IMPORTANT TIPS

Don’t forget your coffee grinder! Experts will inform you that coffee begins to lose its freshness minutes to hours after it is ground. Therefore, it is always best to grind your coffee beans just before making your coffee. One of our favorites is the Timemore C2 Portable Manual Coffee Grinder that grinds one cup at a time. If you prefer an electric grinder, we recommend the KitchenAid Burr Grinder. You can find them both on Amazon.

Also, we highly recommend using a coffee scale as well as a hot water kettle with temperature control.

Whether you choose to make your coffee by the cup or by the pot, we’re hoping it’s love at first taste with Brazilian Gold Coffee!
