How do you make your coffee at home? What equipment do you use? What's the trick?

These are some of the most common questions I get asked by parents at the playground or by a curious friend, aka the everyday man/woman on the street. 

I use a Lelit Elizabeth dual-boiler home espresso machine and a Mythos One grinder; it is a bit of a hybrid home/commercial setup, so it's not what I'm recommending for most specialty coffee enthusiasts. 

However, this isn't a blog post about equipment, but rather some of the common mistakes people new-ish to coffee make.

Here's some news that'll brighten your morning: we've just increased the volume of every Clifftop single-origin coffee bag from 225g to 250g—and we're keeping the price exactly the same. For Lisbon's growing specialty coffee community, it's a small change with a big impact on your daily ritual.

Clifftop Coffee: Why try us? 

Our location in the Western Algarve and the year we were founded (2021) really shaped our values. The coffee scene was pretty undeveloped, and I wanted to provide people with a quality product that was accessible and to be helpful and open with our customers. We genuinely love all the coffees we sell; we look for diversity in our menu and offer competitive prices on our kg bags. 

Finding a Specialty Coffee Roaster in Portugal — What to Look For, and Why It Matters

If you're running a café, restaurant, or hotel in Portugal and you're thinking about upgrading your coffee supplier, this one's for you.

The specialty coffee scene in Portugal has grown fast. Customers are more informed, expectations are higher, and the days of serving whatever comes in a generic sack are fading. If you're serious about what goes in the cup, the roaster you choose matters.

Temos vindo a construir silenciosamente algo de que nos orgulhamos muito e parece ser o momento certo para o partilhar.

Eis o que tem acontecido.
