Drip bag coffee is one of the simplest ways to make a fresh cup at home, in the office or while travelling. You need only a cup, hot water and one individually portioned drip bag—no grinder or coffee machine.
Shop the coffee in this guide: Black Forest Drip Bag Coffee, with dark chocolate, cocoa and nutty notes.
What you need
- One Black Forest drip bag
- A sturdy cup with enough room for the bag to hang above the coffee
- 150–180 ml of water at about 90–93°C
How to brew drip bag coffee
- Tear and hang. Tear along the marked line, open the paper handles and secure the bag centrally on your cup.
- Bloom the coffee. Wet the grounds with about 30 ml of hot water and wait 20 seconds. This helps the water flow more evenly.
- Pour slowly. Add the remaining water in two or three gentle pours, keeping the water level below the top of the bag. Aim for a total brew time of about two minutes.
- Remove and taste. Lift out the bag without squeezing it. Taste before adding milk or sugar.
Adjust your next cup
If the coffee tastes too strong, use a little more water next time. If it tastes thin, use less water or pour more slowly. Avoid leaving the bag immersed like a tea bag; the extraction can become bitter.
Why Black Forest works as a drip bag
Black Forest’s dark chocolate richness and nutty undertones make a full-bodied cup without equipment. The same blend is also available as coffee beans, whole or ground to order and Nespresso-compatible capsules.
