For your drinking pleasure we present these brew techniques. These are NOT the final word on brewing (can there ever be a final word in the world of coffee?) but are a great spot to start. We’ve managed to get a consensus between our baristas and trainers agreeing on these methods after much discussion, tasting, wading through beards and opening cans of worms. This brewing guide will hopefully be useful to baristas and punters alike – enjoy!
