Our coffees are roasted daily and shipped to you at peak flavour. We aim to deliver all our coffees within 2-7 days of roasting so you get the best flavour for as long as possible.

The most important factor affecting caffeine content is the weight of coffee used, not the brewing method. Here's how it works:

• More coffee = More caffeine: Using 30g (6.5 tablespoons) instead of 22g (5 tablespoons) increases caffeine by approximately 36%
• Brewing method matters less: The extraction efficiency varies only slightly between methods
• Personal control: You can easily adjust caffeine levels by changing the coffee dose

Quick Caffeine Reference:

• Light caffeine (under 50mg): Single espresso from any coffee, or any decaf brew
• Moderate caffeine (50-150mg): Double espresso, standard V60, half caf options
• Higher caffeine (150mg+): French press with full dose, or increasing coffee weight in any method

Grind Size Guide:

• Fine (like table salt): For espresso machines - allows proper extraction under pressure
• Medium (like caster sugar): For pour over methods like V60 - balanced extraction
• Coarse (like sea salt): For French press - prevents over-extraction during long steeping

1. For stronger caffeine: Increase coffee dose rather than over-extracting
2. For milder caffeine: Choose half caf or decaf, or reduce coffee weight
3. Consistent dosing: Use scales for repeatable caffeine levels, but tablespoons work in a pinch
4. Time awareness: Remember our recommendation to switch to half caf or decaf from 3pm for better sleep
5. Grind fresh: Always grind just before brewing for the best flavour and caffeine extraction

All caffeine levels are lab-tested estimates based on 4.5g per tablespoon. Individual sensitivity varies, and we recommend staying within 300-400mg daily depending on your weight and tolerance.
