Morning Ritual™, our South Indian filter coffee range.
Premium South Indian Coffee
Two blends. One ritual.
Who we are
Filter coffee is a method before it is a flavour. A two chamber vessel, a slow decoction, and a long pour between tumbler and dabara.
We grind for that vessel and nothing else.
One · A moment
Three heaped spoons into the upper chamber. Level it, do not press it down yet.
Two · A moment
Set the pressing disc on top and turn it once. Firm, not tight. This is what sets the drip rate.
Three · 200ml
Water just off the boil, poured in one go. Cover it and leave it alone.
Four · 10 to 15 minutes
The decoction drips through dark and slow. Lifting the lid to check will not make it faster.
Five · Until it rises
Whole milk, heated until it lifts. One part decoction to three parts milk.
Six · Six or seven times
Between tumbler and dabara, arm high. It cools the coffee, aerates it, and builds the froth.
The method
Water sits on the grounds and finds its own way through, which takes as long as it takes. What you get is a decoction: concentrated, dark, made to be cut with hot milk.
Twenty minutes, and it asks you to stand there.
For cafes
Filter coffee needs a grind set for the vessel, not for espresso or for paper. That is what we supply.
Both blends, ground to order, in retail bags or in bulk. No minimum to start a conversation.
Two blends, both ground for the filter.
