Coffee FAQs

How should I prepare the coffee that came in my subscription?

When signing up to our coffee subscription service, we’ll ask you how you would like your beans prepared. You can choose to receive them as whole beans so that you can grind them yourself, or ground to suit a particular brewing method, such as for espresso, V60, French Press, and so on. This means that the beans will arrive ready to use, and will just need to be brewed using the equipment you have at home!

How fresh is the coffee that I’ve received? 

Every single subscription box contains the freshest Colombian coffee beans, ground to order. We roast the beans a few days before sending them out to our subscription customers to ensure that they have had time to degas and the optimal flavours and aromas can be experienced.

Will I receive a different coffee with every subscription? 

We rotate the specific single origin coffee bean you receive with each order week based on seasonality and availability. This is also designed to showcase the diversity of Colombian coffee profiles to our subscription customers. 

Can I choose how I want my coffee beans prepared?

Yes. When placing your subscription order with us, you will be asked how you would like your beans prepared. You can choose to have them whole, or ground for French Press, V60, Chemex, cold brew, filter machine, AeroPress, moka pot, or espresso machine.

Can I subscribe to a particular coffee?

Our subscription service works by rotating through a variety of delicious single-origin Colombian coffees, meaning that you will be given a different bean with each order. However, if there is a particular coffee that you’ve tried and would like to receive again from our subscription selection, leave your request in the notes box when ordering and we’ll see what we can do!

Can I choose how many bags of coffee I want to receive?

Our subscriptions come with 1 X 250g bag of coffee as standard. You can order multiple bags by purchasing multiple subscriptions.

How much coffee should I order?

To ensure you never run out and that your coffee is always fresh when you drink it, consider roughly how much coffee you drink at home each week before you buy your coffee beans. If you drink 1-2 cups a day, a 1x 250g per week should probably do fine. If you’re a heavier coffee drinker, or regularly share with others, we'd recommend 2-3x 250g bags per week. 

Am I able to modify my ongoing coffee subscription?

Yes, you are able to modify your ongoing coffee subscription. By logging into your Hermanos account, you can click on ‘manage subscriptions’ to see the modifications that can be made. You can change the quantity of subscriptions, the variant of beans, and when you would like your next order. You can also change account details such as payment method and shipping address, as well as skip your next order or cancel your subscription.

How long will the coffee that I ordered stay fresh for? 

On average, our coffee should stay fresh for up to 6 weeks, so long as it is kept in an airtight container and in a cool, dry place (such as a kitchen cupboard or pantry). 

Can I add on additional products to my subscription order?

We do not offer the option to add on additional products to your subscription order at the moment. 

How many bags of coffee will I receive in my subscription order?

Currently, we offer 1 X 250g bag of coffee per subscription order.
