Coffee Basic

Basics. Foundations. Beginner’s curiosity. These are some of the most important factors to keep in mind when learning about anything in the world, and the same goes for coffee.

Maybe you have never ventured beyond instant coffee and wish to embark on the journey of brewing fresh coffee at home. Or perhaps you are someone who is simply curious to explore the world of coffee. Regardless of your goals, rest assured that you will find easy, accessible, and interesting coffee knowledge here. We hope it keeps your mind as open to learning about coffee as it was on Day 1!
