We have recently adjusted our grind options. With that in mind, we wanted to offer this primer so that you can choose the best grind-style for your preferred brewing method.

Whole Bean-- While we are happy to grind your beans, your coffee will stay fresher longer if you grind it as you go. There are many great home grinder options out there and many are surprisingly inexpensive.

Drip-- This is a medium grind that is the most versatile. Brewing methods using drip include home coffee drip machines, pour-overs (like Hario), Chemex, and AeroPress.

Espresso-- This grind is generally used for espresso makers. This includes home machines and stove-tip espresso pots. The grind is the most fine and is optimized to work with a high pressure extraction system.

Coarse-- Coarse is for percolators, french press, cold brewing, and sometimes AeroPress. Coarse is the biggest/loosest grind and enables water to move more freely steeping coffee for extraction.

All of the above, while generally true in the industry, also should be adjusted for preference. Feel free to experiment and please contact us if you have questions and we will be happy to work with you.

The Dark Side is anything and everything you love about our fair trade, organic, shade-grown Latin American coffees, but with some extra oomph to bring it to “the dark side.” This dark roast is full-bodied and smooth with chocolate notes and a mildly smoky aftertaste. Don't be afraid of the dark, y'all-- check out this coffee.

Available in a variety of grind options.

I Love The Dark Side Blend. I love deep rich coffee, and this stuff is wonderful. Rich taste and aroma and tastes wonderful hot or iced. If you like Dark Roast I would recommend this one. Amy
