Ready to try coffee with a smoky Japanese twist? Charcoal-roasted coffee is a beginner’s dream—easy to brew and packed with wow-factor flavor. Here’s how to bring this unique brew to your kitchen and make every cup a mini adventure!
➡️ Find the Beans: Hunt for charcoal-roasted beans at Asian markets or online—look for Japanese or Southeast Asian brands. A medium grind works best for most methods.
💡 Brew It Right: Try a pour-over to highlight the smoky-sweet notes. Use water just off the boil (about 195°F) and pour slowly for a smooth, rich cup. A French press also rocks for bolder vibes.
⚡ Taste and Tweak: Sip black first to catch the charcoal’s gentle smoke. Want it softer? Add a splash of milk. Pair with a buttery pastry to make the flavors pop.
🔍 Beginner’s Hack: Store beans in an airtight jar to keep that fresh-roasted magic. Don’t stress about perfection—experimenting is half the fun. One brew, and you’ll feel like a coffee artist!
