Coffee Brew Principia
Many people ask us the principle behind the perfect brew, here is a guide that we have
put together based on our experience and the way the Jura brewing unit is programmed:
Rule 1:
Fresh Roasted Only |
Always use fresh roasted coffee. Coffee is best 6-8 hours after
roasting and will retain its aroma for up to 2 weeks, and flavour for about 2 and a half. Our tests on
freezing our coffees found that aroma is preserved for 2 months, while flavour just under three months.
See FAQ for more details about this |
Rule 2:
Fresh Ground |
Always grind coffee as you are about to brew it. Typically ground coffee looses half its aroma every
3 hours and half its flavour every 6 hours. The newer the grind the more life it has in your mouth |
Rule 3:
Delectable Water |
Use fresh, clean water that you enjoy drinking, the rule of thumb is that
you should enjoy drinking the water that you would add. Technically this normally means that it has a hardness
less than 10°(dH), and Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) parts per million of more than 50, less than 250 |
Rule 4:
Prepare Brewer |
Always prepare the coffee brewing equipment as you are about to brew. Make sure it is clean, ready and
at the correct temperature so that the equipment is eased into the brew, and at no more or no less than
5°C of the temperature you are going to brew the coffee at. If preparing an espresso
for the first time then run water through the brewer for at least 10 seconds, before you make you
favourite brew |
Rule 5:
Perfect Temperature |
Coffee brewing water should be just below boiling point (as measured at sea level), between 93
and 95°C is best. If the water temperature is too high, your coffee will taste bitter
(and for espresso brew have a reduced amount of crema) – if it is too low, the coffee will taste
acidic, flavourless and watery. |
Rule 6:
Match Extraction to Method |
Your brewing time must match the method you use to expose the grinds to the water. For pressure
based espresso 17 to 25 seconds is optimal to expose the flavours, and reducing the bitter after taste |
Rule 7:
Clean your Brewer |
After brewing dispose the grinds and rinse the filter completely at least. This helps with Rule 4 |
Rule 8:
Drink Immediately |
Coffee is most enjoyable in the first five minutes after being brewed.
These are the magic moments to enjoy your brew. Ever tried reheating coffee
- yuk! (i.e. like instant) |
