Coffee for Pour Over
Pour over is the method that hides nothing. Water passes through a paper filter once, the bed does the work, and every choice you made about grind, temperature and pour rate lands in the cup. The coffees in this collection are roasted light to medium so that origin character, the acidity and florality and fruit, has somewhere to go instead of being flattened into roast flavour.
Start at 60g per litre: 15g of coffee to 250g of water. Bloom with twice the coffee weight for 30 to 45 seconds, then pour in slow concentric circles and aim to finish drawdown between 2:30 and 3:30. Water at 92 to 96C. If the cup tastes thin and sour, grind finer before you change anything else; if it is drying and hollow, grind coarser. Rest single origins about seven days from the roast date, because coffee still degassing will stall the bed and pour unevenly.
The wider light-to-medium range sits in filter coffees.

Coffee That Holds Up in Milk
Milk does two things to coffee: it mutes acidity and it buries anything delicate. A floral lot that sings black will disappear entirely under 180ml of steamed milk. The coffees here are selected for the opposite problem, with enough sweetness, enough body and enough chocolate or nut weight to still be recognisable once dairy is in the cup. Several are blends built for exactly that job.
For a flat white, run a tighter ratio than you would drink black: more coffee, less water, so the concentration survives dilution. Texture the milk to about 60C and no further, because past 65C the lactose starts to taste scalded and no bean will rescue it. Oat milk behaves differently again; the barista formulations froth because of added fat and stabilisers, so a coffee that works with dairy usually works with those too. Skimmed milk foams easily and tastes thin.
If you pull shots, the same profiles are listed under espresso coffees.

Dark Roast Coffee
Dark roast coffee beans: cocoa, toasted nut and low acidity, built for milk, moka pot and espresso. BRUTE FORCE is our dark roast, heavy-bodied with caramel and nut. GRINDSTONE, DARK MATTER, HOUSE NO. 02 and AGNI 03 are medium-dark for everyday brewing. Roasted to order in New Delhi, whole bean or ground for your brewer, with the roast date on every bag and free shipping across India.
How to brew dark roast coffee
Dark and medium-dark roasts are taken to or near second crack. At that point the roast itself is the dominant flavour: cocoa, toasted nut, molasses, a low bitterness that reads as strength. Origin acidity is largely gone, and that is deliberate. It is also what most espresso bars in India, and most people who take their coffee with milk and sugar, actually want.
Darker beans are more porous and more soluble, so they give up flavour faster. Grind a notch coarser than you would for the same method at a lighter roast, and drop your water to 88 to 92C. Boiling water on a dark roast is where the ashy taste comes from, not the bean. These also stale faster because the oils sit closer to the surface, so buy the size you will finish in three or four weeks, keep the bag sealed, and keep it out of the fridge.
Bulk sizes for households that drink daily are in value packs.

Espresso Coffees
Coffees we roast specifically to be pulled under pressure: enough sweetness to survive 9 bar, enough body to hold their shape through 180ml of milk, and a profile stable enough that your baristas are not re-dialling every delivery.
Rest these 7–14 days from the roast date before pulling them. Our espresso guide has the full dose, yield and timing recipe.

Filter Coffees
Coffees roasted lighter, for methods where water passes through rather than being forced through — V60, Kalita, AeroPress, French press, batch brew and the South Indian steel filter.
This is where acidity, florality and origin character actually show up. If you have bought a traceable estate lot and want to know what you paid for, brew it this way first.
We grind for your method at checkout — including a proper South Indian filter grind, which is a genuinely different setting from pour-over and almost nobody offers it.

Fine Robusta
Fine robusta coffee beans, selectively picked and processed with the same care as specialty arabica, then roasted to order in New Delhi. Robusta brings a heavier body, deeper chocolate and nut notes and a thicker crema, and it earns its place in milk drinks. In stock now: GRINDSTONE, RED LANTERN, ÉTOILE NOIR and OBSIDIAN. Roast date on every bag, free shipping across India.
How to brew fine robusta
Robusta has a bad name in India for a reason: most of it is grown for volume, processed carelessly and sold into instant. Fine robusta is the same species treated the way specialty arabica is treated, selectively picked, properly washed or fermented, graded and cupped. It carries roughly twice the caffeine, considerably more chlorogenic acid, and a heavier, lower-toned cup of dark chocolate, cereal and walnut with a thick body and almost no acidity.
Where it earns its place is crema and milk. A small proportion of good robusta in an espresso blend gives a denser, more stable crema and pushes flavour through a cappuccino in a way arabica alone struggles to manage. Brewed on its own, keep the dose lower than you would for arabica, because the extra solubles mean a standard ratio comes out heavy. Start at 55g per litre on filter rather than 60g, and use water off the boil rather than at it.
Several of these are experimental ferments; the wider range sits in all coffees.

Gear & Goods
The kit we actually use, not a catalogue of everything that exists. Brewers, grinders, kettles, scales and the small things that make a real difference to what ends up in the cup.
If you are buying one thing, buy a burr grinder. It changes more than any other purchase under ₹20,000. Our brew guides cover what to use each of these for.
