Varietal: Mundo Novo

Novo Horizonte

Deivid runs the farm together with his wife Linda, but both have begun to notice the effects of greater climate instability. Less defined seasonal weather patterns are bad for the yield of coffee plants, and makes processing difficult. The Moreno family’s more traditional Mundo Novo varietal trees are especially susceptible to damage from adverse conditions, like the long droughts and frosts we have seen in Brazil over the past couple of years. Making the right compromises between yield, stability and quality is a difficult balancing act, and here Deivid and his family tend to err towards quality, finding buyers willing to pay a premium for his well prepared small lots.

Again this year, their natural Mundo Novo is one of the cleanest and sweetest we have tasted from Brazil, with the traditional chocolate and nut notes joined by a dense sweetness, and some fresh berry acidity.

Jonathan

Brewing coffee is the first thing that I do every morning. The brewing process functions as a daily meditative practice that helps me to center myself and reminds me to appreciate the simple and harmonious aspects of life.

Mette

My first cup of coffee of the day is always in the morning. I get out of bed a bit before the rest of the family, and while I make oatmeal for the kids, I make myself a cup of coffee.

Juuso

Specialty coffee is like modern-day meditation for me. Overall it’s quality over quantity. Doing a pour over helps to slow down after a busy work day.

Method

We have two standard recipes that can highlight different attributes of our coffees on espresso, whilst still being transparent in flavour profile.

Bright and Soft

When brewing a coffee with a brighter character, often with high density, we aim for a brighter expression in the cup and more separation between flavours, while sacrificing intensity and body. We do this by using a longer ratio and higher brew temperature, but a faster brew time.

Rich and Sweet

When brewing coffees with a richer and sweeter profile, we aim to highlight this in the cup, with greater intensity of texture and flavour. This recipe is especially effective when combined with milk, where we often prefer naturally processed coffees such as our range from Brazil.

Combining with milk

In order to create a balanced milk beverage, you can vary the size of your espresso while maintaining the same ratio. For an example, for our standard cup sizes, we would suggest the following coffee doses and final espresso weights, if using the ‘rich and sweet’ recipe.

For our standard ‘medium’ milk beverage, in a 180 ml cup, we recommend the following recipe, again when combined with the ‘rich and sweet’ recipe.

15g in

37,5g out

32 seconds

~140ml steamed milk

Brewing

Espresso

Here we recommend resting your coffee for even longer, in our bars in Aarhus we try to use coffee that has been roasted more than 3 weeks ago for espresso. Espresso is also measured slightly differently, here we measure the ratio of dry coffee to the yield of espresso in the cup. For this we recommend placing a small set of scales under your cup as you brew, to measure the weight of espresso as it falls. When we brew our coffees, we recommend starting with a 1:2 ratio of dry coffee to espresso yield, and using the same rules as above to adjust grind size.
