How to Use
Grind illy Classico Whole Beans fresh before every brew — fine for espresso (7–9g per shot, tamp firmly, 9 bar, 25–30 sec extraction), medium-fine for pour over or drip at 90–96°C (194–205°F) using 60g per liter, medium-fine for moka pot (fill basket level, do not tamp, brew over medium heat, remove when coffee begins to flow), and coarse for French press (60g per liter, steep 4 minutes, press slowly). Both Classico and Decaffeinated share identical brewing parameters — only the caffeine content differs. Caramel and jasmine notes are especially pronounced in filter and pour over brewing. Store tin resealed, in a cool, dry place away from sunlight.
