6:5:4 Ratio
To begin, fill a pot (takure) with 6 cups of water, 5 heaping tablespoons of Kapeng Barako ground coffee (galpong), and 4 heaping tablespoons of brown sugar (if desired). Bring them to a boil, allowing the flavors to meld together. Gently stir the mixture until it reaches a rolling boil, infusing the brew with warmth and character.
Infusing Love and Care
As the aroma of Kapeng Barako fills the air, let the brew simmer and add another full stir for an extra dose of love. This step ensures that every sip carries the essence of our coffee's heritage and the passion of those who have nurtured it over the years.
The Resting Period
After the simmering, turn off the heat and let the coffee rest for a few minutes. This period allows the flavors to meld and the coffee grounds to settle gracefully at the bottom. It's a moment of anticipation, knowing that something truly special awaits you in every cup.
The Final Touches
With utmost care, gently pour the brewed Kapeng Barako into your favorite mug, allowing its bold and smooth profile to mesmerize your senses. For those seeking a filtered experience, use a fine mesh strainer to ensure a pure and delightful cup of coffee. Every sip is a tribute to the time-honored process and the robust flavors that define Kapeng Barako.
