What is the difference between bean and cafetiere grind?
They are the same coffee. Whole bean stays fresher for longer but needs a grinder; the cafetiere grind is ready to use, ground coarse for a cafetiere or filter.
Can I use the cafetiere grind in an espresso machine?
Not well - it is too coarse and the water will pass through too quickly. Buy Revelation Espresso, which is stocked as whole bean and as a finer espresso grind.
Which Union coffee should I start with?
House Blend if you want a reliable everyday coffee, Revelation if you pull espresso, and Yirgacheffe or Maraba if you want to taste a single origin properly.
Are any of them organic?
Yes - Natural Spirit and the Yirgacheffe are certified organic. The certification is shown on the pack and on each product page.
How should I store it once opened?
Airtight, cool and out of the light, and use it within a few weeks. The fridge and freezer are best avoided, as coffee readily picks up moisture and other smells.
