How to Prepare the Perfect Cup of Jungle Brew Coffee

Coffee is more than just a morning ritual – it's an experience you can tailor to your taste. To get the most out of your cup of Jungle Brew, it's essential to focus on the preparation. In this article, we’ll go through the best methods to make the perfect coffee.

1. Quality Coffee and Water Are Key

For a perfect cup, you need two main ingredients: quality coffee and good water. Jungle Brew is 100% Arabica with a rich flavor that unfolds best with proper preparation.

  • Use filtered water to avoid unwanted flavors from chlorine or minerals.

  • The ideal water temperature for extraction is 90-96°C – boiling water can burn the coffee and ruin its delicate flavors.

2. The Right Coffee-to-Water Ratio

Each brewing method has its own ideal coffee-to-water ratio. Recommended ratios:

  • Espresso: 18-20g of coffee per 36-40ml of water

  • French Press: 1:15 (e.g., 20g of coffee per 300ml of water)

  • V60 / Drip Coffee: 1:16 (e.g., 25g of coffee per 400ml of water)

  • Cold Brew: 1:8 (e.g., 100g of coffee per 800ml of cold water)

3. Brewing Methods

Espresso ☕️

  • Requires an espresso machine.

  • Coffee should be ground to a fine consistency.

  • Extraction should take 25-30 seconds.

  • The result is a strong and intense coffee with a rich crema.

French Press 🧁

  • Uses coarse grind.

  • Pour hot water over the coffee, stir, and let it steep for 4 minutes.

  • After four minutes, press the plunger down and serve.

  • The result is a full-bodied coffee with a strong texture.

V60 / Drip Coffee ☕

  • Uses a medium-coarse grind.

  • Pour hot water over the coffee in circular motions.

  • Total extraction time should be 2.5 - 3 minutes.

Cold Brew 🌬

  • Uses a very coarse grind.

  • Pour cold water over the coffee and let it steep for 12-16 hours in the fridge.

  • Strain through a filter and serve over ice.

  • The result is a smooth, less acidic, and refreshing coffee.

4. Experiment with Additions
