The Lab - Our Arlington coffee extraction Methods
We are incredibly selective with our coffee choices and nothing short of MAD scientists when it comes to pouring the perfect cup. We love the simplicity/complexity of making coffee and we understand that different extraction methods can yield different and palatable experiences. If you have a few moments, let our baristas near Arlington assist in finding your ideal coffee profile and taste.
Find out more below on a few of our brewing methods:
Pour-Over
This method is utilized for an on demand and crisp taste. Your barista will pair your choice of bean with the appropriate grind size, temperature of water, and extraction time and weight. About 5-7 minutes for completion, but trust us, its worth the extra wait!
Small batch Drip
We only brew 2 gallons at a time. Our airpots do not sit for longer than an hour. Guaranteed to be fresh and lively.
Cold flash
Our drip process over ice. We make small batch cold brew with hot water to get the most flavorful extraction and instantly cool it down to be served as cold brew.
Japanese Slow Drip
Kyoto style extraction process involving water and coffee beans that meet drip by drip over 14-18 hours. This creates a cold brew that is by far the most flavorful with low acidity and distinctive tasting notes of our coffees. Served chilled, over ice, or diluted with water to taste. Warning this is an incredibly caffeinated experience!
French Press
Ground coffee and hot water perfectly meshed together to create a robust cup. Still one of the top ways to make coffee.
