Big Boy Dark Roast

Orea Big Boy Orea by Orea

Orea's dark-roast Big Boy method applies lower-temperature brewing to a large flat-bottom batch. It is built to extract developed coffee evenly while restraining roast bitterness, favoring rounded sweetness, substantial body, and a softer finish.

Notes

Brew at 88°C and begin with a coarser grind to limit harsh extraction from soluble dark-roast coffee. Keep agitation moderate across the broad bed; cool further or grind coarser if smoky bitterness remains.
