5 Tips for Brewing the Perfect Cup at Home

Elevate Your Home Brew

You don't need expensive equipment to make an incredible cup of ChocoBrew. Here are our top tips:

1. Water Temperature Matters

Use water between 195-205°F (90-96°C). Too hot and you'll scorch the chocolate notes; too cool and you'll under-extract the coffee.

2. The Right Grind

For our ground blends, the grind is already optimized for drip and pour-over. For French press, ask about our coarse grind option.

3. Fresh is Best

Use your ChocoBrew within 30 days of opening for peak flavor. Store in an airtight container away from heat and light.

4. The Golden Ratio

We recommend 2 tablespoons per 6 oz of water. Adjust to taste, but this ratio brings out the best coffee-chocolate balance.

5. Milk Matters

Oat milk and whole milk pair best with our blends. The fats help carry the chocolate flavors beautifully.
