Storage/Preparation of Kopi Luwak
 

The following tips will help in brewing a great cup of authentic Kopi Luwak coffee. You will also find them helpful in preparing any fine roast:

Storage-
We take the utmost care to ensure that our beans are shipped as fresh as the day we receive
them (often it is). We recommend storing Kopi Luwak in a clean, dry, dark location. Coffee does not require refrigeration. The beans will keep indefinitely, but for maximum flavor we recommend using them within two weeks of arrival. If you will be storing your supply of Kopi Luwak longer than two weeks, we recommend keeping them in the freezer.

However, like exposure to air, freezing coffee can have a damaging effect. If freezing is
necessary, make sure to use an airtight container.

Grinding-
Be sure not to over grind. We recommend grinding beans until they are about the consistency of course sea salt. Your coffee maker may have further recommendations for what type of grind will produce the best results. Grind enough beans to produce approximately 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per serving.

Of course, we will single-batch grind any order for you upon request.

Brewing-
Preparing a good cup of Kopi Luwak is no more difficult than ordinary coffee. Of course,
steps can be taken to ensure maximum flavor. Starting with filtered or spring water is
recommended. Tap water could potentially impart flavors to the coffee. As mentioned above, a good guideline is to use 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per 6-ounce cup. If you wish to
brew espresso, use 7-8 grams for a single shot. These amounts can be adjusted for personal
taste. If your brewer has a time control, brew for 4.5-5 minutes, and serve steaming hot. Enjoy!
