The Producer
The Juanachute micromill, started by Luis Anastasio Castro, was one of the first mills of its kind. The Juanachute operation consists of several different plots throughout the Los Santos region and a mill close to the town of San Pablo. The micromill is one of the few at which the entire process is controlled. From planting the coffee trees to sealing the jute bags of green coffee, it is all under the supervision of Don Tacho. The Castro family also owns a small roastery and coffee shop in the town of San Pablo.
The Lot
This lot was named for Don Tacho himself and underwent Red Honey processing at Juanachute. Freshly harvested coffee cherries were first fermented whole for 48 hours. The fermented cherries were then pulped with water before being moved to the drying area. The coffee was dried on sun exposed raised beds for approximately 25 days and then finished in a drum drying oven to ensure consistency.
How we brew it
Prep |
Use a scale to measure your dose and yield (= brewed liquid). Use soft water (100-150ppm). |
Step 1 |
Grind 18g of coffee at a very fine espresso setting |
Step 2 |
Distribute the coffee evenly in your portafilter and tamp level. |
Step 3 |
Lock in the portafilter, gentle but firm. Don't crack the coffee bed. |
Step 4 |
Start the machine. Measure 40g of brewed liquid in your cup in 29 seconds. |
Step 5 |
If the coffee runs too fast, grind finer. If the coffee runs too slow, grind coarser. |
