Moondust

A bold, full-bodied dark roast with rich bittersweet chocolate and toasty flavors. The extended roasting develops deep, robust characteristics creating a traditional coffee experience with pronounced roasted notes and satisfying body.

Recommended Brew Methods

Pour Over (Hario V60 or Chemex) — Ideal for showcasing delicate florals and nuanced complexity. Brew time 3–3.5 minutes at medium-fine grind.

French Press — Use a coarser grind and steep for 4 minutes. This method emphasizes body and richness while maintaining clarity.

AeroPress — A versatile option for precision brewing. Use medium-fine grind, 1:15 ratio, and 90-second steep for a clean, balanced cup.

Espresso — Pull a double shot with medium-fine grind and 25–30 second extraction. Expect syrupy body with pronounced floral notes in the crema.

Turkish Brew — For traditional preparation, use extra-fine grind and brew in a cezve over low heat for 3–4 minutes, stirring gently.

Brewing Parameters

Grind Size: Medium-Fine (adjust coarser for French Press, finer for espresso and Turkish)

Water Temperature: 198–202°F (92–94°C) — preserves floral aromatics and prevents over-extraction

Coffee-to-Water Ratio: 1:15 standard (approximately 2 tablespoons per 6 oz of water)

Tasting Protocol

Brew at smaller volumes (6–8 oz) to maintain optimal extraction ratios. Allow the cup to cool gradually — jasmine, peach, and bergamot notes intensify as temperature drops. Taste across multiple temperature points to experience the full flavor arc.

Pairing & Storage

Best enjoyed solo to fully appreciate complexity. Light pairings include white chocolate, fresh stone fruit, or mild honey cake.

Store in an airtight container away from heat, light, and moisture. Freeze for extended preservation. Consume within 2–3 weeks of roast date for optimal flavor expression.
