  2. Hang the bagTear the sachet open along the dotted line, open the filter pouch, extend the arms and hook it over the rim of your cup.
  3. Pour in stagesSlowly pour 200 to 250ml of water over the grounds, depending on how strong you like it. Pour a little at a time and let it drip through between pours, so all the coffee gets wet.

  • Want it stronger? Use less water, or let the bag steep for longer.

Coffee goes stale the longer it sits. Fresh is always better, and a drip bag is the easiest way to get it on the go. The grounds in each bag are nitro flushed to stay fresh for longer.
