Brewing Perfection: Your Guide to Plunger Coffee with Kaxe Coffee

Welcome to the world of exquisite coffee brewing with Kaxe! We're excited to guide you through the process of making a rich and flavorful cup using a plunger. Follow these simple steps to elevate your coffee experience.

Ingredients:

  • Coarsely ground Kaxe Coffee beans
  • Hot water just off the boil
  • Plunger (French Press)
  • Stirring utensil
  • Timer

Step 1: Measure Your Coffee: Start with a ratio of 1:15 – one part coffee to 15 parts water. For a standard 16-ounce plunger, measure 1 ounce (about 28 grams) of coarsely ground Kaxe Coffee.

Step 2: Preheat the Plunger: Pour a small amount of hot water into the plunger and swirl it around. Discard the water to preheat the plunger and enhance the extraction.

Step 3: Add Coffee Grounds: Place the coarsely ground Kaxe Coffee into the preheated plunger.

Step 4: Pour Hot Water: Pour hot water (just off the boil) over the coffee grounds, ensuring they are fully saturated. Use a gentle, circular motion for even soaking.

Step 5: Bloom: Allow the coffee to bloom for 30 seconds. This is when the coffee releases gases, contributing to a more flavorful brew.

Step 6: Stir: After the bloom, gently stir the coffee with a wooden or plastic utensil to ensure even extraction.

Step 7: Attach the Lid: Place the lid on the plunger but don't press down just yet. Let the coffee steep for a total of 4 minutes.

Step 8: Press Down Slowly: After 4 minutes, press down the plunger slowly and steadily. Apply even pressure to avoid a too rapid extraction.

Step 9: Pour and Enjoy: Pour the brewed coffee into your favorite mug, savor the aroma, and experience the rich taste of Kaxe Coffee.

Additional Tips:

  • Experiment with grind size and coffee-to-water ratios to find your perfect brew.
  • For a stronger cup, let the coffee steep for an extra minute before pressing.
