Ethiopia Guji Hambela is a natural-processed coffee from the Hambela Wamena Washing Station in the Guji Highlands. Grown by smallholders cultivating native heirloom varieties at high elevation, this light-medium roast offers a classic Guji profile: apricot jam, gentle notes of nutmeg, and a juicy, lingering body.

Coffee cherry is delivered to the station by roughly 3,900 producers and dried on raised beds, creating clean natural lots with balanced fruit and sweetness. This coffee stands out for its clarity, structure, and the depth contributed by Guji’s red volcanic soil.

A fruit-forward, well-integrated natural ideal for filter brewing, with enough sweetness and body to perform as an expressive espresso.

Brew Guide

Our head roasters have always vouched to brew what tastes good to you. We use these guides as a starting point and a general process through each method to brew the best coffee.

Espresso Machine

  1. Grind coffee very fine. It should be similar to confectioners sugar.
  2. Weigh your dose. 19 grams is a good starting point.
  3. Distribute the ground coffee as evenly as possible. There are tools for this or you can do it by hand.
  4. Tamp the coffee, making sure the bed of grounds is as level as possible.
  5. Purge your group head by running a small amount of water into the drip tray.
  6. Insert the portafilter and engage the brew right away.
  7. The shot should take several seconds to start flowing and the total time should be around 30 seconds.
  8. If you are making a milk drink you can steam the milk while your shot is pouring.

A few espresso fundamentals:

  • Always brew with a clean, hot, dry portafilter.
  • Use your hand to swipe away any loose grounds on the rim or tabs of the portafilter before inserting to brew.
  • If the shot is running too slow you need to coarsen the grind. If the shot is running too fast fine the grind.
  • Make grind adjustments in small increments.
  • Always pull a couple of shots after an adjustment before deciding whether or not to readjust.
  • Always purge off a bit of steam before and after you steam milk to clean the wand out. Never soak the steam wand or leave it submerged in milk.
