With a drink ratio of 1:2.3\/1:2.4 and an extraction time of 26-29 seconds, we get a super structured cup where the acidity and sweetness are very harmonious. This coffee has a very complex acidity for a Robusta, accompanied by a full-bodied and very soft texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you pull the coffee at the same brewing ratio for 31-33 seconds, you lose a bit of the compact structure, but gain even more body and a pleasant bitterness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0787\/3577\/files\/Maro_Standard_9bar.webp?v=1778221316\" alt=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy does the coffee taste the way it does?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe WITOCA Cooperative specializes in special processing methods. In addition to washed Canephoras, they make many honeys and increasingly naturals - though the high humidity in the Amazon region places high demands on post-harvest processes. The naturals, coffees dried in the cherry like this one, WITOCA can make in August and September when there is hardly any rain. The fermentation of over 120 hours in a sealed barrel creates the berry aromas of the coffee.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis natural of the Canephora variety Napa Payamino convinced us. This variety is a local clone and produces very large beans. The coffee itself brings considerable acidity, and the intensive post-harvest process gives the coffee berry and chocolate notes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy did we buy this coffee?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGiomar Hidalgo, or simply Gio, roasted and served coffee, and now she imports it from her home country Ecuador. The WITOCA Cooperative in the Amazon is a small cooperative that Gio co-founded. They receive coffee from 13 families, all of whom practice agroforestry, growing between existing trees. Using the native Chakra cultivation method, they forgo external inputs and protect the rainforest.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis coffee shows, like hardly any other, how Canephora (Robusta), so often maligned, can taste when the same precision and philosophy as top Arabicas is applied. It demonstrates the diversity of coffee and teaches us all to reconsider our acquired tastes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow do we roast this coffee?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe roast the Napa Payamino from WITOCA as a 15kg batch, so with somewhat more coffee than we would roast a filter coffee, but with less coffee than we roast other complex espressos (20kg). Why? Because we prefer a fast roast for Canephoras. Canephoras contain twice as much chlorogenic acid and break down during the roasting process into caffeine and quinic acid, which in longer and hotter roasts can lead to more bitterness. With the short roast at a lower end temperature, we retain the naturally occurring freshness in the coffee and focus on the silky texture.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eShipping also possible via Coffee Letter\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAll our coffees can be ordered in the form of the Coffee Letter. It is treated like a regular letter and arrives in your mailbox. This reduces postage for 250g of coffee from 7 to 2.5 francs.
