Brewing Methods
Best for: Pour-Over & Espresso
This coffee brings more aromatic detail, while still aligning with Cast Iron’s focus on balance.
Pour-Over-Approach
As a pour-over, Ethiopian Yirgacheffe shows clarity and structure without becoming overwhelming. Use a steady, even pour and avoid chasing extremes — the coffee is roasted to be expressive but controlled.
Espresso Approach
As espresso, it offers a brighter, more nuanced cup while remaining approachable. It’s best enjoyed when you want something a little different, without sacrificing drinkability.
Why it Works?
This coffee adds interest without straying into sharp or experimental territory. It’s a good example of how Cast Iron handles more expressive origins with restraint.
How To Store Coffee?
When sealed and kept at room temperature, coffee can be stored for 1–2 months.
Once the bag is opened, its shelf life decreases significantly. That’s why we recommend buying only as much as you’ll use within one to two weeks. After grinding, coffee loses its freshness quickly – not over days, but within minutes. For the best flavor, grind just before brewing.
Coffee can also be stored in the freezer in its original sealed bag for up to six months.
Just make sure there are no strong odors nearby, as coffee easily absorbs external smells. Freezing is a valid option, but the beans should only be defrosted once – ideally at room temperature over 10–12 hours. Do not refreeze.
