Quick Guide to Brewing Chicory Coffee

Brewing chicory coffee is simple — it's just like regular coffee.

For espresso, use 20-22g in a dual wall double portafilter (it's important you use the dual wall basket) for a rich, concentrated shot, with a delicious crema. 

If you prefer a French press or V60 pour-over, 18-20g of chicory coffee will give you a smooth, balanced cup.

Chicory coffee is versatile. Drink it black to fully appreciate its deep, fruity flavour, or add your favourite milk for a creamier experience. Its natural richness means it blends beautifully with plant-based alternatives as well, making it easy to customise to your taste.

Whether you’re pulling an espresso or making a pour-over, these simple measurements and methods help you get the most out of every cup of chicory coffee.
