FAQ
Frequently asked questions.
How long does filter coffee powder last?
It stays fresh for 3-6 months if stored in an airtight container in a cool, dry place.
Can I freeze coffee powder?
Yes, freezing in an airtight bag can preserve the oils and aroma for up to a year.
What is the role of chicory in this powder?
Chicory adds thickness (body), a slightly woody flavor, and a darker color to the decoction.
How do I identify high-quality coffee powder?
Look for a strong, fresh aroma and a dark, uniform roast. The ratio of coffee to chicory (usually 80:20 or 70:30) should be clearly labeled.
What can I use as a substitute?
Espresso ground coffee is the closest substitute, though it lacks the chicory flavor of traditional Indian blends.
How do I clean a traditional coffee filter?
Boil the filter parts in water with a little dish soap or vinegar once a month to remove oil buildup.
Is filter coffee powder the same as instant coffee?
No, filter coffee powder is ground roasted beans that must be brewed and filtered; it does not dissolve in water.
What is the best ratio for brewing?
Use 2-3 tablespoons of powder for every cup of water to get a strong decoction.
Does it contain gluten?
Pure coffee and chicory are naturally gluten-free.
Is it suitable for a keto diet?
Yes, the brewed decoction is very low in calories and carbs, making it keto-friendly.
