What is the difference between the Gimoka Gusto Ricco and the Gimoka Aroma Classico?

Both are Italian blends of arabica and robusta that we sell as whole beans in a 1 kilo bag, with notes of cocoa and lightly roasted nuts.

The difference lies mainly in the strength. We rate the Aroma Classico at intensity 10 out of 13 and the Gusto Ricco at 13. The Gusto Ricco is therefore the strongest of the two.

Can you also use the Joerges Heritage Espresso for cappuccino or latte macchiato?

Yes. This blend is intended as an intense espresso, but works just as well as a base for classic Italian coffee specialities such as cappuccino, latte macchiato and flat white.

The powerful body and the notes of nuts and chocolate remain clearly recognisable through the milk. Allow roughly 16 to 20 grams of ground coffee for a double espresso as the base.

What material is the JoeFrex knock box made of?

The outside is made of natural wood. In this new version the glued plywood laminates of the old model have been replaced with natural wood, with the same stability and sturdiness.

Inside there is a removable plastic inner container made of PVC. It catches the coffee grounds and lifts straight out so you can empty and clean it.

Which grind size do I need for the Hario Mizudashi cold brew pot?

For the Hario Mizudashi we recommend a coarse grind, comparable to a French press or Chemex grind. With too fine a grind the coffee struggles to pass through the permanent filter and the taste quickly turns bitter. If you order the coffee from us, we will grind the beans to the right grind size for you on request.

Which ingredients are in the Auro Don Papa Rum 70% dark chocolate?

The ingredients are cocoa mass, cane sugar, cocoa butter and rum. So there is no milk or milk powder on the ingredient list.

Do note the manufacturer's statement: this product is made in a facility where products containing milk, nuts and peanuts are also processed. If you have an allergy, always read the label on the packaging.

How accurately does the MHW-3BOMBER Cube Mini 2.0 weigh and what is its maximum capacity?

The Cube Mini 2.0 has a weighing range of 0.3 to 2000 grams and an accuracy of 0.1 gram. That is precise enough to track both your coffee dose and the output weight of your espresso.

You can switch between grams and ounces. At a weight above 100 grams the scale switches on automatically and tares itself.

Which coffee filters fit the Hario V60 dripper from this set?

The dripper in this set is size 02, so you need V60 filter paper in size 02. The set already contains 40 filters, so you can start straight away.

Filters for size 01 are smaller and do not sit properly in an 02 dripper. So when reordering, always check the size marking 02 on the packaging.

Are the Kimbo Aroma Organic beans suitable for my bean to cup machine?

Yes. These are whole coffee beans in a 1 kilo pack, and Kimbo states that they are suitable for both automatic coffee machines and hand grinders. For a bean to cup machine you always use whole beans, so you do not need to grind anything in advance. If you brew the coffee in an espresso machine, a pour-over filter or a percolator, you grind the beans yourself to the grind size that suits that appliance.

Can you use the Gimoka Aroma Classico in a bean to cup machine or espresso machine?

Yes. You buy whole beans in a 1 kilo bag, so you can use them in any machine with a bean grinder, such as a bean to cup machine or an espresso machine with a grinder.

The roast is medium, so the beans are not dark and oily. That runs nicely through the grinder of a bean to cup machine.

Do I get whole beans or ground coffee with the illy Nicaragua 250 grams?

You get whole coffee beans. The pack contains 250 grams of illy Arabica Selection Nicaragua in bean form, so you need a coffee grinder or a machine with a built in grinder.

Grinding yourself? Use espresso grind for an espresso machine and filter grind for a filter brewer such as a V60 or a Moccamaster. Those two grind sizes are not interchangeable.

How do you use the matcha whisk with 80 prongs?

Put about 1.5 to 2 grams of matcha, which is roughly a teaspoon, in a matcha bowl and pour in a small splash of water at about 80 degrees. Whisk with the matcha whisk in a quick W motion from your wrist until the lumps are gone and a fine layer of foam forms.

Then top up with hot water or with warm milk for a matcha latte. Matcha does not need to be sieved or filtered, you simply drink the powder along with it.

How often do you replace the MAXTRA PRO filter of the BRITA Aluna White?

A MAXTRA PRO filter cartridge lasts up to 4 weeks or 150 litres. After that you replace it with a new cartridge.

The BRITA Smart Light on the jug keeps track of this for you with a colour indicator: green means the filter is fine, orange that replacement is almost due and red that it is time for a new cartridge.

Does Sunleaf Green Tea Lemon contain caffeine?

Yes. Sunleaf Green Tea Lemon consists of 80 percent green tea and green tea naturally contains caffeine, also known as theine.

If you are looking for a caffeine-free cup, choose a rooibos or a herbal infusion without tea leaves.

Are the Amarettini Cacao biscuits gluten free or vegan?

No. The Amarettini Cacao contain wheat flour, so they are not gluten free. According to the allergen information they also contain chicken egg protein and milk protein, which means they are not vegan.

If you follow a diet or have an allergy, always check the label on the bag you receive.

What does Idee Kaffee Caffè Crema taste like?

Idee Kaffee Caffè Crema has a balanced and full flavour profile with notes of roasted nuts and a chocolatey character.

The beans are classic and medium roasted, which gives the coffee little acidity. Our product data lists the intensity at 6 out of 13, classed by us as regular.
