What makes the Tricolate different?


Eliminates uneven input whilst brewing:

An engineered shower head has been designed to disperse water evenly across the coffee at not only a consistent height but also at a specific flow rate.

--

Better coverage:

A more efficient saturation can be achieved for the bloom part of brewing, wetting all of the coffee grounds in seconds without needing to stir.

--

No more high and dry coffee grounds:

The vertical walls result in all of the coffee being in all of the water all of the time.

--

Laboratory grade filter paper:

The German manufactured paper delivers a more consistent pore structure. With a smaller filter size than other devices you get less paper taint in your coffee.

--

Extract more coffee:

The 80mm wide flat brew bed increases surface area and allows for more even water to coffee contact, this results in a higher extraction.

--

No need for an expensive goose neck kettle:

Achieve much higher extraction yields than ever before. Taste coffee that has greater balance, sweetness and clarity.

--

Packaging & Material:

For the best heat stability and durability the device is made from Tritan® plastic. Tritan® doesn’t contain BPA, BPS or any other bisphenols. It is a clear plastic that retains its colour and gloss even after hundreds of dishwasher cycles. The device is injection moulded in Australia.

 

Coffee Roasting: Best Practices is the culmination of Scott's 25 years roasting and consulting. It's the most advanced guide ever written about expert-level coffee roasting. There is little overlap with The Coffee Roaster's Companion, which focused on the basics of roasting and different roasting machines. CR:BP focuses solely on advanced techniques to craft and control roast curves, with numerous pages devoted to strategies to avoid "ROR" crashes and flicks, baked coffee, unnecessary roasty-ness, and other roast defects. This book sets the standard for third-wave coffee roasting methodology.

About the Author

Scott Rao started his first cafe & roastery in Amherst, MA when he was 22. That first cafe quickly became an institution, serving well over 1000 customers per day and tripling the sales volume of the Starbucks down the street. After selling his first cafe, Scott went on to work in the New Zealand coffee industry. He then returned to the US to open a restaurant and coffee roastery inspired by his travels down under. Scott later founded a pioneering cafe in Montreal that influenced coffee making worldwide.

Upon selling his second business, Scott began writing books about coffee making in the hopes of helping roasters and baristas become more educated and systematic in their approach to coffee. Scott parlayed those books into a consulting career and now spends his time consulting for coffee roasters around the world, teaching the world's most advanced roasting masterclasses, and designing next-generation coffee equipment.

Scott secretly likes Sencha tea more than coffee, is baffled about why anyone drinks naturals, and would probably do a free consulting job for you if your business happens to be located on a warm surf beach.

The Coffee Roaster's Companion is the world's first professional-level how-to book about coffee roasting. Scott Rao has been a roaster for over two decades and has consulted for hundreds of the world's finest roasters, using over 250 roasting machines in his career. Scott has put his expertise into this book to help educate roasters everywhere. No serious coffee roaster should go without this book.

Where coffee comes from, how it was harvested, the roasting process and the water used to make the brew are just a few of the factors that influence the taste of what we drink.  World champion barista, and coffee roaster, James Hoffmann examines these key factors, looking at varieties of coffee, the influence of terroir, how it is harvested and processed, the roasting methods used, through to the way in which the beans are brewed.

Country by country - from Bolivia to Zambia - he then identifies key characteristics and the methods that determine the quality of that country's output.  Along the way we learn about everything from the development of the espresso machine, to why strength guides on supermarket coffee are really not good news.  This is the first book to chart the coffee production of over 35 countries, encompassing knowledge never previously published outside the coffee industry.  For everyone who wants to understand more about coffee and its wonderful nuances and possibilities, this is the book to have.

About the Author

James Hoffmann has been involved with the specialty coffee industry for more than 12 years,  and throughout has been motivated to make speciality coffee more accessible to consumers. Being the 2006 & 2007 UK Barista Championship, 2007 World Barista Champion, 2008 UK Cup Tasting Champion and the UK Brewers cup champion in 2011, he built a reputation for his knowledge and skill. In his quest to make London famous for its good coffee, he founded Square Mile Coffee Roasters where currently is the Managing Director.

He worked in training, education, and as a product and business development consultant to innovate in a way that is beneficial to the broader industry. Among these projects is the creation of the VA388 Black Eagle espresso machine with Nuova Simonelli, along with the Mythos One grinder. As founder of the Coffee Jobs Board, he has fostered a community within coffee.

He has written for more than a decade in his acclaimed personal coffee blog and recently on his Youtube channel, where he has accomplished his purpose to share with the coffee community and with the industry his knowledge, thoughts and learnings. The World Atlas of Coffee, published in 2014, is his first book.

NB: Brewer does NOT come with filters. They can be ordered separately here.

The Clever Coffee Dripper allows for an incredibly smooth brewed cup of coffee, dispensed easily and without the mess!  This is a free-standing, one cup coffee brewer with so many benefits:

- it's relatively inexpensive

- it's virtually unbreakable, yet lightweight

- it's free-standing (allowing you to set the entire brew up on a scale to measure your coffee dose)

- it's commercially viable because it doesn't take monitoring to produce a consistent brew

The Clever Coffee Dripper differs from other "pour over" methods, or percolators, in that you can control the intensity of the brew by dispensing it when ready by simply placing it over a coffee cup.  You can adjust one variable at a time (water temperature, amount of grounds, time in brewer) to yield the perfect brew.  All you need is a coffee cup, some number 4, flat bottom cone-shaped paper filters and some freshly ground coffee.

1. Set the paper filter inside and rinse with boiling water.

2. Add 35 grams of ground coffee and 350ml boiling water to begin the brewing process.  Let steep.

3. Using a spoon, gently submerge any grounds which are still floating.  Let it steep for another few minutes.

4. Sit the Clever Coffee Dripper on a glass or cup and your brew is complete!

The Clever Coffee Dripper is BPA-free and should be hand washed.  Take care not to touch the bottom of the brewer throughout the brewing process as the liquid is meant to be easily released.

What's cooler than being cool? THESE TOTES!

Dear Coffee Buyer by Ryan Brown is the first ever book dedicated to the profession of green coffee buying. Brown's vivid descriptions and engaging prose make readers feel like they’re right there with him: tagging along to taste hundreds of coffee samples during a twenty-hour stop in Guatemala, feeling his nervous excitement when he takes a spontaneous buying trip to Honduras with little more than a backpack, and sharing his frustration and determination to find farmers and exporters willing to offer exceptional coffees.

Along the way, Brown takes an in-depth look at coffee bean varieties, processing, origins, cupping, forecasting, and pricing. He even interviews other legendary coffee buyers to get their take on the skills needed to begin a successful career in coffee buying. Dear Coffee Buyer will change the way a generation of baristas, roasters, and green buyers views 'direct trade,' seasonality, the Geisha variety, and the complex challenges of getting beans halfway around the world, from the farm to the cup.

About the Author

Ryan Brown has been a barista, roaster, green coffee buyer, digital product manager, and marketer. He founded the revolutionary roasting and coffee-sourcing program at Ritual Roasters in San Francisco, oversaw buying for several origins at Stumptown Coffee, developed Central American relations for the Colombia-based Virmax/Caravela, and created award-winning coffee subscription products at Tonx and Blue Bottle Coffee.

From Scott: "When I began in the coffee business in 1993, I had read every book I could find about coffee. After reading all of those books, however, I felt as if I hadn't learned much about how to make great coffee. My coffee library was chock-full of colorful descriptions of brewing styles, growing regions, and recipes, with a few almost-unreadable scientific books mixed in. I would have traded in all of those books for one serious, practical book with relevant instruction about making great coffee in a café. After being in the coffee business for 15 years, I decided someone needed to write that book, so I wrote The Professional Barista’s Handbook."

Adam's recommendation: There is also an excellent supplement to this book from Scott (only available as a Kindle e-book) that goes further in-depth into espresso extraction mechanics and behaviour - linked here.

How To Use:

To prepare the filter cartridge, soak the filter in tap water for 10 minutes.

NOTE: This soaking process should be completed with every new Peak Water Filter Cartridge.

When your Filter has come to the end of its life, you will need to remove and replace it with a fresh one. Here’s how:

Simply hold the dial in the RELEASE position, remove the Lid and use the ring pull to lift the Filter up and out of the Liner.

NOTE: Remember to prime each new Filter, as outlined above.

You could say it was a ‘watershed’ moment for the coffee industry when three-time UK barista champion Maxwell Colonna-Dashwood and PhD chemist Christopher Hendon co-wrote the book ‘Water for Coffee’ in 2015. The book highlighted the very real effect of water quality on the result in the cup.

Lively discussions abounded both at professional specialty coffee events and online, culminating in a sort watery milestone last week when a dedicated water forum was established as part of the influential online community Home-Barista.com. The book also set the stage for a variety of water treatment products, like Aquiem and Third Wave Water, which have since emerged to help people manage this fundamental variable more effectively.

Now Colonna-Dashwood and Hendon have returned to make another splash (as it were), with their Peak Water jug offering. Drawing on their knowledge and the perspectives originally offered in the book, they have created a handy, cost-effective household-style filter pitcher which aims to transform regular tap water into something closer to ideal for brewing coffee.

The Peak Water Jug comes with:

- Jug Body
- Liner

- Lid & Bypass Pin

- Filter Cartridge

- 2x Water Test Strips

Specifications:

 Jug size: 220mm (L) x 270mm (W) x 110mm (D)

Water Chamber: holds 1.2ltrs of filtered water

Weight: ~450g

Scott's second book covers all of the major non-espresso forms of coffee brewing. Broken up into three parts, Everything but Espresso covers the following:

Part One - Coffee extraction, extraction measurement, and how to manipulate flavor by changing brewing parameters

Part Two - How to optimize various brewing methods, such as drip, pour over, press pot, and vacuum pot.

Part Three - Proper water chemistry and bean storage.

If you're either an espresso aficionado who wants to spread their wings or someone who cherishes their old press pot, this book is the definitive guide to making the best possible brew at home.
