Ways To Make Coffee
Here’s a quick guide to some of our favourite ways to brew so you can get the best from every bag of Deadline Coffee, however you like to drink it.
Espresso
Espresso is a fast, intense brewing method that delivers a small, concentrated shot of coffee with a rich crema on top. Made under high pressure, it’s bold, full-bodied, and forms the base of café favourites like lattes and flat whites. Perfect if you like a strong, quick hit of coffee.
Filter
Filter coffee, also known as drip coffee, is a smooth, easy-to-drink brew that highlights the subtle flavours of the bean. Made by slowly pouring water over ground coffee, it’s lighter and less intense than espresso — ideal for sipping throughout the day or brewing in larger batches to share.
V60
V60 is a pour-over brewing method that gives you full control over the process, producing a clean, bright cup with delicate flavours. Perfect for showcasing single-origin coffees, it’s a hands-on way to brew that rewards patience with clarity and precision in every sip.
Chemex
Chemex is a stylish pour-over brewer that makes smooth, balanced coffee with a clean finish. Using a thicker filter than V60, it removes more oils for a crisp taste and can brew larger batches — great for sharing or enjoying a longer coffee moment.
Cafetière (French Press)
Rich, full-bodied, and easy to brew, the French Press is a classic method that lets the coffee steep before pressing down the filter. This immersion brewing style brings out bold flavours and natural oils, making for a smooth, hearty cup with plenty of depth — perfect for those who like their coffee with a bit of weight and texture.
Aeropress
The AeroPress is a quick and versatile brewer that combines immersion and gentle pressure to create a rich, smooth cup. It’s easy to use, highly portable, and perfect for experimenting — whether you want a strong espresso-style shot or a longer, mellow brew.
Stovetop (Moka Pot)
The Moka Pot, or Stove Top, is a classic way to brew bold, strong coffee on the hob using steam pressure. It produces an espresso-like cup with a rich, robust flavour — perfect for those who like their coffee with a bit of punch, especially in milk-based drinks.
