Which coffee and which grind do you use in the Hario Mizudashi 600 ml?

Choose a coarse grind for the Hario Mizudashi, comparable to the grind size for a French press or Chemex. A finer grind passes straight through the mesh filter and makes your cold brew cloudy and bitter.

For cold brew, our customer service usually recommends a 100% arabica bean. A smooth, nutty or slightly sweet coffee works nicely, and a dark roast is possible too as long as it is not too bitter. If you order beans from us, on request we grind them straight away to the right grind size for cold brew.

What does the Café du Jour Sumatra coffee taste like?

This Sumatra is medium roasted and has a spicy character, like many Indonesian coffees, with light hints of cocoa. It is bold and has a clear acidity. We rate the intensity as 8, so powerful. If you are looking for a mild, low acidity coffee, this single origin is not the most obvious choice.

Does Tea Cultures Vervain tea contain caffeine?

No. Vervain is a herbal tea made from verbena and contains no tea leaf, so the tea is naturally caffeine free. That means you can still drink it late in the evening. The fresh citrus note also makes it pleasant after a hearty meal.

Does Red Rooibos Chai contain caffeine or theine?

No. Red Rooibos Chai is made with rooibos as its base and not with black tea, as a classic chai is. Rooibos is naturally caffeine free, so this blend contains no caffeine or theine.

That means you can happily drink it in the evening too. Theine and caffeine are in fact the same substance, just under a different name.

Is the Costa Coffee Brazilian Single Origin Character Dark Roast suitable for a bean to cup machine?

This Costa Coffee is supplied as whole beans, so you can use it in any bean to cup machine or coffee grinder.

Do bear in mind that this is a dark roast. Dark roasted beans have a slightly oilier surface, which some bean to cup machines are more sensitive to than others. We therefore advise you to keep the grinder and the bean hopper clean on a regular basis.

If you are unsure whether your machine is suitable for dark beans, please check the manual of your bean to cup machine.

Does the Tea Cultures Pacific Dreams contain caffeine?

Yes. Pacific Dreams is a black tea and black tea naturally contains caffeine. The blend is mild in flavour, but mild does not mean caffeine free. If you want a cup without caffeine, have a look at our rooibos and herbal teas.

Is Gimoka Espresso 24 suitable for a bean to cup machine?

Yes. Our product details list the bean to cup machine as the ideal brewing method for Gimoka Espresso 24. These are whole beans, so you pour them straight into the bean hopper.

It is a dark roasted Italian blend. Dark roasted beans release a little more oil, so we recommend cleaning the bean hopper and the grinder regularly. If in doubt, consult the manual of your machine.

Does Love from the Caribbean fruit tea contain caffeine?

No. This fruit tea is made up of lemongrass, fruit pieces and coconut and contains no leaf from the tea plant. That means there is no caffeine in it and you can drink it at any time of day.

Is Passalacqua Grancaffé certified organic?

No. Passalacqua has several blends and not all of them are certified organic. For Passalacqua Grancaffé, no official organic label is registered in our product data.

If you are looking specifically for certified organic coffee, take a look at our range of organic coffee beans.

Which coffees are in the illy Espresso tasting pack with decaf in ground coffee?

You get three 250 gram tins of ground coffee: illy Classico, illy Intenso and illy Decaffeinato. Classico is the mild, balanced roast, Intenso is the darker and stronger version that used to be called illy Zwart, and Decaffeinato is the decaffeinated illy. Please note: decaffeinated does not mean caffeine free, a small residual amount remains. Together that is 750 grams of ground coffee. The composition of this pack is fixed and cannot be changed.

Does the Cinnamon, almond, cardamom and vanilla green tea contain almonds?

Yes. The ingredient list of this blend is: green tea, almonds, lime blossom, cinnamon and flavouring. The almonds give the cup its full, nutty character.

If you have a nut allergy, this tea is not suitable. If in doubt, always check the ingredient list on the packaging.

What is the difference between the Café du Jour Melktopping with less sugar and the regular Melktopping?

This variant contains about half the sugar of the regular Café du Jour Melktopping. Per 100 grams that means 39 grams of sugars and 65 grams of carbohydrates, with 18 grams of fat and 8.1 grams of protein, adding up to 458 kcal.

In use there is no further difference. The topping dissolves easily and gives the same creamy layer of milk foam on your coffee or hot chocolate.

What does Segafredo Selezione 100% Arabica taste like and which coffee is it comparable to?

This Segafredo Selezione is a 100% Arabica blend with a fruity and floral aroma, a chocolatey taste and a nutty aftertaste. The beans are medium roasted and give an intensity that we describe as normal, with a velvety smooth crema in the Italian style.

A customer asked us whether these beans are similar to a mild arabica from Central or South America that he was used to. That is correct: the beans come from that region, which makes the coffee rounded and smooth instead of sharp or smoky.

Does the Jura CLARIS Smart+ water filter fit my Jura Z6?

No, this CLARIS Smart+ filter does not fit the Jura Z6. It is a question we get quite often, because the filters look similar from the outside. For the Z6 we currently do not have a matching filter in our range.

Does 2001 night tea contain caffeine?

Yes, 2001 night is registered in our product data as containing caffeine. The blend is made up of green and black tea, and both come from the tea plant and naturally contain caffeine. If you want something without caffeine in the evening, take a look at our rooibos or herbal infusions.
