This is how coffee becomes a complete pleasure

  • Grinding

    Ideally, you should prepare your coffee right before preparation grind to preserve the fresh bean flavor.
    The degree of grinding defines the type of preparation. Coarse for the coffee press, medium for the classic filter coffee machines and fine for the espresso machines.

  • Quantity

    The quantity determines the strength of the coffee and thus the flavour and taste. For the perfect coffee, we recommend using 7-9 g of ground coffee per 180 ml of water. You can alter the intensity of the coffee by adding hot water.

  • Water

    Approx. 98% of the brewed coffee is water. The salts and minerals found in the water make a significant contribution to the flavour of the coffee.
    The quality of the water is therefore of the utmost importance. Provided it tastes great, you can use fresh tap water to make a good cup of coffee. If this is not the case, you can use filtered or bottled water

  • Water temperature

    The temperature of the water that comes into contact with the ground coffee should be between 90°C and 96°C, with 92°C being the optimal temperature. The water should never exceed boiling point. If the temperature of the water is too high, the coffee will taste burnt.

  • Freshness

    After the packet has been opened, the coffee should be stored at room temperature in an opaque, air-tight container and ideally used as quickly as possible. You can also store your coffee in the packet itself.

    The flavour freshness valve
    Our packets of beans come with a flavour freshness valve which ensures that oxygen, which can accelerate the loss of flavour, cannot get in. This allows our roast coffee to be easily stored for months and offers the most optimal way to preserve the coffee’s flavour.

  • The mineral wealth from Peru: 100% Arabica highland coffee

    Our noble ALTOMAYO Arabica beans grow and thrive ideal climatic conditions in the remote heights of the Peruvian To the.

  • The prerequisite for really good coffee is a high-quality green coffee: Coffea Arabica

    Coffea Arabica, or mountain coffee, is the highest quality coffee.
    The original plant grows up to 12m high. From her white flowers the coffee cherries form, the mostly red-colored drupes. It was discovered in the 7th century in the Ethiopian highlands and becomes since then cultivated as food.
    Today, Coffea Arabica is exported to most tropical destinations for export Lands grown on plantations. Unlike the more heat resistant and faster growing coffee variety Robusta stands out Arabica due to their nobler taste and lower caffeine content.

  • The gentle ALTOMAYO long-term roasting

    The already selected raw coffee beans are turned over at temperatures the 200 °C for about 12-15 minutes roasted. Due to the long roasting time At low temperatures, irritants and bitter substances that cause the Stomach can be reduced, reduced. In this process, a ensures even roasting of the beans.

  • The gentle ALTOMAYO decaffeination with source carbonic acid

    The beans are made using a special, patented process decaffeinated with natural carbon dioxide and pure water. So taste and aroma remain largely intact and unwanted Stimulants and bitter substances are significantly reduced.

    The procedure:
    First, the raw coffee bean is pretreated with water to the Cellular structure of the bean permeable to make caffeine. Pure Source carbonic acid extracts the caffeine in the next step purely physical way in which they caffeine up to their Saturation "charging." In the cycle, this process is repeated until the coffee is largely free of caffeine. He now has a minimum residual caffeine content of <0.05% (relative on the roasted coffee). Dried to its original moisture followed by the roasting of the green coffee. The long-time roasting gives the coffee / espresso its unique mild taste and its full-bodied aroma.
