Roasted Coffee - Tanzania - Peaberry Plus - Northern Special - 1-6 lbs "Roasted upon Order" This Tanzania coffee comes from estates along the slopes of Africa’s Mt. Kilimanjaro, close geographically to the Kenyan border. These beans are known for being small fused beans, shaped by nature with a cleft in the middle. The Peaberry shape is due to the two coffee seeds in the coffee cherry not separating into two during maturation. The resulting peaberry is very dense and uniform. This miracle of nature provides a very citrus based flavor that is focused and consistent. We are delighted by how the medium bodied Tanzania peaberry coffee works well in every brewing method and packs a serious fruity punch as a single origin espresso.DetailsRegion/Farm: Mount Kilimanjaro EstatesElevation: 3,120-4,500 ft.

But if you do not have a grinder, here is a breakdown of the grind levels we offer:Coarse Coffee Grind: Use in a French Press or Percolator When brewing coffee in a French Press or Percolator, the coffee grounds are in contact with water for a relatively long period of time (2-4 minutes, depending on volume). Because of the longer brew cycle, a coarse coffee grind with larger granules is recommended.Medium Coffee Grind: Use in Regular Drip coffee machines or Flat-bottomed filter This coffee grind resembles sugar and is used primarily with vacuum and flat-bottom drip makers. It is the most versatile grind and suits most drip brewing methods. We recommend this grind for pour-overs with metal filters.Fine Coffee Grind: Use with drip and other filter brewing methodsNot all drip coffee machines and filters are the same. Although a medium grind works with most drip coffee machines, it may be necessary to experiment with a grind that is a bit finer. A fine coffee grind will have a texture like cornmeal and is fine enough to hold and slow down the flow of water passing through the coffee as it sits in the paper filter. A fine grind can also be used with a Neapolitan flip-drip and most manual paper pour-overs.Espresso Coffee Grind: Use with espresso machines Grinding coffee for espresso is probably the most difficult to get right. The coffee grind needs to be fine enough to increase the pressure required to push the water through the filter and create a good crema. But if the grind is too fine, the ground coffee can block the coffee filter. Generally, espresso coffee grind resembles a mixture of powdered sugar and fine beach sand. Since each espresso machine is a bit different, you may have to experiment to get the coffee grind just right.Some of these grinds are subject to preference, which is why we recommend owning a grinder. Look to our blog page for ideas of what to use at home.Packaging and Shipping Roasted Coffee is packed in valved, food grade, Biotrē™ coffee bags to ensure freshness and superior quality. We use the Biotrē™ coffee bags because they are 60% (by weight) biodegradable, made from wood pulp, which is compostable. The other 40% of the bag is a polyethylene liner that has an additive, allowing the liner to break down within 5-10 years. (Biotrē™ 1.0: 60% compostable/60% renewable, not including the valve.) We do this because a standard plastic coffee bag can take up to one thousand years to decompose. So just remove the valve from the bag and compost.Domestic and most international shipments will ship via USPS or USPS Priority mail.How to Store your Coffee Roasted Coffee will last 2 weeks, before quality begin to degrade. We recommend only buying the amount of roasted coffee you can use in a 2-week period. Store at room temperature and out of sunlight.If you have any questions, feel free to contact us or visit us at RostHausCoffee.com.
