Bali Kala Patra Hybrid Wash Brew Guide

The roast plan was designed to emphasize the coffee’s delicate nuances and vibrant, sparkling fruit-forward acidity. To achieve this, a shorter development time was employed to preserve the coffee’s lively acidity and ensure its brightness shines through in the cup.

The result? A bright and lively acidity with dominant citrus notes, a sparkling yet syrupy sweetness reminiscent of cola, finishing with gentle, warming spices.

if it brews too quickly, adjust for a finer grind size.

We always try to bring out more sweetness from the coffee in our cup. Remember, if your cup has a long, bitter finish, you're likely over extracting your coffee, so you can dial it in by going a little coarse on the grind size or decreasing the temperature of your brewing water. Always aim for a Bettr brew each day!
