Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans Preparation Guide

1. To brew the perfect cup of Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans, start by grinding the beans to a medium-coarse consistency, suitable for a pour-over or drip coffee maker.
2. For an optimal brew, use 1 to 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per 6 ounces of water, adjusting to taste preferences. If using a French press, let the coffee steep for 4 to 5 minutes for a rich extraction.
3. For espresso, a fine grind is essential, and use 18 to 20 grams of ground coffee for a double shot.
4. Always use fresh, filtered water to extract the best flavour from the beans, and consider adjusting the grind size based on your brewing method to fine-tune your coffee to perfection.

Harvesting

The harvesting of Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans takes place in the lush highlands of Ethiopia, where the beans are grown by small-scale farmers who have been cultivating coffee for generations. The beans are typically harvested between October and December, with farmers carefully selecting only the ripest cherries. Due to the high altitudes and cool, misty climate, the cherries ripen slowly, allowing the beans to develop their rich flavour profiles. The beans are then handpicked to ensure quality and preserve the unique characteristics of the coffee.

After harvest, the beans are processed using the washed method, where the cherries are pulped, fermented, and washed to remove the outer layers. This process helps to highlight the bright, clean flavours that Ethiopian coffees are known for. The beans are then dried naturally under the sun before being packed and shipped. The Organic Fairtrade certification ensures that the entire process, from cultivation to harvesting, is done sustainably, with fair trade practices benefiting the farmers and their communities.

The organic nature of Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans means that it is grown and harvested without the use of synthetic pesticides or fertilisers, preserving its natural composition.

Best Before

We believe in mindful consumption and want to share some insights on best before dates, especially when it comes to our dried foods. Best before dates indicate peak freshness and quality, not safety. Dried foods, such as grains and legumes, can often be safe and nutritious beyond their best before dates. They may lose a bit of their peak quality, but they remain a valuable and sustainable food source.

We encourage you to trust your senses. If stored properly and free from moisture, dried foods can maintain their safety and flavour for an extended period beyond the best before date. Embrace a less wasteful approach by exploring and using these ingredients even if they've passed their best before dates. Together, let's reduce food waste and maximise the full potential of every pantry staple.

Explore Waste Savers, where you'll find items approaching or past their best before date at reduced prices. Embrace conscious consumption, reduce food waste, and give these products a second chance. Your purchase not only saves you money but also contributes to a more sustainable and mindful approach to nourishment.

Cold Brew Coffee

Prepare a cold brew by coarsely grinding the Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans and steeping them in cold water for 12 to 24 hours. The slow extraction process produces a smooth, less acidic coffee with a deep, rich flavour. Once the brew is ready, strain it and serve over ice. Add milk, cream, or a splash of flavoured syrup to personalise your cold brew. This refreshing drink is perfect for warm weather or when you’re craving a coffee that's easy to make ahead.

Coffee with Spices

For a fun twist, brew your Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans as a base and add spices like cinnamon, cloves, or cardamom. Brew the coffee as usual, then stir in a pinch of your chosen spice before serving. For a more indulgent flavour, add a splash of vanilla extract or coconut milk to complement the beans’ natural fruity and floral notes. This is a great way to enjoy a spiced coffee without overpowering the delicate flavours of the Ethiopian beans.

Classic Brew

For a refreshing, bright cup, grind your Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans to medium-coarse and brew in a French press or pour-over. This method allows the distinct fruity and floral notes to shine through while maintaining a smooth body. Enjoy it as your morning coffee or as a pick-me-up throughout the day. Add a touch of honey or milk for extra sweetness and creaminess or drink it black to fully experience the complexity of its flavour.

The History of Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans

Ethiopia is considered the birthplace of coffee, with a rich history dating back to the 9th century. The legend of Kaldi, the Ethiopian goat herder who discovered coffee when he noticed his goats becoming energetic after eating coffee cherries, is often cited as the origin story. Over centuries, coffee cultivation spread across the region, and Ethiopia became renowned for its high-quality beans. Today, Ethiopia remains one of the largest coffee producers in the world, with regions like Sidamo, Yirgacheffe, and Harrar being known for their distinctive and high-quality coffee varieties. Organic Fairtrade Ethiopian Coffee Beans continue this tradition of excellence, offering a taste of Ethiopian heritage with every sip. The beans are grown using organic methods and harvested by small farmers who continue to employ traditional farming techniques. Fairtrade certification ensures that the farmers receive a fair wage and work under ethical conditions, helping to preserve the culture of coffee farming in Ethiopia while supporting sustainable practices.
