Rogue is our flagship espresso. For this blend, we focus year-round on sourcing coffees with a ton of natural sweetness, full body, and delicate (not overwhelming) acidity.  Sourcing carefully with espresso in mind allows us to produce a balanced, user-friendly espresso without needing to roast too dark.  A shot of Rogue should taste like berry jam and melted chocolate with a lasting clean finish.

• For us, a 1:2 ratio works best for Rogue Espresso (that is one part coffee to two parts water).
• Our favorite Rogue ratio is 18g in and 36g out. Another way to explain this is 18g dry grounds and 36g liquid.
• To achieve the 36g out, you will want to “stop” the shot when the scale reads approximately 34g.
• You will also want to time your shots along with weighing them out. We have found that anywhere between 28-32 seconds is ideal for Rogue.

Notes from the team: These brew ratios and recipes are not meant to be prescriptive but rather a helpful guide to get you started. Our goal as a company is to provide a stepping stone to make brewing coffee a little less scary. We are here for you and we know you got this! Play around with ratios, pull a lot of shots, have fun with it, and if you run out of coffee - we will always have another bag ready for you!
