We taste red licorice, strawberry lemonade, and Hawaiian Punch
This month, we’re unveiling a coffee that’s more than just a seasonal blend. In ʻōlelo Hawaiʻi, Makepono means “to be beneficial or make things right,” and Mele translates to “song” or “chant.” Together, this blend is a harmonious celebration of all that we stand for—community, culture, and the perfect cup of coffee. If you didn’t know, Makepono is also the street name of our support center, a place where we ensure everything we do is crafted with care and purpose. Just like this blend, it’s all about balance, warmth, and the joy of sharing.

How should I brew my coffee?
The best coffee is coffee that you love. That said, there are basics for making the most of every brew, such as:
• Brewing Water Temperature: 195-205 F
• Clean, filtered Water
• Proper steep time for the grind setting: Coarse Grind = long brew time, Fine Grind = short brew time
• Proper Coffee to Water Ratio: 1 gram of coffee for every 16 ml (or g) of water
• A consistent grind particle size: Use a burr grinder if possible
• Coffee that is not too far off-roast
We love brewing the Kalita and French Press in particular. Get our recipes here!
