What Coffee Beans to Use for Siphon Brewing Recommended Coffee Beans for Siphon Coffee Makers

The Art of Siphon Coffee

Have you ever been to a coffee shop, ordered a cup of coffee, and watched the barista start manipulating two glass bottles, seemingly conducting an experiment? Did you think it was just an elaborate performance? If so, you've underestimated the experience, because what awaits you is actually a rich, well-rounded cup of siphon coffee.

Choosing the Right Coffee Beans

For siphon brewing, you should select freshly roasted whole coffee beans and store them in airtight containers to avoid direct sunlight. It's best to keep them in a place with stable temperature and humidity. Since various food odors in refrigerators or freezers can easily mix, coffee beans should not be stored in these locations.

Because siphon brewing involves indirect heating and prolonged steeping, we recommend using light or medium roast coffee beans to highlight the delicate layers and fruity sweetness of the coffee.
