Chocolate-Led Peaberry Espresso

This washed Tanzanian peaberry is roasted for espresso, bringing together chocolate depth, brown sugar sweetness and a smooth jammy finish. A rich, approachable cup with enough gentle fruit character to keep it lively.

Origin Story

Sourced from Tanzania’s southern highlands, this coffee is a peaberry blend produced by smallholder farmers across multiple villages and washing stations. Rather than a typical mixed screen lot, peaberries were carefully sorted from several washing stations to create a dedicated peaberry selection.

The lot is grown between 1,200–1,900 MASL and includes cultivars such as Blue Mountain, Bourbon, Kilimanjaro and Luwiro, alongside other local varieties. After harvest, cherries are delivered to washing stations in the afternoon, depulped, soaked, washed clean of mucilage and dried over 9–14 days. The result is a clean, sweet espresso with cocoa structure, soft jammy fruit and mellow juicy acidity.

Brewing Notes

Roasted with espresso in mind. Best enjoyed as a flat white, cappuccino, long black or straight espresso. Start with 18g in, 36g out, around 28–32 seconds. Push the yield slightly longer for extra sweetness, or keep it tighter for a richer milk coffee.

Sustainability & Quality

At Elusive Coffee, we source coffees with traceability, character and cup quality at the centre. This Tanzania lot celebrates the work of smallholder farmers and the careful sorting required to create a dedicated peaberry selection. We roast in small batches in South Australia and use our QA process to monitor roast consistency, development and flavour clarity.

Filter Coffee Brewing Guide (V60, Chemex, etc.)

Filter coffee offers a clean, smooth, and balanced cup that highlights the subtleties of the beans. Whether you’re using a V60, Chemex, or any other pour-over method, this brewing process allows the coffee’s natural flavors to shine, delivering a lighter yet full-bodied experience.

Below is our standard receipe for V60

Brewing Instructions:

  • 17:1 Ratio
  • Coffee Dose: 17.6of freshly ground coffee.
  • Water: 300g of water, heated to around 93°C (200°F).

Pouring Method:

  1. First Pour: Start with 60g of water for the bloom. Let it sit for around 30-45 seconds to release the gases.
  2. Second Pour: Add another 60g of water and wait.
  3. Final Pours: Continue with three pours of 60g each, waiting for the water to draw down between pours.

This 5-pour method ensures even extraction, enhancing the clarity and depth of your brew, while allowing the flavors to fully develop for a perfect cup of filter coffee.

Espresso Coffee Brewing Guide (Espresso, Long Black)

Espresso offers a smooth, rich, and bold flavor profile, perfect for those who enjoy the concentrated intensity of a traditional shot. Whether you’re savoring it as a solo espresso or as a balanced long black, this brewing method brings out the coffee’s depth, body, and natural sweetness.

Brewing Instructions

  • Coffee Dose: 18g of freshly ground coffee.
  • Yield: 36-40g (2:1 ratio).
  • Extraction Time: Aim for 25-35 seconds.
  • Best Age: For optimal flavor, use 14 days after roasting.

Brewing Method

Grind and Dose:

  • Use a fine grind size suitable for espresso machines.
  • Weigh out 18g of coffee for consistency.

Tamp and Prep:

  • Distribute the coffee evenly in the portafilter.
  • Tamp firmly and evenly to ensure uniform extraction.

Extraction:

  • Start the espresso shot and aim for a yield of 36-40g.
  • Adjust your grind or extraction time to fall within the 25-35 second range.

Serve:

  • Enjoy as a traditional espresso shot for an intense, bold flavor.
  • Or, add hot water for a long black to experience a balanced and flavorful brew.

By following this method, you’ll unlock the full potential of your coffee, delivering a consistent and exceptional espresso experience with every shot.

Moka Pot Brewing Guide

The Moka Pot offers a bold, rich, and espresso-like brew that highlights the deep, intense flavors of your coffee. This method is perfect for those who enjoy a strong, full-bodied cup, bringing out chocolatey, nutty, and smooth flavor notes with every brew.

Brewing Instructions

  • Coffee Dose: 20g of finely ground coffee (slightly coarser than espresso grind).
  • Water: Fill the bottom chamber of the Moka Pot up to just below the safety valve.

Brewing Method

Grind the Coffee:

  • Use a fine grind size, slightly coarser than espresso, to avoid over-extraction.

Prepare the Moka Pot:

  • Fill the bottom chamber with water, ensuring it does not go above the safety valve.
  • Insert the filter basket into the chamber.

Add Coffee:

  • Add 20g of ground coffee to the filter basket.
  • Level the surface gently but do not tamp the coffee down.

Assemble the Moka Pot:

  • Screw the top and bottom chambers together securely to ensure proper pressure during brewing.

Heat:

  • Place the Moka Pot on medium heat. Avoid high heat to ensure even brewing.
  • As the water heats, it creates pressure that forces the water through the coffee grounds into the top chamber.

Watch for the Brew:

  • When you see coffee flowing into the top chamber and hear a hissing sound, the brewing process is nearly complete.

Remove from Heat:

  • As soon as you hear a bubbling sound, remove the Moka Pot from the heat to prevent burning the coffee.

Serve:

  • Pour the freshly brewed coffee into your cup and enjoy the bold, full-bodied flavor of a perfectly brewed Moka Pot coffee.

By following these steps, you’ll consistently achieve a rich, flavorful brew that showcases the unique qualities of your coffee. Let me know if you'd like further refinements! 🚀

Coffee of the year!

I’ve tried a dozen different coffees this year and I think this is my favourite. Big fan of the natural fermentation and this doesn’t disappoint. This a great single origin and won’t break the bank. I haven’t met someone who hasn’t enjoyed this when I’ve had them over.
