Does the Tea Cultures Finest Jasmine contain caffeine?

Yes. Finest Jasmine is made from Chinese green tea and green tea naturally contains caffeine. The jasmine blossom only provides the scent and the flavour. If you are looking for a caffeine free floral tea, take a look at our rooibos and herbal infusions.

What kind of coffee is the Café du Jour Winterkoffie and what does it taste like?

The Winterkoffie is a warm, full blend with beans from Central and South America and from Indonesia.

It is a medium roast that drinks smoothly and has just enough bite for the morning. The blend is deliberately versatile, so whether you make espresso or filter coffee, it feels at home in both preparations.

There is a white haze on my Segafredo Intermezzo or De Roccis beans, is that mould?

No, that is almost never mould. What you see is crystallised caffeine and coffee oil moving to the outside of the bean. It looks like a white bloom, but it is harmless.

We see this more often with beans that have a higher robusta content, and within this selection in particular with the Segafredo Intermezzo and the De Roccis Qualità Oro Intenso. The taste of the coffee does not change because of it. If you are still unsure, feel free to send us a photo.

What is in the Italian Biscuit Duo with Cantuccini and Amarettini?

This duo consists of two bags: Cantuccini of 175 grams and Amarettini of 200 grams, together 375 grams of biscuits. The Cantuccini are Tuscan almond biscuits, the Amarettini small Italian bitter almond biscuits. Both biscuits are also available separately from us; in this duo you buy them as a fixed combination to go with your coffee.

How much water does the Brita Marella XL white hold?

The Brita Marella XL has a total capacity of 3.5 litres, of which 2 litres is filtered water. The upper reservoir holds the water that has not been filtered yet, which slowly passes down through the filter cartridge. Thanks to that generous capacity you need to refill less often than with a standard water filter jug.

Are Lazarro Espresso coffee beans suitable for a bean to cup machine?

Yes. According to the product data these beans work in every espresso machine and bean to cup coffee machine, without you needing any special settings.

A customer asked us which Lazarro he could take for his bean to cup machine, because he was worried about oily beans that clog up the grinder. We pointed out that beans in this price range are often a bit darker and therefore oilier. The Lazarro Espresso is medium roasted and so not an extremely dark roast.

Is Julius Meinl Präsident suitable for my bean to cup machine?

Yes. According to the product details, Präsident is suitable for both bean to cup machines and semi-automatic machines. The coffee is medium roasted, so the beans are not as oily and shiny as very dark roasted espresso beans.

That is exactly what customers with a Jura or a comparable machine often ask us. Beans that are too oily can build up over time in the grinder and the brew group, but with a medium roast like this one that plays a far smaller role.

Does Popcorn Cherry Bliss green tea contain caffeine?

Yes. The base of this blend is green tea and green tea naturally contains caffeine, also known as theine. How much ends up in your cup depends on the dosage, the water temperature and the steeping time.

If you are looking for a caffeine free tea, take a look at our rooibos and our herbal infusions. Those naturally contain no caffeine.

Is Urnex Grindz suitable for the built in grinder of a bean to cup machine?

No. Urnex Grindz is intended for standalone coffee grinders and is expressly not suitable for the integrated grinders of bean to cup coffee machines.

With a bean to cup machine you clean the coffee circuit with cleaning tablets that are meant for the machine itself. If you are unsure about your model, check the manual of the machine.

Which grind do I use for the AeroPress Clear?

For the AeroPress Clear a grind that sits between filter grind and percolator works best. If you have your coffee ground by us, choose the grind setting Aeropress: that sits exactly between a filter grind and a percolator grind.

If the coffee runs through too quickly or tastes thin, grind a little finer. If it turns bitter or runs through with difficulty, choose a little coarser.

Does Good night herbal tea contain caffeine?

No. Good night is a herbal blend containing camomile, lemon balm and mint among other things, and it contains no leaf from the tea plant. So there is no caffeine in it, which makes this tea suitable for the end of the day.

How much water does the BRITA Aluna Black water filter jug hold?

The jug has a total capacity of 2.4 litres, of which 1.4 litres is filtered water. The top part is the funnel that holds the unfiltered water while it passes through the filter.

The Aluna fits in the fridge door and has a fill flap so you can fill it one-handed under the tap. The pouring lid keeps dust out.

Does the MHW-3BOMBER Cube Mini 2.0 scale fit under my espresso machine?

The Cube Mini 2.0 measures 10.5 x 10.5 cm and is only 1.8 cm high, so it fits under almost any espresso machine. To be sure, measure the clearance between your drip tray and the spout and compare it with 1.8 cm plus the height of your cup.

Customers do sometimes return a scale because it turns out to be too tall to fit under the group head, so this is a sensible check beforehand. The scale itself weighs 270 grams.

How often should I replace the filter of the Brita glass water filter jug?

According to the product information, a filter cartridge lasts up to four weeks. The SmartLight indicator on the jug tracks time and use and shows with an LED light when the filter needs replacing.

Rinse a new cartridge before first use as described in the Brita manual. Replace the filter on time, because a saturated filter no longer does its job properly.

Is L'OR Elegant Espresso the successor to the Piazza D'Oro Amabile?

Yes. The Piazza D'Oro range has been discontinued and L'OR Elegant Espresso is the successor to the Piazza D'Oro Amabile. Like the Amabile, this is a mild coffee, meant for anyone who likes a smooth and aromatic taste.

You receive a 1 kilo bag of whole coffee beans.
