Coffee Starter Pack

Coffee Starter Pack

Everything you need to start brewing good coffee outdoors. An AeroPress, an enamel mug, and four 100g coffee samples. One bundle that covers the gear and the coffee.

What's in the pack

• Enamel mug: tin enamel mug with the Contact Coffee logo. Won't smash if you drop it on a rock. Light, packs small, doubles as a cooking vessel if you need it to.
• AeroPress Coffee Maker: the brewer the founders use on operations. Plastic, near-unbreakable, brews a clean cup in about a minute. Comes with the AeroPress, stirrer, scoop, and paper filters.
• Four 100g coffee samples: After Hours, Battle Prep, Red On, and Shots Fired. Four different roasts, four different flavour profiles.

The four coffees

• After Hours: roasted nut, dark cocoa and sweet cedar wood. Higher Robusta ratio. Strength 4/5.
• Battle Prep: Brazil and Latin America blend. Liquorice and cocoa. Strength 3/5.
• Red On: single-origin Robusta from the Badra Estate. 1,293mg caffeine per 12fl oz. Strength 5/5. The strongest cup we make.
• Shots Fired: Brazil and Ethiopia Djimma blend. Chocolatey, nutty. Strength 2/5.

How to use it

Drop coffee in the AeroPress, add hot water, stir 10 seconds, press, pour into the mug. Full AeroPress walkthrough here if you're new to it.
