The Producer

Tsegab Ayele is the owner of a washing station in the Bochessa Maleko Village in Sidama. The station is supplied by 400 smallholders from Bochessa and 4 other villages. The average altitude is 2350 masl giving the coffees incredible complexity and a vibrant, floral cup profile.

The Lot

After being hand-picked, the fully ripe cherries are fermented, depulped and washed. Next the parchment coffee is spread over 80 raised african beds where laborers spread it out to the depth of a fingertip and keep it turning until it is dried (10-12 days). 

How we brew it

Prep
Use a scale to measure your dose and yield (= brewed liquid). Use soft water (100-150ppm).
Step 1
Grind 18g of coffee at a very fine espresso setting
Step 2
Distribute the coffee evenly in your portafilter and tamp level.
Step 3
Lock in the portafilter, gentle but firm. Don't crack the coffee bed.
Step 4
Start the machine. Measure 40g of brewed liquid in your cup in 32 seconds.
Step 5
If the coffee runs too fast, grind finer. If the coffee runs too slow, grind coarser.
