Our New Grind Size Options

We're updating our bags and you'll soon notice a range of different grind options appearing on the back.

The default option for our coffees will remain whole beans, and the options on the grind selection drop-down menu of our website will remain unchanged so if you currently order pre-ground coffee from us, you won't need to do anything.

Below is a handy-dandy list showing where various brew methods fall within our range of grind options, but if you have any questions please feel 100% comfortable reaching out to us via our contact form (which can be found here) as we’re ready and ever-so happy to help make sure you’re getting the coffee you want.

If you place an order and end up with a pre-ground option that doesn’t quite work for you and your setup, please get in touch with what’s happening (is your coffee brewing too quickly? too slowly? tasting too strong? etc) and we’ll do our very best to get everything sorted out for you.
