When brewing our Decaf Filter, we recommend a similar grind size as when brewing your preferred filter coffee method. We recommend a ratio of 70g of coffee / 1L of water, for example 35g of coffee for 500g of water. Adjust to personal preference.
If brewing using a percolation method like V60, we recommend agitating during the bloom phase followed by a low agitation of the bed for the rest of the brew.

ABOUT
Next up for decaf is Red Brick’s mainstay, El Pato from Cajamarca, Peru. Chosen for its rich texture, once decaffeinated, all the dark chocolatey notes brighten, turning into a creamy caramelly delight, making this the perfect all-day brew.
Tabaconas is located in the northernmost part of Peru, near the border with Ecuador. As part of the San Ignacio province in Cajamarca, it is characterised by steep terrain, mist-covered forests, and a long-standing coffee culture. The elevation ranges from 1,100 to over 2,400 meters above sea level. Its position within the trans-Andean corridor creates distinct microclimates and a diverse ecosystem, making it ideal for cultivating high-quality Arabica coffee with complementary flavours.
Working closely with Origin Coffee Lab on El Pato, this tailor-made blend represents the work of 25 small-scale producers in the region. The expansion of the Marshell hybrid in the area over the past few years has imbued the regional profile with a dark chocolate intensity that translates beautifully to espresso and, as mentioned above, provides the textural base when decaffeinated.
