HOW?

We love this coffee made in an Inverted Aeropress!

  1. Assemble the Aeropress upside down with the filter at the top. Take the basket off.
  2. Pour onto the plunger 16g of coffee (about 1 level aeropress scoop).
  3. Top it up to the top with hot water (again, 87-95 degrees filtered water is ideal), all the way to where you screw on the filter basket.
  4. Give it a light stir and screw on the basket with the wet filter paper inside it.
  5. After 2 mins, place a cup on top of the basket and flip the Aeropress quickly!
  6. Plunge into the cup and let it cool.

WHY?

On the border between the coffee regions of Nyeri and Kirinyaga, Karii factory serves 600 smallholder farmers, who have about 180 coffee trees each, on average. Most farmers grow SL-28 or SL-34 varieties, typical to Kenya, and they are also starting to use shade trees to combat the climate change happening throughout the area. Typical farm crops include beans, yams, cassava, and corn; macadamia and avocado are becoming more common as shade plants. The factory is operated by the Mutira Farmer Cooperative Society, which is the umbrella over several regional coffee factories including Kagumo, Mutitu, and Kiangundu among others; there are around 4,000 members who are part of whole society. The Karii factory was built in 1984, located about 70 miles from Nairobi and a mile and a half from Kerugoya town. The Rundu river provides water for the processing: Ripe cherry is brought by the farmer members, depulped on an Aagard disc pulper, and dried to just below 12% moisture. It is dry milled at a facility near Karatina town, at Central Kenya Coffee Mills.

We roast all of our coffee beans in small batches - we want to make sure you get the best beans for your brew. This means we're roasting Monday to Friday so your caffeine delivery will contain coffee that is freshly roasted and ready to enjoy!
