About beans:

Quality and consistency. It’s not easy when you’re a farmer, with changing weather and different circumstances on a yearly or even seasonal basis, to match the same flavor profile as last year. It might even be impossible. For this reason, the team of Q-graders of Capricornio Coffees cups all the coffees of the more than a dozen partner fazendas and farmer groups, grades them according to their flavor and quality, and then makes farmer blends, solely based on taste. Since 2022, Capricornio Coffees designed a program to achieve the flavour stability we seek while only sourcing from the same partners year on year in their trusted network: São Jerónimo da Serra, Mulheres do Café Matão, Fazenda Fronteira, and Fazenda California. For example, the Dulce Signature blend is described as dark chocolate, with a sweet and round thick body. One year, this might consist of more coffee from Fazenda California and less from São Jerónimo da Serra. The year after, this might be the other way around.

Farm composition in the coffee bag might change, but the farms don’t sit still either. Being part of Capricornio’s 4 Seasons Project, they get free agronomical support, with an agronomist visiting them every 60 days. Together, they look at plant and soil health and do soil measurements, which are used to advise on which parts of the farms need extra attention. It’s high-end knowledge and a solid partnership to provide a sustainable future.

The cup profile gives us everything we want in a good Brazilian coffee: good body and sweetness, mild acidity, and heavy chocolate and nutty flavours without any fruit notes. A true crowd pleaser.

Recipe

  • RECIPE

  • This profile and recipe was developed on a Hario V60 01 (plastic) – so should be taken as a starting point, and not an absolute as different brewers, paperfilters and grinders result in a different outcome in the cup. Remember taste is king!

  • We use our OptionO P80, Cafec T90 paper filters, RO filtered water round 75 ppm, and a medium-course grindsize (between 600-650 µm / 6.0-6.5 on the P80 / 23-25 clicks on a Commandante C40)

  • RECIPE DETAILS

  • We recommend the following recipe as a starting point

  • Method

    v60

    Soft water (75ppm) at 198ºF/92.0ºC/

  • Coffee

  • Water

  • WATER FOR FILTER COFFEE

  • For the best tasting result and for the longevity of your kettle use filtered water.

  • Use one of the following solutions

  • Soft tap water filtered through a filter pitcher (e.g. BWT)

  • Bottled water with a low TDS (i.e. between 50/80 TDS)

  • Zero Water Filter + minerals (e.g. Lotus Water, Apex Lab, Third Wave Water or dilute with tap water to get in the 50/80 TDS range)
