Drip coffee bag brewing in a white mug outdoors

The drip bag needs no grinder, scale, or coffee maker. Just hot water and a few minutes. Perfect for travel, the office, a trip, or for trying different origins without committing to a full bag.

Recipe:

Each bag comes with 10 g of ground coffee. Use 150-160 g of water at 90-96°C. Total brew time: 3-4 minutes.

Open the packet:
Tear along the notch and remove the drip bag. Use it right away — ground coffee loses its aroma quickly once exposed to air.
Hook it onto the cup:
Unfold the two side flaps and hook them onto the rim of a cup or glass.
First pour (bloom):
Pour a small amount of hot water (about 30 g) just to wet the coffee. Wait 20-30 seconds: you'll see it swell slightly.
Final pour:
Pour the remaining water (120-130 g) in gentle circles, in 2-3 rounds.
Let it drip:
Wait for it to finish filtering, about 3-4 minutes total.
Remove and serve:
Take out the bag and toss it — it's compostable. Drink it as is, with milk, or over ice.

Notes:

The first pour (bloom) makes the coffee taste cleaner and less flat.
Water that's too hot (above 96°C) can scorch the coffee and cause bitterness.
It holds up well in a bag or backpack — no need to refrigerate, and it won't spoil.
Less water (120 g) makes it stronger; more (180 g) makes it smoother.

Adjust the water amount and drip time to suit the origin and your taste.
