Frequently asked questions
What's the one thing you wish every coffee lover knew about brewing the perfect cup at home?
For the perfect cup, remember these three crucial elements: water quality, roast intensity, and the quality of your Juan Chico coffee beans.
If you could only recommend three brewing methods to a beginner, what would they be and why?
1. French Press - It’s simple, forgiving, and doesn’t require a lot of technique or special gear. 2. Pour Over (e.g., Hario V60 or Chemex) - Teaches control over variables like grind size, water temperature, and pour rate. 3. AeroPress - Super versatile, fast, portable, and nearly foolproof once you get the hang of it.
☕ 1. Light Roast
Taste: Bright, acidic, fruity, floral, more complex. Best for highlighting origin characteristics.
☕ 2. Medium Roast
Taste: Balanced acidity and body, notes of chocolate, nuts, mild fruit.
☕ 3. Dark Roast
Taste: Bold, smoky, bitter-sweet, low acidity, heavier body
What are the most common mistakes people make when brewing coffee, and how can they avoid them?
Avoid these common pitfalls: 1. Using the Wrong Water, 2. Incorrect Coffee-to-Water Ratio, 3. Grind Size Not Matching the Brewing Method, 4. Water Temperature Too High or Too Low. Paying attention to these details will significantly improve your coffee.
