Specifications

Why it's a good everyday blend

A six-origin blend like Elements is built to smooth out the sharper edges any single origin might bring on its own — the Brazilian and Colombian beans anchor the body, while the Ethiopian and Papua New Guinean components lift the floral aroma that gives Elements its character. It's the kind of blend that performs the same way on a Tuesday morning as it does on a slow Sunday, which is exactly what most households actually want from a daily bag of beans.

Getting the best out of it

Freshness matters more than technique for a blend like this — grind just before brewing where you can, and keep the bag sealed between uses. Whole beans hold their aroma far longer than pre-ground coffee, so even a basic hand grinder will noticeably improve the cup over buying ready-ground. If you're weighing up equipment, pairing Elements with a decent home coffee grinder makes the biggest difference to consistency, and it runs equally well on the home coffee machines we carry, whether that's a compact single-boiler setup or a full dual-boiler machine.

Not sure it's the blend for you? The sample pack is the easiest way to compare Elements against our other blends — Afterdark, Arabian, Sydney Road and By The Bay each sit at a different point on the roast spectrum, so tasting a few side by side is the quickest route to finding your everyday coffee. It's also worth checking our current coffee deals before you order a full bag.
