Filter Coffees

Filter coffee offers a delightful and timeless way to savour a freshly brewed cup.

This method, which involves pouring hot water over ground coffee and straining it through a paper or metal filter, is cherished by coffee aficionados for its purity and straightforwardness.

Our omni-roasted coffee is versatile, suitable for both filter and espresso brewing methods, accommodating any equipment you may have. Filter coffee, in particular, highlights the origin, process, and craftsmanship involved in its creation, allowing the true essence of the beans to shine through. Typically, filter coffee beans are medium to light roast, providing a balanced flavour profile and a clean finish.

Whether you opt for a traditional cafetiere or more modern devices like the V60 or AeroPress, filter coffee promises an exceptional drinking experience. A solid starting recipe is 15 grams of coffee per 250 grams of water, which you can adjust to your taste.

For optimal freshness, we recommend purchasing whole beans, though pre-ground options are also available.

Filter Coffee F.A.Q's

What is filter coffee?

Filter coffee refers to the method of brewing coffee, which can be broadly classified into two main techniques: drip brewing and immersion. Both techniques involve mixing hot water with coarsely ground coffee to produce a delightful beverage. Drip brewing, exemplified by devices such as the V60, Aeropress, and Chemex, entails pouring water over coffee grounds and allowing it to pass through by gravity. In contrast, immersion brewing combines coffee grounds and water, letting them steep together.

Each method yields distinct flavour profiles in the final cup. Explore our selection of coffee brewers to discover the device that best suits your taste.

What grind size will be sent if I choose pre-ground filter?

This depends on what coffee brewer you use. We recommend choosing whole bean for maximum freshness and using an electric home grinder to fine tune your grind size. If you don’t have a grinder at home, simply select our filter grind type option.

Does Ue sell filter coffee in wholebean?

Yes. All our coffees are available as whole bean.

What equipment do you need for filter coffee?

You simply need a coffee brewer and some coffee filter papers to get started. We always recommend weighing your dose, so scales are important too. That’s it, you’re good to go. Elevate your setup with a home grinder, kettle, and server.

How should I store my ground coffee?

Storing ground coffee properly will keep it fresh for longer.

The best way to store ground coffee is to keep it away from air, moisture, heat, and light. Ideally, you'd store your coffee in an airtight container inside a cool, dark cupboard. The container should be as small as possible so that the amount of air it comes into contact with is limited.

Please just do not put your coffee in the fridge or freezer. That's not where it belongs.

How do I dispose of my waste coffee grounds?

You can dispose of your old coffee grounds in the bin or, even better, use them in your compost or as a fertiliser for your garden. Just don't put them in the sink—they'll clog.
