Impact Roasters is refining its organic practices by no longer pursuing official organic certification for its Ethiopian coffee. The decision stems from the increasing bureaucracy around certification, which detracted from focusing on sustainability and responsible sourcing. Despite the lack of formal certification, their coffee remains organic in practice, as farmers still use traditional methods without harmful chemicals. Impact Roasters continues to work directly with Ethiopian farmers, ensuring high quality, ethical coffee without compromise.

A perfect cup of coffee starts with the right grind size, which influences the extraction rate and flavor profile. Using the wrong grind size can lead to under-extraction, resulting in a weak and sour taste, or over-extraction, causing bitterness. Understanding the relationship between grind size and brewing method is essential. Coarse grinds work best for French press, medium-coarse for pour-over, medium for filter coffee, and fine grinds for espresso. However, adjustments may be needed based on equipment and bean type, particularly when brewing with Ethiopian beans. Experimenting will help you find the ideal balance for a flavorful cup.
