Brewing Tips
Not Coffee is formulated from several different ingredients that are separately ground, roasted and then blended. Not Coffee is not coffee, so unlike coffee beans which are ground to a specific size for different types of brewing methods, Not Coffee is a composite grind that works in all types of coffee machines and coffee makers.
Not Coffee
Quantity
We recommend that you adjust Not Coffee quantities to your own preference. Just like coffee, some people prefer it strong while others prefer it weak. Experiment by making several cups of Not Coffee at different strengths to find the quantity that is perfect for you. You’ll notice that Not Coffee is darker than coffee when you add milk to it, so if you normally gauge the taste and strength of your coffee based on how dark it is, your Not Coffee will likely be darker for the same strength of coffee you enjoy.
Not Coffee
What to Add
Drink Not Coffee the way you enjoy coffee. You may like it instant or brewed, black or with milk, non-dairy milk, creamer or half and half, sugar or no sugar. It’s a good idea to taste Not Coffee first before adding sweetener. This is because Not Coffee’s special blend of premium roasted and ground ingredients replicate a rich, bold coffee flavour profile, without the acidity or bitterness of coffee. So a lot of people find that they do not need to add sweetener to their Not Coffee.
Not Coffee
Original or Now?
Basically, Not Coffee Original works exactly like ground coffee beans and can be used in all the coffee makers and machines you would normally use ground coffee in. Not Coffee Now works exactly like instant coffee powder, so you don’t need a coffee machine to make it, all you need is boiled water and your favourite milk. They both taste, act and look like coffee, it’s just a matter of preference.
