Let’s be real—coffee shops are cool, but nothing beats the vibe of making your own perfect cup at home. The good news? You don’t need to be a “coffee snob” to brew like a pro. At Noir Coffee, we believe coffee is for everyone—bold, fresh, and totally on your terms.

Step 1: Start with Fresh Beans

Rule number one—ditch the stale supermarket coffee. Freshly roasted beans = fresh taste. Noir Coffee beans are roasted in small batches, which means you get the real flavor every time.

Step 2: Choose Your Gear (Don’t Overcomplicate It)

• French Press → Smooth, rich, and super forgiving. Perfect for beginners.

• Pour-Over → Clean, crisp flavors for when you want to taste every note.

• Moka Pot → Strong, espresso-style kick without the fancy machine.

• Cold Brew → Low effort, high reward. Just patience and fridge space.

Step 3: Grind Matters (Like, a Lot)

The grind size changes everything:

• Fine grind → Espresso vibes.

• Medium grind → Pour-over & drip machines.

• Coarse grind → French press & cold brew.

Pro tip: Always grind fresh. Pre-ground coffee loses its soul (and flavor).

Step 4: Nail the Coffee-to-Water Ratio

Golden rule: 1:15 (1 part coffee, 15 parts water). Example—20g coffee to 300ml water. Adjust if you like it stronger or lighter.

Step 5: Experiment & Own Your Brew

Noir Coffee is all about finding your style. Some people vibe with fruity notes from Baarbara Estate; others love the bold chocolate tones of Ratnagiri. Play around until you find your match.

Final Pour

Brewing at home isn’t about rules—it’s about the ritual. The smell of fresh grounds, the slow pour, the first sip that wakes up your soul. With Noir Coffee, you’re not just drinking—you’re curating your vibe, one cup at a time.
