Meet the cat

Bean

Beans showed up at our friends new house. She was sweet and friendly.  My friend’s small children were not old enough to be able to kindly and gently or respectfully handle a kitten. My husband was wanting an outdoor cat. He said if the kitten got into our car she could come home with us. Beans hopped right into our car and lived on our back porch until we could get her into the vet. Our entire family fell in love with this playful and loving kitten.

The coffee on this page is named after Bean.

The coffee

What it tastes like.

We wanted to design a versatile espresso blend that didn’t require too much fuss. We think that if your espresso is too opinionated and requires too many adjustments on your machine, it may not be worth it. We designed Bean’s Espresso Blend to be super smooth on its own, and to complement a milky beverage.

You'll like it if
you pull espresso at home and don't want to fuss with your machine every morning.
Maybe not if
you want a dark, punchy shot that cuts hard through milk; that's Mooney's.

Getting it right

How we'd brew Bean.

Our philosophy? If it tastes good, it is good. These are some of our guidelines for how to get a great cup, but don't treat them as gospel. Treat them as a suggestion.

  • We'd start hereEspresso

    We generally recommend shooting for a 2.5-3:1 ratio. This means if you make your puck 18g of coffee, you should shoot for between 45 and 54g of espresso in the cup. Tamp your puck using roughly 35 lbs of pressure, make sure the puck is not on a slant after tamping. Ideally the extraction should last between 25 and 35 seconds; if the pull takes too long, grind coarser, if it is too short, grind finer

  • Pour Over

    Place a filter in the cone, make sure to pre-wet the filter. Add medium-fine grounds, and wet them with a small amount of hot water to bloom for 30 seconds. Pour the rest of the water in slow, spiraling circles over 2–3 minutes and let it drain through.

  • French Press

    Add medium-coarse ground coffee to the carafe, pour in hot water (around 200°F), and stir. Let it steep for about 4-6 minutes, then press the plunger down slowly and serve right away. Grind finer for more strength.

Start with 1 oz of coffee per 20 oz of near-boiling water

Too weak
Add coffee before you add time. Longer brewing makes it bitter, not stronger.
Too bitter
Grind a little coarser, or let the water sit thirty seconds after it boils.
