso pots such as a Bialetti or Grunwerg. Sometimes referred to as a moka pot.
Aeropress fast
This is also an espresso style grind ideal for brewing a short, concentrated, espresso style coffee in an Aeropress.
Domestic espresso
A fine grind for using in your home espresso machine. Grind requirements will vary depending on brand and model, but this setting aims to work for the majority of home setups.
