Our Brewing Methods
Nuova Simonelli - The centerpiece of Scenic Brew is the Aurelia espresso machine by Nuova Simonelli. Selected as the World Barista Championship’s official espresso machine, the Aurelia consistently produces perfect espressos. The Aurelia has been engineered using mathematical models, developed specially to optimize performance at every level. Each part of the machine has been balanced for optimum results, guaranteeing maximum temperature stability during every stage of operation. Other critical elements such as the grind, tamping, and water purity are also controlled to provide the best possible espresso beverages.
Pour Over - The perfect cup of coffee, ground and brewed fresh for you alone. This single-cup brewing is a time honored tradition and is still the preferred method by many for the extraction control it offers. This method involves heating the water separately, then pouring the water over the freshly ground coffee at the perfect speed to suit your taste.
French Press - Also known as “steep brewing”, this method tends to produce a more flavorful coffee due to the “press”. A glass cylinder is first filled with the correct amount of freshly ground beans then filled with hot water. The coffee then steeps for 3 to 4 minutes depending on your taste. Lastly the plunger in the cylinder is depressed forcing all the grounds to the bottom of the press, leaving the brewed coffee filtered and ready to pour.
Brewed Traditional - drip brewed coffee can yield an amazing cup when done right. A surprising amount of attention is given to Scenic Brew’s drip coffee to ensure proper coffee extraction. We monitor the proper grind coarseness and volume, water temperature, pre-infusion, and pulse brewing controls to ensure proper extraction, total dissolved solids, and acidity.
