About Spectrum Natural Carbonic Maceration Geisha Coffee
Introduced in 2022, Spectrum uses ripe whole cherries sealed in stainless-steel tanks for 100 hours. Controlled CO₂ additions and monitoring of temperature and pH regulate fermentation, encouraging fruit and floral aromatics before natural drying. Explore it with other specialty coffee selections available through Espresso Outlet.
The tasting notes are sensory descriptions, not added flavors unless explicitly stated. Grind, water chemistry, roast development and extraction influence acidity, sweetness, body, clarity and finish.

Brewing Guidance
For filter coffee, start near a 1:16 brew ratio with water around 200–205°F and a medium-fine grind. If the cup tastes sharp or hollow, grind finer to raise extraction; if the finish is dry, grind coarser. For espresso, begin with an 18 g dose and a 40–45 g beverage yield to encourage clarity.
A capable Turin grinder makes small grind adjustments repeatable. If you brew concentrated drinks, compare compatible Turin espresso machines and weigh both dose and beverage yield.
