The Grind

There are three main types of Coffee Grind: Coarse, medium and fine, these have many subcategories.

The type of grind will vary depending on the brewing method being used, so if you ask your trusted barista, he or she will tell you what type of grind is needed for your beverage.

Remember that if you are brewing at home, you should make sure to purchase the right kind of grind. Otherwise, you could buy whole-bean coffee and grind it yourself, this way you will be sure that is the right grind for your coffee-maker and you will be able to experiment with different grind variations to find the right one for you.

COFFEE: THE JOURNEY FROM THE SEED TO YOUR CUP
TYPES OF ROASTS - DARK ROASTS

Dark roasts are achieved through a roasting temperature that ranges from 230°C to 250°C. They usually go beyond the second crack.

These kinds of roasts have a fuller body and a smokey taste, they have an almost black color and have less caffeine than the other types of roasts.

In the next image you can observe the different types of roasts starting from a green coffee bean all the way to a full dark roast.

TYPES OF ROASTS - MEDIUM ROASTS

Medium roasts are achieved through a roasting temperature that ranges from 210°C to 230°C. In the darker spectrum of the medium roasts, there will be a second crack, but they tend not to go beyond that.

Medium roasts have a balance between the body and the flavors, they have a medium-brown color and have less caffeine than lighter roasts.

TYPES OF ROASTS - LIGHT ROASTS

Light roasts are achieved through a roasting temperature that ranges from 180°c to 210°C. Around 205°C, coffee beans will pop much like popcorn, this “pop” is called the first crack, and light roasts usually don’t go beyond this first crack.

Light roasts have more acidity than the other roasts, they have a light-brown color and conserve much of the bean’s caffeine.

The Roast

It is thanks to the roasting process that we get that distinctive dark color of our beloved drink

This process, in our opinion, is 50% art and 50% science as roast masters have to experiment but also have a great sense of how each coffee will behave with the different temperatures.

This step is crucial for achieving a great beverage, as a difference of a few seconds or a few degrees can separate an exceptional coffee from a mediocre one, so that’s why we at Essense only work with real artisans that are the best of their kind.

To be able to make a perfect roast you need a lot of experience, you need to have a flawless time and temperature control, and you must be able to recognise how to bring out the best of coffee.

COFFEE: THE JOURNEY FROM THE SEED TO YOUR CUP
The Processes - HONEY

This is a half-way method between dry and washed because it uses water to remove must of the fruit, but it leaves the mucilage or “honey” and then it is left out to dry in the sunlight.

In this process, a balance can be achieved between the sweetness of the fruit and the original properties of the bean.

The honey method is used a lot in coffees from Costa Rica and some subcategories have been developed (Yellow, red, golden, black and white).

COFFEE: THE JOURNEY FROM THE SEED TO YOUR CUP
The Processes - DRY / NATURAL

This process, also known as the natural process, is the traditional method that has been used for centuries and it was first used in Ethiopia.

In this method, coffee cherries are left to dry in the sun before separating the fruit from the bean.

One of the problems with this method is that low-quality producers mix unripe fruits alongside ripe ones, it creates an inconsistency in the flavor, and that is why this method is being considered a low-quality one.

This method is cost effective as it doesn’t need any investment such as the washed method. The only condition is that there has to be enough sunlight during this period for achieving a successful drying.

The dry method can achieve, if well done, very interesting notes of flavors and aromas because the beans with the drying process manage to absorb some of the sweet and fruity qualities of the cherry.

Another positive trait of this method is that it is the most eco-friendly one of the processes, as it only utilizes sunlight and no other raw materials.

COFFEE: THE JOURNEY FROM THE SEED TO YOUR CUP
The Processes - WASHED

The washed method consists of separating the fruit from the bean as cleanly as possible utilizing water as a cleaning agent. In this method, the main protagonist is the bean, by separating the fruit from the bean, this method is a great way to appreciate the true characteristics of a single origin coffee.

One drawback of this method is that it produces a lot of water-wastage, although many producers are experimenting with new techniques which highly reduces the water usage and optimizes productivity.

COFFEE: THE JOURNEY FROM THE SEED TO YOUR CUP
The Harvest

There are two main types of harvesting: Selective picking and Stripping.

Selective picking is the most used method in high-quality coffees, this kind of picking is done exclusively by hand. Experienced farmers choose only the perfectly mature cherries and leave the other ones to let them mature further.

Stripping can be done either manually, with mechanical st*****rs or with large-scale harvesting machines. Contrary to the selective picking, this method does not give importance to the maturation state of the cherries, it focuses on speed/low-cost rather than quality, the results will be cherries in all stages of maturation that will have to be divided in order to avoid mixing them up.
