FAQs

Keep them in their bag, sealed, somewhere cool and dark. We roast on Mondays and ship on Tuesdays, so your coffee reaches you just days after roasting. You can brew filter right away. For espresso, the beans usually taste best after resting one to two weeks from roasting.

All our coffees are roasted for both filter and espresso. For filter, start with 60 g of coffee per litre of water, just off the boil. For espresso, start with a ratio of about 1:2, for example 18 g of ground coffee to 36 g in the cup. Grind just before brewing. Want to go deeper? Join one of our courses in Stuttgart.

Coffee doesn't go off, but it slowly loses aroma. Our bags are nitrogen-flushed, so sealed coffee keeps its flavour for months. Once a bag is open, brew it within about four weeks and keep it tightly closed, away from heat, light and the fridge.

Usually it's the recipe, not the beans. Sour or thin? Grind finer or brew a little longer. Bitter or dry? Grind coarser. Filtered water makes a big difference too. If it still isn't right, email us at info@taraba.coffee with your recipe and we'll help you dial it in.
