Source of error 1: My coffee has too little aroma

  • Causes:

    The coffee was ground too long ago (remember, flavors are fleeting!)

    The roast is too old. We recommend using whole beans within 4 months if you store the beans sealed. After
    Once opened, you should use up bean coffee within 4 – 8 weeks and ground coffee within 4 weeks

    Incorrect storage of the coffee. Possible sources of error: packaging
    not properly closed, beans transferred to translucent containers, stored in the refrigerator or in a place that is too warm

    The coffee dosage is too low

    Your coffee is ground too coarsely and therefore the extraction time is too short

    The water used is too cold – we recommend a water temperature of 94° – 96°C

    The water hardness is too high (over 6°dH)

  • Solutions

    Grind your coffee as freshly as possible before use

    Don’t let your coffee get too old

    Make sure to close your coffee well and store it in a cool place

    Pay attention to the exact dosage of your coffee

    Adjust the grind setting

    Note the temperature of the water used

    Determine the hardness of your water
