How people cook with it
This decaffeinated coffee is suitable for various brewing methods, offering versatility in the kitchen.
- Brewed as a morning coffee

To prepare, grind the beans to your preferred consistency depending on your brewing method. For espresso, a fine grind is typically used. For filter coffee or French press, a medium grind works well. Measure the ground coffee into your machine or brewing device. Heat fresh water to the optimal temperature, usually just off the boil.

Serve immediately, with or without milk and sugar, to suit your taste.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store the remaining coffee beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. Avoid refrigeration, as this can introduce moisture and affect the flavor. Ensure the container is sealed tightly to maintain freshness and prevent the beans from absorbing odors from the surrounding environment.
