Ah the Eureka. Our signature blend and the fruit that goes with our every meal. Okay, maybe not every meal, but at least two. Our favourite blend has changed a little since its last iteration many years ago. Due to changes in supply, Eureka is now comprises an additional component: Ethiopian Yirgacheffe Idedo!
The main change? A forward flavour of sweet, red cherry followed by elegant citrus notes which, paired with a gentle acidity, reminds of Mandarin. With a medium body and round, milky texture, the fruity Eureka we've known and love is just as good, if not better! Roasted primarily for espresso, here's a starting point to brewing coffee with the Eureka:
Espresso Recipe
| Ratio | 1:2 |
| Temperature | 93°C filtered water |
| Dose | 18g |
| Yield | 36g |
| Time | 27s (+/- 1s) |
If the extraction takes longer than 28s, adjust for a coarser grind size;
if it pulls too quickly, adjust for a finer grind size. (Pssst. We've tried Eureka as a pourover too and it had surprising results!)
We serve Eureka all the time at our cafe, Bettr Coffee @ The Foundry, and at our Academy. If you have any questions or trouble with your brews, get in touch with us anywhere and we can help you! Don't be afraid to experiment with what suits your taste best and as always, we hope you aim for a Bettr brew each day!
