Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A barrel-aged coffee is a unique and flavorful type of coffee where green coffee beans are aged in barrels that previously housed other spirits, such as whiskey, rum, or wine.
At Bean Bottle Co, we meticulously source high-quality, single-origin green coffee beans and age them in specially selected barrels to infuse the beans with the rich, complex flavors of the barrel's former contents.
This process typically takes several weeks to months, allowing the beans to absorb the nuanced notes and aromas from the wooden staves. Once aged to perfection, the beans are carefully roasted to develop a well-balanced cup that boasts hints of the spirit alongside the natural coffee flavors.

The aging process of coffee beans does not significantly affect their caffeine content. At Bean Bottle Co, we understand that certain aspects of coffee, such as flavor and aroma, can evolve and develop over time, especially with aged beans.
However, the caffeine content remains relatively stable throughout the aging process. While aged coffee beans can offer a unique and rich taste profile, you can be assured that the stimulating effects of caffeine will be consistent with those of freshly roasted beans. This makes aged coffee a fantastic choice for those seeking distinctive flavors without compromising on their caffeine intake.
Brewing coffee from Bean Bottle Co involves following a few essential steps to ensure you capture the full flavor and quality.
1. Start by measuring your coffee and water ratio carefully; we recommend using 1 to 2 tablespoons of coffee per 6 ounces of water
2. Use clean, filtered water heated to just below boiling, around 200°F (93°C)
- Choose any manual brewing method that suits your taste—whether it's a French press for a robust, full-bodied experience, a drip coffee maker for convenience, or a pour-over for precise control over brewing time and temperature
3. Finally, let your coffee steep or brew for the appropriate amount of time, usually 4 minutes for a French press and around 5 minutes for a drip coffee maker. Each brewing method can enhance different flavor profiles, so feel free to experiment to find your perfect cup
