Mini coffee info guide: What to pay attention to in order to drink better coffee?
Freshly roasted and ground coffee
Use coffee that has not been roasted more than 6 months ago. For maximum flavor and aroma, grind it just before preparation.
Storage
Store the coffee in a room that does not exceed 22°C. It is mainly damaged by heat and light. You can also store coffee in the freezer. Coffee's enemy is oxygen, so always squeeze the air out of the bag before closing.
Grinding
Different preparations require different grinds. Turkish coffee needs the finest, followed by espresso and cafeteria. For filter coffee, we need coarser ground coffee. The coarsest grinding is for the French press.
Water
We recommend using filtered water. The taste of the coffee will be better, and you will also protect your devices from limescale.
Temperature
Coffee is sensitive to temperature. In all preparations, it should not exceed 94-95°C. For cold brew coffee, use cold water, to which you can also add ice cubes.
Cleanliness
Regularly clean your coffee machines and accessories, including the grinder and water heater. Limescale affects the taste of water and consequently coffee.

THE ART OF PRODUCTION:
Robusta is not as popular as Arabica coffee, accounting for only 21% of the farm’s production. But that could be changing, as the 10 hectares that Alex has dedicated to Robusta on his Santa Isabel plantation have yielded a naturally sweet coffee with beautifully pronounced fruit notes. The secret to this exceptional taste lies in the use of the “honey process” method in processing Robusta. Although this method is not new, it is still rare for Robusta coffee. In this process, the cherries are peeled but dried without washing, so some of the fruit pulp remains. Unlike the natural process, most of the cherry is removed, but some of the sticky, honey-like layer remains, which gives the method its name.
REGION DESCRIPTION:
Pueblo Nuevo Viña is a small town in the northern part of the Santa Rosa region. The area is not known for producing specialty coffee, which is why the efforts at the Santa Isabel estate are something special. The region is home to the Tecuamburro volcano, which formed 38,000 years ago. Tecuamburro is a conical volcano composed of many layers of solidified lava and tephra. On the southern slope of the volcano is Laguna de Ixpaco, a rare sulfur lake. Being a volcanic area, there are large differences in altitude, and the soil is naturally rich in minerals. The main economic activities are agriculture and some livestock farming. In addition to coffee, sugarcane, corn, potatoes, beans and rice are grown.
