local hawaiian COFFEE

TRY OUR SIGNATURE hawaiian coffee flavor the SURFERS BLEND, CRAFTED WITH ALOHA BY OUR TEAM

  • WE SOURCE OUR COFFEE LOCALLY HERE IN THE ISLANDS FROM A REGION ON THE BIG ISLAND OF HAWAI'I.

    The KaʻU Coffee Region is nestled on the southern side of the Island of Hawaiʻi. KaʻU is an up-and-coming coffee paradise that deserves your attention. Although Ka'U shares some similarities with its famous neighbor, Kona, it boasts its own unique characteristics. The region's volcanic soil, ample rainfall, and ideal elevation at approximately 2,000 feet create the perfect conditions for growing exceptional coffee beans. The volcanic ash and mineral-rich soil lend a distinctive flavor profile to the coffee, resulting in a smooth and well-balanced cup.

    The local farmers in Ka'U are deeply committed to their craft, employing traditional farming techniques combined with modern innovations to ensure the highest quality standards. Take note of this great cup and share the aloha with friends and family.

    • Single Origin Coffee •

  • Making cold brew coffee is a simple process that results in a smooth, less acidic coffee concentrate. Here's a basic recipe for making cold brew at home:

    Ingredients:

    Coarsely ground coffee beans (medium to dark roast is often preferred)

    Cold or room temperature water

    Equipment:

    A large jar or pitcher

    Coffee filter or fine mesh strainer

    Cheesecloth (optional)

    A stirring utensil

    Measure Coffee:

    Use a coarsely ground coffee. A common ratio is 1 cup of coarsely ground coffee to 4 cups of cold or room temperature water. You can adjust the ratio based on your taste preferences.

    Combine Coffee and Water:

    In a large jar or pitcher, combine the coarsely ground coffee with the cold or room temperature water. Stir well to ensure that all the coffee grounds are fully saturated.

    Steep:

    Cover the jar or pitcher and let it steep in the refrigerator for at least 12 to 24 hours. The extended steeping time allows the coffee to extract flavors slowly, resulting in a smoother and less acidic brew.

    Strain:

    After the steeping period, strain the cold brew to remove the coffee grounds. You can use a fine mesh strainer, a coffee filter, or cheesecloth for this step. If you use a strainer, you may want to strain the coffee a second time to remove finer particles.

    Serve:

    Dilute the concentrated cold brew with water, milk, or a milk alternative to your desired strength. You can also add ice cubes for an iced cold brew. Cold brew is often served over ice and can be sweetened or flavored according to your preferences.

    Store:

    Cold brew can be stored in the refrigerator for several days. It's a convenient way to have a ready-to-drink coffee concentrate whenever you want it.

    Remember that cold brew is highly concentrated, so you may need to dilute it with water or milk before drinking. Adjust the strength and additives to suit your taste. Experiment with the coffee-to-water ratio and steeping time to find the perfect combination for your ideal cold brew.

SEAMOSS

RAW WILD ORGANIC IRISH SEAMOSS FROM JAMAICA delivered right to your door step

  • Sea moss, also known as Irish moss or Chondrus crispus, is a type of red algae that grows along the rocky Atlantic coasts of North America and Europe. It has been consumed for centuries, particularly in Irish and Jamaican cultures, both as a food and for its potential health benefits.

    Sea moss is rich in nutrients, including vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It contains essential nutrients such as iodine, iron, calcium, magnesium, and vitamins A and C. Additionally, sea moss is a source of carrageenan, a type of gelatinous substance with thickening and stabilizing properties often used in the food industry.

    Before incorporating sea moss into your diet or wellness routine, it's advisable to consult with a healthcare professional, especially if you have underlying health conditions or are taking medications.

  • 2-3 weeks max

  • Seamoss can be used in various ways, such as adding it to smoothies, coffees, blended items, soups, or using it to make a gel that can be added to any blended beverage or applied to the skin.

    Seamoss supports thyroid function, boosting the immune system, and promoting digestive health.

  • Making sea moss gel is a straight forward process, and it's a popular way to incorporate sea moss into various recipes. Here's a basic recipe to make sea moss gel:

    Ingredients:

    Dried sea moss (about 1 cup)

    Water for soaking

    Filtered Water

    Instructions:

    Rinse the Sea Moss:

    Start by thoroughly rinsing the dried sea moss in cold water to remove any debris or sand.

    Soak the Sea Moss:

    Place the rinsed sea moss in a bowl and cover it with water. Allow it to soak for at least 12 hours or more. The sea moss will absorb water and increase in volume.

    Check for Cleanliness:

    After soaking, inspect the sea moss to ensure it's clean and free from any impurities.

    Blend:

    Add soaked and swelled up seamoss to blender with 2 cups of filtered water, you may need to adjust water ratio for desired consistency or thickness of gel. Less water = thicker gel.

    Store in a Jar:

    Once blended, transfer the sea moss gel to a clean glass jar or container. Seal the jar and store it in the refrigerator. The gel will thicken as it cools.

    Use as Needed:

    The sea moss gel can be added to smoothies, beverages, soups, or used in various recipes as a thickening agent. Some people also apply sea moss gel topically on the skin.

    Keep in mind that sea moss gel can have a slightly oceanic smell, which is normal. If the odor is too strong, you can add a splash of lemon juice or lime juice during blending to help neutralize it.

    Additionally, the consistency of the gel can be adjusted by varying the water content during blending. Experiment with the amount of water to achieve the thickness that works best for your preferences.
