Is this tea completely caffeine-free?
Yes, this herbal blend contains only herbs and no tea leaves, making it completely caffeine-free.
How many cups of tea can I make with one 40-gram tin?
With the 40 gram tin you can make an average of 20 to 25 cups of tea, depending on your personal preference for strength (it is recommended to use about 2 grams per cup).
What exactly is this Earl Grey flavoured with?
Our Earl Grey tea is flavoured with natural bergamot oil, derived from the peel of the bergamot fruit, a citrus fruit. This creates the characteristic fresh and delicate aroma.
Are the Dark Roast Brazil coffee beans very greasy or oily?
These beans are medium-dark to dark roasted, which may cause some oil to be visible on the surface of the bean. This is typical for a dark roast and enhances the full, powerful flavour. Please note that some customers find the beans quite oily. We recommend cleaning your coffee grinder regularly when using dark, oily beans.
How many cups of tea can I make with 40 grams of loose Earl Grey tea?
With 40 grams of loose tea, you can make approximately 16-20 cups of tea, depending on your preferred strength and the amount of tea you use per cup (about 2 grams per cup).
Does this filter also fit in other coffee drippers besides the Hario V60 size 02?
Yes, these Hario V60 coffee filters size 02 are specially developed for the Hario V60 No. 2 coffee dripper, but they also fit many other 1 to 4 cup coffee drippers. Always check before use whether the size matches your filter holder.
Does this coffee have a fresh or acidic flavour like some other Brazilian coffees?
No, this coffee does not contain any acidity or fresh flavour notes. Many of our customers actually notice that the acidity is absent, which makes the coffee taste full-bodied and strong without the fresher acidity you find in some other coffees.
Is the new (green) packaging really a different filter?
No, only the packaging has been renewed (green); the filters themselves are identical to the trusted original Hario V60 filters.
Can I reuse the tin after using the tea?
Yes, the tin is resealable and reusable. This way, after use you can fill it with new tea, herbs or other small products.
What is the best way to brew this Crunchy Apple Pie tea?
We recommend 2 grams of tea per cup with water at 90-95°C and an infusion time of 3-4 minutes. Taste occasionally to achieve your desired strength of flavour.
Can I reuse or reseal the packaging after opening?
Yes, the loose tea is packaged in a resealable and reusable tin. This way, your tea stays fresh for longer and the tin is handy for storing other things after use.
Does this dark roast result in a bitter or burnt taste in the coffee?
We roast our Dark Roast Brazil beans so that they are powerful in flavour without a burnt or unpleasantly bitter aftertaste. The flavour is full and intense with clearly recognisable notes of nuts and dark chocolate. Compared to many other dark roasts, these beans are therefore not bitter or burnt, which is also confirmed by many of our customers.
How do I best prepare this loose Pu-Erh tea?
We recommend using 2 grams of tea per cup, pouring water of approximately 95°C over it and allowing the tea to steep for 2-4 minutes. This way, the flavour notes of both the Pu-Erh and the forest fruits are brought out to their best advantage.
Can I use these beans in a fully automatic machine or coffee grinder, despite the dark roast?
You can use these beans in all coffee grinders and fully automatic machines. However, we recommend that you clean your fully automatic machine or (home) grinder regularly, as oily, dark roasted beans can leave residues. This prevents the build-up of oils and keeps your machine in good condition.
Are the beans dry or oily and does that affect the use in my fully automatic machine?
Our beans are generally dry, but some customers have noticed that the beans can sometimes be a bit oilier. This may affect the bean supply in some fully automatic machines. We recommend cleaning the bean hopper regularly, especially when using oilier beans, to prevent blockages.
