How to Use
For a drip machine, use one heaped tablespoon (about 7 g) per 4.2 fl oz (125 mL) of water and adjust to taste. For French press, use the same dose, steep four minutes, then press slowly. For a moka pot, fill the basket loosely without tamping and remove it from the heat as soon as coffee starts to flow. Water at 194 to 205 F (90 to 96 C) works best. Store the bag sealed in a cool, dry cupboard away from light and strong odors, and move the grounds to an airtight container after opening.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does Jacobs Krönung Signature Ground Coffee contain allergens?
The listed ingredient is 100 percent Arabica roasted ground coffee, with no added flavors, milk, or sugar declared on the bag, and it is naturally free of gluten. As with any imported grocery item, read the printed label for the current ingredient statement and facility notice, since these can change between production runs and are the most reliable source.
How should I brew and store Jacobs Krönung Signature?
Use about one heaped tablespoon per cup in a drip machine, French press, or moka pot, with water just off the boil. The grind is too coarse for espresso machines. Keep the unopened bag in a cool, dry cupboard, and after opening transfer the coffee to an airtight container for the best aroma.
What does Jacobs Krönung Signature taste like compared with a dark roast?
Krönung Signature is a medium roast rated 3 out of 5 for intensity on Jacobs' own scale, so it is aromatic and full-bodied but smooth, with mild acidity and no bitter, smoky edge. A darker Jacobs roast would taste stronger and more roasted overall. Signature is meant as an everyday filter coffee, served with or without milk.
Is Jacobs Krönung Signature imported from Germany?
Yes. This is the German Krönung Signature in the 17.6 oz (500 g) vacuum pack, produced in Germany by Jacobs Douwe Egberts and carrying German labeling, not a repackaged US version. Real Prime Deals imports it directly so US and Canadian customers receive the same bag sold in German supermarkets.
