When we first started roasting, we wanted to create a blend that would be friendly to everyone's taste. A coffee that would taste great as espresso, be pleasant as a morning cup of drip coffee, and stand up well in your espresso + milk. Play Nice was named so due to the fact that it will play nice brewed any way and mixed with any flavoring.
We strongly recommend purchasing this coffee as whole bean and grinding it fresh just before brewing. For best results, use a grind setting of 5–6 on the Moccamaster KM5 Grinder or a medium-coarse grind on other grinders.
This coffee ships directly from the roaster to ensure peak freshness. All coffee sales are final.
What makes good coffee so good? It comes down to the coffee solubles extracted into your water. The coffee industry has defined scientific benchmarks for perfectly brewed coffee, called the Four T's.
Temperature
A consistent brewing temperature between 196°F - 205°F is essential for the extraction of coffee solubles.
Time
A saturation time of 4 - 6 minutes releases the full flavor of the coffee without over- or under-extracting it.
Turbulence
Agitation of the coffee grounds generated as the water flows through the grounds creates even saturation.
Total Dissolved Solids (TDS)
This is the ratio of coffee solubles to water that the brewer extracts. The ECBC defines ideal TDS yield as between 18% - 22%, and the SCA refers to this as “the Golden Cup.” Moccamaster coffee brewers hit this mark every brew cycle.
