Guatemala Ixlama

We recommend tailoring the exact amount of coffee to your portafilter basket size - a general good rule of thumb is to then use approximately 2 parts water for every 1 part coffee as a starting point. We typically brew this coffee with 17g - 18g of coffee and 36g - 45g yield. If you have trouble achieving very even particle sizing, good flow rate, or high extraction times, you should opt for a higher yield to tame acidity.

Important note: espresso results vary greatly based on grinder type, burr usage, age of roast, water used, type of espresso machine, default portafilter basket size, & more!

A great starting point for filter brewing is at a 1:16 ratio, adjusting final recipe based on strength preferences. If you're looking for a specific brew method, please don't hesitate to reach out.

High-grown Guatemalan coffees tend to be quite dense and you may find yourself using a relatively finer grind to achieve higher extractions. You may opt for the higher end with brew water temperature to aid with extraction, but we would not exceed 205F.
