About Bonus Track No 1 - Espresso
Like with a favorite album, when everything has been played and there's still one more song: that's exactly what Bonus Track is – an unexpected but generous extra. Behind the name: we buy coffee on firm, long-term commitments, directly from producers. They set their own prices, we pay them in full, and we plan our volumes at minimum a year in advance. That creates more security on the farm. But it also means that if our demand grows more slowly than expected, the risk stays with us. Throwing the coffee away or letting it sit is out of the question. Instead, we're making room for the new harvest with a coffee that's easy to love and ideal for everyday drinking.
The coffee and the producer: Bonus Track No. 1 is a washed Parainema, produced by Hidardo Hernández at Finca Cascaritas in Honduras. Since Warawul started, we've had the honor of hosting Hidardo in Berlin twice. These are welcome opportunities for us to give him a look behind the scenes of our roastery and café, and to hear directly from him about the challenges and successes facing Cascaritas Farm and CAFESMO. An in-person exchange like this is a privilege we don't take for granted.
Brewing recommendation for Bonus Track No 1 - Espresso
Chris recommends the following recipe for brewing Bonus Track No 1 - Espresso with the espresso machine
Very finely ground so that the shot with the ratio 19 g in and 40 g out is pulled at around 26 seconds. Results in a well balanced acidity profile with an intense sweetness of caramel and chocolate. Shorter shot times result in a profile closer to ripe orange.
