Illy Filter Dark Roast Coffee Beans 250 g

A filter DARK Roast.

The illy blend is always the same, comprising 9 selected Arabica varieties from all over the world. The grinding is specifically studied to optimize results with filter coffee makers and the french press

• Ratio: Use 1 to 2 tablespoons (approx. 7–8g) of coffee per 100–150ml of water.
• Water Temperature: Use slightly cooler water (85°C to 90°C). Let boiled water sit for 60 seconds before pouring so it does not burn the dark roast.
• Grind Size: Stick to a medium to medium-coarse grind to prevent over-extraction.

• Drip Machines: Rinse your paper filter with hot water first. Once brewed, remove the carafe from the hot plate immediately to stop the coffee from baking and turning bitter.
• Pour-Over: Start with a 45-second bloom (wetting the grounds), then pour slowly in circular patterns for a total brew time of 2.5 to 3 minutes.
• French Press: Let the coffee steep for 4 minutes before plunging gently.

• Never Reheat: Reheating destroys the delicate aromatic oils.
• Clean Weekly: Dark roasts leave heavy oil residues. Clean your gear weekly to avoid a stale taste.
• Storage: Keep the tin in a cool, dark place, or sealed in the refrigerator if stored for more than a few days.
