The Coffee Supreme Brew Guide brings together simple recipes and tips for some of the more well-known ways of making coffee. We'll have you making a great cup of coffee in no time. 02 BEFORE WE START SIX TIPS Tip #1 The most influential factor in the quality of your coffee is the beans themselves. Good beans, good cup. If you can't get your hands on a bag of Supreme, try something from your local specialty roaster. Make sure you buy coffee roasted for your brew method. Tip #2 For the best results, we suggest using coffee aged to the roaster's recommendation. This can vary so you should ask them what they suggest. If you have whole beans then make sure to grind them just before brewing. Tip #3 If you've gone to the trouble of buying some nice brew gear, we highly recommend investing in a good grinder to go with it. Tip #4 To follow these recipes, we'd also recommend using a timer and a good set of digital scales to weigh both your coffee and your brewing water. Tip #5 To help prolong the freshness of your coffee keep it away from light, air and temperature extremes (challenging if you're ascending Everest, but probably not your biggest problem). Tip #6 Lastly, clean up your brew gear after each use, no matter what it is, glass, plastic, gold. Coffee oils stick to everything. Keep clean equipment for tasty brews every time. COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE THE GOLDEN RATIO Just like with cooking, if you can follow a simple recipe, you can easily produce something tasty. In most cases, we base our recipes for each brew method on the SCAA's* Golden Ratio for brewing filter coffee. We recommend a ratio of 60g of freshly ground coffee for every litre of water. This is a good place to start, but you can fine-tune your recipe to suit your taste. Check out the table below -- here you'll find some suggested brewing ratios of hot water to ground coffee for you to use. These ratios are a great starting point. However, you might like to tweak these numbers to suit your taste. WAT E R 250ml 500ml 750ml 1L COFFEE 15g 30g 45g 60g 1.5L 90g 2L 120g * Specialty Coffee Association of America -- regarded by many as the international authority on coffee. 03 THE GRIND RECCOMENDED GRINDERS PORLEX TALL COFFEE GRINDER A portable, hard-wearing coffee grinder. HARIO COFFEE MILL - CERAMIC SLIM An ultra-portable hand-powered coffee grinder. SHOP NOW SHOP NOW COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE GRIND SETTINGS If your coffee is either over or under extracting (brewing too slow or too fast), the chances are that you have the incorrect grind for your brew method. To start you off, here are three of the common grind settings we refer to through this Brew Guide: Fine Like flour. Best suited for espresso and stovetop. Medium Like table salt. Generally suited to paper filters such as AeroPress. Coarse Like raw sugar. Generally suited to mesh filters such as a plunger. 04 THE STOVETOP METHOD COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE BIALETTI STOVETOP This recipe is designed for any stovetop coffee maker. SHOP NOW ABOUT The humble Stovetop is our go-to for making fresh Italian-style coffee at home. Invented in the roaring 20s, Alfonso Bialetti's stovetop espresso machines are, in our opinion, the best on the market. They're easy to use and produce rich, full-bodied coffee in minutes. Hot Tip If you like milk with your coffee, you can include this in the top compartment before putting it on the heat. Pro Tip Never use detergent to clean your stovetop. All it needs is hot water and a nice sponge to help extend the life of the seal. RECIPE 3 Cup Recipe WAT E R 130ml at 96°C (205°F) COFFEE DOSE 17 medium ground BREW TIME 5 mins 6 Cup Recipe WAT E R 270ml at 96°C ( 205°F) COFFEE DOSE 28g coarse ground BREW TIME 6 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Fill the bottom chamber with hot water. Hot water reduces the brewing time and less chance of the coffee over-extracting. Step Two Evenly spread your favourite Supreme espresso to the top funnel. Do not pack down. Step Three Screw the top section tightly to the base and place on high heat with the lid open. Step Four Once the coffee starts to extract, reduce the heat to medium and remove from heat immediately once the pot is full. Voila, you now have authentic Italian-style espresso at home. 05 THE PLUNGER METHOD COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE BODUM PLUNGER This recipe is designed for the Bodum Chambord Plunger, but can be used on any plunger. SHOP NOW ABOUT This oft-neglected but ubiquitous brewing device, can be found at the back of almost everyone's kitchen cupboard. The plunger or `french press' doesn't seem to have been swept up in the modern filter brewing zeitgeist but definitely deserves a place in the conversation alongside your Chemex and AeroPress. It's tried and true. Press with pride. Hot Tip Heat your plunger with hot water before brewing. This will help achieve a more stable brew temperature. RECIPE 3 Cup Recipe WAT E R 330ml at 96°C (205°F) COFFEE DOSE 20g coarse ground BREW TIME 5 mins 8 Cup Recipe WAT E R 850ml at 96°C ( 205°F) COFFEE DOSE 51g coarse ground BREW TIME 5 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Place the coffee grounds in the plunger and pour half the brew water on top. Step Two Dunk the floating grounds with a spoon to ensure all the coffee is wet. Step Three Add remaining water and plunge down slightly to keep all coffee grounds immersed. Put the timer on for 5 minutes. Step Four At 5 minutes, finish plunging the coffee grounds and immediately pour the finished brew into cups or a warmed vessel. And, you've made yourself a delicious pot of Joe. 06 T H E G O L D F I LT E R M E T H O D COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE FRIELING GOLD COFFEE FILTER This recipe is designed for the Freieling Gold Coffee Filter. SHOP NOW ABOUT Freiling's Gold Filter offers convenience and consistency every time you brew your coffee. The magic is in the 24-carat goldplated micro-foil metal filter that allows coffee to develop its full flavour without influencing the taste during the filtration process. Perfect for those who do not want to compromise on taste while wanting as little fuss as possible. This is as easy as it gets for great coffee making. Hot Tip If your coffee brews faster or slower than what is suggested in the recipe, try adjusting the grind (finer if too fast or coarser if too slow). If you are using really fresh coffee, grind it a little further in advance to allow the coffee to de-gas. RECIPE 1 Cup Recipe WAT E R 250ml at 93°C / 199°F COFFEE DOSE 15g medium ground BREW TIME 2-3 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Start with placing the gold filter brewer on top of a decent sized mug. Step Two Put your ground coffee into the bottom mesh compartment. Step Three Place the infuser into the bottom compartment and add water, filling up to the black line near the top lip. Step Four Allow the water to flow through until the infuser is empty. Step Five Remove the brewer once the infuser is drained of water. And, you've got yourself a delicious cup of coffee. 07 THE AEROPRESS METHOD AEROBIE AEROPRESS This recipe is designed for the Aerobie AeroPress. SHOP NOW COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE ABOUT The AeroPress was developed by American inventor Alan Adler who conducted hundreds of brewing experiments in search of the perfect cup. He concluded that proper temperature, total immersion and rapid filtering were key to extracting the best flavour from coffee. This method is a favourite amongst travellers and the time poor due to its compact design and usability. Hot Tip You'll notice the instructions that come with an AeroPress are a little different. We have found that the inverted method gives the best results. However you can use the same recipe with the standard brewing technique. RECIPE 1 Cup Recipe WAT E R 200ml at 96°C / 205°F) COFFEE DOSE 14g medium ground BREW TIME 2 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Fit the plunger into the chamber, so the rubber seal lines up with the top of the number 4. Then stand it upside down with the hexagonal end facing up. Step Two Place an AeroPress paper filter into the black diffuser disk and rinse with hot water. Step Three Place ground coffee into the chamber and add the 200g of water. Give the grounds and water a stir to ensure all the grounds are wet. Lock disc and filter into place on top and let it brew for 90 seconds. Step Four Carefully turn the AeroPress over onto your mug and press the plunger down until all water and air has been expelled. And you're done! 08 THE CHEMEX METHOD COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE CHEMEX CORPORATION CHEMEX This recipe is designed for the Chemex. SHOP NOW Hot Tip Try to add the water in one continuous pour, keeping the water level topped up until it has all been added. If your coffee brews faster or slower than what is suggested in the recipe, try adjusting the grind (finer if too fast or coarser if too slow). ABOUT The Chemex brews an exceptionally clean cup, much of which is owed to its heavy paper filter, which delivers a purity of flavour by allowing the best aromatics to pass while trapping undesirable elements in the paper. The Chemex is perfect for brewing filter coffee for a small group. RECIPE 3 Cup Recipe WAT E R 350ml at 96°C (205°F) COFFEE DOSE 21g medium ground BREW TIME 3:304 mins 8 Cup Recipe WAT E R 675ml at 96°C (205°F) COFFEE DOSE 41g medium ground BREW TIME 4:305 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Heat the entire Chemex by filling it with hot water, then empty it. Step Two Place the Chemex paper filter cone in the top with the double layered side of the filter on the side of the spout. Rinse thoroughly with hot water. This will remove paper taints and heat the vessel at the same time. Step Three Carefully pour out the rinse water ensuring the filter stays in place. Step Four Drop your ground coffee into the filter. For every 1g of coffee add 2g of water. The hot water will react with the fresh grounds and expand, this is called the `bloom'. Step Five Stir the bloom just enough to ensure all the coffee is wet. Step Six Slowly add the remaining water, pouring in small circles over the centre of the coffee. Fill to the top of the Chemex (the top of the filter may sit slightly above the glass so be careful not to overfill). Step Seven As the water draws down, gently stir. A slight dome should form in the coffee bed. You're done when the filter stops dripping. And you're done! 09 T H E C O N E F I LT E R M E T H O D COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE ABOUT The origins of the cone filter date back to the turn of the 20th Century, when Melitta Bentz received a patent on her first filter design in Berlin, Germany. Later in the 1930s, Melitta's design was revisited with the tapering of the filter device to create the now ubiquitous cone shape. HARIO V60 This recipe is designed for the Hario V60. SHOP NOW Hot Tip As with the Chemex method, try to add the water in one continuous pour, keeping the water level topped up until it has all been added. If your coffee brews faster or slower than what is suggested in the recipe, try adjusting the grind (finer if too fast or coarser if too slow). RECIPE 1 Cup Recipe WAT E R 250ml at 96°C ( 205°F) COFFEE DOSE 15g medium ground BREW TIME 22:30 mins 2 Cup Recipe WAT E R 500ml at 96°C (205°F) COFFEE DOSE 30g medium ground BREW TIME 3 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Place the cone on top of the vessel you want to brew coffee into. Put the paper filter in the cone and rinse the paper filter thoroughly with hot water this heats the cone and the collection vessel. Tip out the rinse water. Step Two Drop your ground coffee into the filter and pour 2g of your brew water for every 1g of coffee. The hot water will react with the fresh grounds and bloom (expand). Step Three Stir the bloom just enough to ensure all the coffee is wet. Step Four Now slowly add the remaining water pouring in small circles over the centre of the slurry. Fill to the top of the cone. Step Five As the water draws down, gently give a final stir following the downward direction of the rifled sides. A slight dome should form in the coffee bed. Once the filter has stopped dripping the coffee is brewed. And you're done! 10 THE MOCCAAMASTER METHOD COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE TECHNIVORM MOCCAMASTER This recipe is designed for the Moccamaster. SHOP NOW Hot Tip We recommend using the Technivorm Moccamaster. For other machines use the golden ratio to determine a coffee dose. To enhance extraction some machines call for agitating the coffee once it's wet (sneak this in after step 4). ABOUT There are a plethora of filter machines on the market now that produce beautifully brewed coffee, rather than the stewed office swill that they are more commonly associated with. This new generation, like the Technivorm Moccamaster, heats and delivers water in a far more accurate fashion than their predecessors, making them an excellent and fuss-free option for making a whole lot of great coffee. RECIPE 1.25L Recipe WAT E R 1.25L cold COFFEE DOSE 75g medium ground BREW TIME 6:30 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Preheat the thermos jug with hot water. Step Two Fit the filter inside filter pan and distribute ground coffee evenly into the filter then place into the machine. Step Three Fill water tank with 1.25l of fresh, cold, filtered water. Step Four Empty out thermos jug, insert `brew through lid' and place underneath the machine. Step Five Turn machine on and allow coffee to brew through into the jug. Step Six Once the brew cycle has finished, turn machine off, take out the brewing lid and replace with screw on lid for serving. And you've got yourself a fresh pot of coffee. 11 THE NO GEAR METHOD COFFEE SUPREME BREW GUIDE ABOUT Caught you at your ma `n' law's with naught but a bag of Coffee Supreme and no gear to speak of? No worries, let's get creative... RECIPE THE NO GEAR METHOD This recipe is designed for when you don't have any of the above -- we'd reccomend and good glass vessel like a Pyrex jug. Hot Tip Sometimes you've just got to do what you can. RECIPE Recipe WAT E R 96°C ( 205°F) COFFEE DOSE Use the Golden Ratio (1:17). So that's 12g of whole bean coffee, medium ground, for every 200ml of water BREW TIME 35 mins INSTRUCTIONS Step One Place the coffee grounds into your vessel, a large cup, small bowl, or a server should do the trick. Step Two Pour hot water over the grounds, ensuring all coffee is fully saturated, and the vessel is filled with the correct amount of water. Let it steep for no less than 3 mins and no longer than 5 mins. Step Three Take a spoon and scrape off any grounds that have floated to the of the water. Step Four If you can find a fine tea strainer in the house, then pour the coffee through this, and into your mug, to remove more grinds. And that's how you conjure a coffee with no gear. 12 Need coffee? Or brew equipment? Or socks? Shop with us online. COFFEESUPREME.COM
