Mikro Seasonal Espresso Blend
Regular price
$54.00
This Mikro House Blend was created with smooth and rich coffee experience in mind. We selected and roasted coffees from Colombia, Ethiopia & Brazil to create a blend that is smooth with notes of milk chocolate, vanilla, roasted almonds and light floral and stone fruit tone.
This house blend is a crowd-pleaser and is also suitable to be brewed and enjoyed as a black coffee.
2021 Season Mikro Blend is roasted and blended with 2 direct traded coffees from Colombia and Brazil as well as a high quality Natural processed Ethiopian Coffee.

Recommended Cafe espresso recipe
21gr Ground Coffee
18 to 20 seconds on Sanremo at 93c temp
25 to 28 seconds La Marzocco at 93c temp
36 grams yield in the cup for milk drinks and 40g for black coffees
Recommended brew at home espresso recipe
18 to 20gr of ground coffee depending on basket size
Brew times may vary greatly due to brew pressure and grind size suited to your home machine.
32 to 36 grams yield In cup. Aim to ensure that your espresso is not watery. If it looks watery and tastes bitter you need to reduce how much yield (water passed through the coffee to brew espresso) results in the cup. For example if your final espresso weight is 45 grams and tastes bitter or smoky reduce your final yield to 34 to 38 grams to avoid potential over extraction of the coffee.
