• Medium roast development for balance between origin character and roast sweetness

How should I brew this ground coffee to get the best cup?

Wicked Joe Sumatra ground is prepared for standard drip machines and manual pour-over methods. Use a clean brew setup, filtered water near 195–205°F, and a coffee-to-water ratio that matches your strength preference to showcase its full-bodied profile.

• Suggested ratio: 1:15–1:17 (coffee to water) for balanced strength
• Use a medium grind suitable for drip or pour-over to avoid over- or under-extraction
