A planning figure, not a laboratory analysis. It is here so a recipe can be reasoned about, not so it can be declared on a menu.
Shelf life: Sealed bag: months per the roast/expiry date. Flavour peaks about 1–4 weeks off roast; once opened, best within about 2 weeks.
Storage: Airtight, cool and dark — never the fridge; load the hopper for the shift only and grind fresh per shot.
- The base of every espresso drink — latte, cappuccino, flat white, Spanish latte
- Dial in with the grinder-calibration SOP after every new bag
- A blend built for body and crema carries milk drinks best
Grind fresh per shot; dial in against the house espresso recipe and re-check after every new bag or roast-date change — grind drifts as beans age.
A double shot (36 ml) carries roughly 120–160 mg caffeine — a big share of the ~400 mg/day commonly cited for healthy adults, and of the much lower ~200 mg often cited in pregnancy.
