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.

Rich, smoky, dark, bold blend of smooth caramel-chocolaty Indonesian and sweet, fruity Ethiopian beans presented in a French Roast. If you need to burn the Midnight Oil, this coffee has your back!

Available in a variety of grind options.

Midnight oil

We love this product, drink it daily! Kris

Great Coffee

This is a smooth delicious cup of coffee. JG

Simply the best dark roast on the planet. Seriously.

Look no further- if you're a dark roast lover, you've found Nirvana with Sweetwater's Midnight Oil. This is the perfect blend to serve hot or iced. Distinct flavor profile that's second to none and a creamy mouth feel combine to make this blend that will start the day right and propel you through your morning with a smile on your face Joseph

Midnight Oil

Without a doubt, the best coffee ever. I have bought this as a gift many times over the years, and no recipient has ever been disappointed. When I buy this as a gift, I can't resist buying a package for myself. It is my personal all-time favorite of all the roasts. If you have never indulged, and you like a dark roast, I urge you to give this a try. You'll be glad you did. Laura D McDonald
