Read about Grind Types

We have recently adjusted our grind options. With that in mind, we wanted to offer this primer so that you can choose the best grind-style for your preferred brewing method.

Whole Bean-- While we are happy to grind your beans, your coffee will stay fresher longer if you grind it as you go. There are many great home grinder options out there and many are surprisingly inexpensive.

Drip-- This is a medium grind that is the most versatile. Brewing methods using drip include home coffee drip machines, pour-overs (like Hario), Chemex, and AeroPress.

Espresso-- This grind is generally used for espresso makers. This includes home machines and stove-tip espresso pots. The grind is the most fine and is optimized to work with a high pressure extraction system.

Coarse-- Coarse is for percolators, french press, cold brewing, and sometimes AeroPress. Coarse is the biggest/loosest grind and enables water to move more freely steeping coffee for extraction.

All of the above, while generally true in the industry, also should be adjusted for preference. Feel free to experiment and please contact us if you have questions and we will be happy to work with you.

Product Overview

Café Orgánico Marcala (COMSA) was founded in December of 2001 with a vision of creating new and alternative development opportunities for small-scale coffee farmers in the region. The organization originally brought together 69 small-scale farmers of Lenca origin who were interested in selling their coffee collectively under the umbrella of a rural credit union. Today they are one of the largest exporters of coffee in Honduras and are a leading voice in Latin America for sustainable farming practices hosting farmers from all over the world holding workshops to teach their revolutionary growing techniques.

    Terrific blend, dark, and strong

    Posted by James Jones on Aug 29th 2017

    I got the espresso grind and used it in my espresso maker and also a percolator. Both had a great flavor. In our espresso it had a nice foam. I like the stronger coffee's with a little half-and-half, and that made it all the more heavenly with this blend. I reordered it.

    The Best Coffee I have had in 40 years.

    Posted by Solange (Soledad) on Jul 25th 2016

    I have been fortunate to work , live in and travel to Central America for the past 40 years and this is the best coffee to date. It is delicious and takes me back to when I lived in a small village in Honduras on the border with El Salvador and had freshly roasted coffee from the campesinos there. Gracias
