How to brew Guatemala Fine Robusta in a Moka pot

1. Prepare the water. Fill the Moka pot's lower chamber without exceeding the safety valve, following the manufacturer's instructions.
2. Fill the filter basket. Use coffee ground for a Moka pot, distribute it evenly, and level it without tamping.
3. Close the coffee maker. Wipe the rim clean and screw the two parts together securely.
4. Brew over moderate heat. Keep the flame beneath the base and reduce or turn off the heat when the flow becomes irregular, following the instructions for your Moka pot.
5. Stir and serve. Gently stir the coffee in the upper chamber and pour it into cups, taking care around hot surfaces.

Tips for espresso

Choose the whole-bean option and grind for espresso. Start with the doses and settings recommended for your machine and basket, then adjust the grind in small increments. If the result is too bitter or unbalanced, change one variable at a time rather than changing the dose, temperature, and grind all at once.

Storage

Reseal the package tightly after each use and store it in a cool, dry place away from light, heat, and strong odors. Follow the instructions on the label.
