Get better-tasting coffee with the Amokka Brewing Compass
With our simplified brewing compass you can easily fine-tune your Amokka Coffee® to your preferred taste. Our goal is to deliver a better-tasting coffee every day. We do all we can to select the best coffee beans, roast them to perfection, pack them safely and ship them directly to you.
The recipe for brewing the coffee on TopBrewer is specially made for our way of roasting Amokka Coffee® with the aim to make a balanced coffee (center of the brewing compass).
Now it's up to you to make the final fine-tuning so the coffee fits your preferred taste.
See below how you read the compass and do your changes to affect the taste.
How to affect the taste
If you want to shift the taste of your coffee towards the right side of the compass you should grind finer. To make a shift to the left you should grind coarser.
To achieve stronger taste you can use more coffee or less water, for a weaker taste you can use less coffee or more water.
