Brewing guidance
Because the grind is fixed for automatic drip, begin near a 1:16 brew ratio and keep the dose consistent between samples. Compare extraction, body, acidity and finish after each coffee cools.
Use these numbers as a starting recipe, not a fixed rule. Coffee age, water chemistry, brewer geometry and roast development affect solubility. Change one variable at a time and taste as the cup cools; this makes it easier to judge body, acidity, clarity and finish. Whole-bean coffee may also benefit from a short degassing period before final dialing in.
Choosing and storing this coffee
Four 3 oz samples, all pre-ground for automatic drip; grind cannot be changed. Choose the option that matches your brewer because pre-ground coffee cannot be adjusted after arrival. Keep the package tightly sealed in a cool, dry cabinet away from heat, sunlight, moisture and strong odors.
