About La Chumeca...

La Chumeca of San Pablo de León Cortés, Tarrazú was established back in 2014 and is managed by Martín Ureña. Chumeca is family run, and with only two employees hired year round, they’re a tight-knit team. Beneficio La Chumeca covers four farms, Chumeca (1.5ha), Fila (1.5ha), La Montanita (1.5ha), and Trinidad (6ha). On all of these only the most experienced pickers that can differentiate between varieties are hired, and regenerative agriculture is practiced. Soil quality and nutrient balance is carefully monitored, with fertilisation only when required, instead of blanket fertilisation.

Recipes

Espresso: 20g in, 80g out, 18-22s with 94 degree water. Use a paper filter underneath the coffee bed where possible.

Filter: We like to use V60 for this coffee:

Dose: 15g, Water: 240g, 96 degrees - 4 Pours
Bloom - 45g wait 45s
Fast, close circle pours to 120g, wait 10s
Fast, close circle pours to 180g, wait 10s
Fast, close circle pours to 240g, then swirl gently.

The best recipe for any coffee depends on the equipment, water and preparation being used to make it. We encourage you to experiment and fine tune our suggestions to your preferences.
