Yes we do. Customs have strict importing regulations which are outside our control and have caused problems when trying to ship our coffee to customers in countries including Qatar, Mexico, some countries in Africa and the Middle East. For the full list of countries we cannot currently ship to, please contact us.

If you are sending coffee to any European or rest of the world country, you will be charged between £10.00 and £20.00 for delivery at checkout - depending on location and weight.

Typically, fine grind is for espresso machines however, for low pressure machines like SMEG, Dualit and the smaller Sage machines we recommend medium grind. All other brewing equipment like Cafetiere, Moka Pot, Aeropress, V60 are best with medium grind. Please get in touch if you are having issues with the grind.

The grind we offer is a generic espresso grind should work in most domestic espresso machines, but as you can imagine there are just too many out there to cover them all! For the bag that you have still to go through, I would suggest you add less coffee to your dose so the flow of water finds less resistance and your machine complains less, I'd recommend using a scale and weighing 13-15g (normally you would add 17-19g).

If your machine requires a grind of such specific size, I recommend buying a grinder so you can experiment around getting the perfect experience. This way your coffee also tastes better when you ground it the same day you are brewing it.

Typically, the coffee you’ll receive will have been roasted within a week. We recommend the coffee be consumed within 5 weeks (although it can still taste great after this).

We use the CO2 method for decaffeinating the coffee. The green beans (un-roasted) are soaked in highly compressed carbon dioxide for about ten hours, which extracts the caffeine from the coffee. It's a natural and chemical free process which preserves the flavour in the coffee. You can purchase our decaffeinated coffee here. Learn more about the decaffeination process on our blog.

Great Taste is the largest and most trusted food and drink accreditation scheme. We have been entering our products since 2018 where they are put to a panel of over 500 experts. So far, we have won 8 Great Taste awards across our online product range.

Keep your coffee tasting great by storing it at room temperature in an opaque container like our coffee tin and for added protection keep your bag sealed with our coffee clip. Learn more about how to keep your coffee fresh on our blog.

Our innovative capsules are made of natural material derived from 100% biobased cellulose and vegetal oils – in simpler terms this means they are entirely organic and biodegradable. And a perfect cup of coffee is always guaranteed thanks to a barrier to oxygen level.  

The coffee pods are “OK Compost Home” certified and will decompose within 180 days at ambient temperature – quicker than an orange peel! Just pop it in your home garden compost and watch it decompose. If you don’t have access to a home compost, just pop it in your general waste bin – this is still far more environmentally friendly than other coffee pods. 

Our coffee pods are compatible with the original Nespresso® machines. These are not compatible with the Vertuo Nespresso® machines.

We would recommend you give the pods a good shake before inserting them into the machine. And purge water through the machine in between each pod, it helps heat up the machine and get it ready for your pod. If it's not piercing well, try and push down hard after you've put the pod in. The compostable material that we use might have a bit thicker film than the other pods you have tried.

We’ve made it easy for you to differentiate between the flavours using colours. The colours of the pods are a more pastel version of the pod box themselves.  Check out the product pages to see what the colours look like.
