Brewing Coffee at Home

Taking the Plunge
When brewing coffee at home in your french press using the right coffee is really important - many people have told us that they don't like plunger coffee but we think that is because they were using supermarket coffee.
We recommend Bodum because their filter screen is the most resilient.
We also recommend Barrington Blend
Our showroom full of home coffee makers is located in Maitland - conveniently located for residents of Port Stephens and Newcastle
Cold Brew
Brewing with Bialetti
Taking the Plunge
What's with this cold brew?
Basically you brew your coffee in cold water. Something everyone should add to their arsenal of home coffee makers!
The real trick is how long you brew and which coffee you choose - much like French Press (Plunger).
Our BodyBrew is the easiest way to brew and store your Cold Brew when brewing coffee at home.
Have a look at some of our
Paterson Blend and Barrington Blend from River Roast are also pretty damn good!

Aeropress
Fresh or Frozen
Brewing with Bialetti
The Aeropress - Whether you are brewing coffee at home or on the road why not use one of the most popular home coffee makers.
Easy and definitely functional.
Use for hot brew, cold brew, stick on a Fellow and get yourself an espresso.
Use an Able Stainless Filter for a bolder brew.
The list goes on.
We recommend the Rhino Grinder for Aeropress.

Fresh or Frozen
Ideally you want to use fresh beans BUT beans only stay fresh for a relatively short time so if you are brewing coffee at home and you're in a position where you are buying coffee once a fortnight for example then it is better to freeze some so the ageing process is stalled.
Freshness and stability are very important for home coffee makers particularly for Espresso Machines!

Frequently Asked Coffee Questions
and Some Statements:
- I've read that you shouldn't freeze coffee (See Fresh or Frozen)
- How often should I clean my coffee maker? - (One of Coffee's main ingredients is Caffeol which is Coffee Oil) - Oil will go rancid very quickly when exposed to air so you need to clean the oil off with a mild detergent regardless of what sort of coffee maker you have.
