Fazenda do Sertão is managed by Nazareth Dias Pereira’s son, Francisco Isidro Dias Pereira (Chico), and the family. Nazareth died in January 2021 and is remembered as the matriarch of the coffee family in this area of Brazil. She was 96 when she died and leaves an important legacy in the farming industry in the region. Sertão was established in 1891 and now has a total of 750 hectares, of which 202 are planted with coffee. The remaining hectares consist of retained native forest, as well as some arable land, and a small amount of pasture for cattle. Sertão has always been an impeccably organised and well-run farm. Over the last few years Chico has been renovating the coffee areas with Red Bourbon seedlings, these sit alongside some coffee trees which are now 100 years old. The farm has Red Bourbon, Yellow Bourbon, Catuaí, and Catucaí planted. We visit Sertão almost every year when we go to Carmo Coffees to taste through the crop samples and make our selections for the year. Carmo Coffee was started by two of Nazareth’s grandchildren, Luiz Paulo Dias Pereira Filho and Jacques Carneiro, to differentiate and export coffee from the family farms. The company now has four sites including their impressive warehouse and dry mill where the coffee is prepared for export. Please see carmocoffees.com.br for more information about Carmo Coffees and photos of the coffee processing.

Grind Guide

Cafetière

A coarse grind also suitable for cold brew. We use the word cafetière, but this can also be referred to as a French press, plunger or press pot.

Aeropress slow

Suitable for making a long, filter style coffee, often brewed for a few minutes. Similar to our paper filter setting.

Filter

This is suitable for our paper filters and ceramic or plastic cones, along with other brands such as V60, Clever dripper and Melitta.

Stovetop

This is an espresso style grind suitable for use in hob top espresso pots such as a Bialetti or Grunwerg. Sometimes referred to as a moka pot.

Aeropress fast

This is also an espresso style grind ideal for brewing a short, concentrated, espresso style coffee in an Aeropress.

Domestic espresso

A fine grind for using in your home espresso machine. Grind requirements will vary depending on brand and model, but this setting aims to work for the majority of home setups.

Whole beans

For use in your home grinder!

If you use a different method such as a syphon or Chemex, require a custom grind or need some advice, please get in touch and we will be happy to help.
