Carmo de Minas

Santa Lúcia is one of the family farms in the Carmo Coffees group. It is owned and managed by Helcio Carneiro Pinto. Helcio grows predominantly Yellow Bourbon, with some smaller amounts of Red Bourbon, Yellow Catuaí, Yellow Catucaí, Acaia and Mundo Novo. Originally, each of the family farms processed their own coffee, but over the last few years this has moved to Fazenda IP, the farm of Helcio’s brother-in-law. Amalgamation of processing into one area has helped with efficiencies of scale and enabled the group to invest in larger machinery. The harvest from each farm is kept separate from delivery to final drying and full traceability is maintained throughout the process. While continuing to grow coffee, Helcio also has cereal and beans. The cereal and beans are processed at Santa Lúcia along with arable crops from the other family farms. The splitting and centralisation of both types of crops has allowed for greater specialisation of the teams. Crop diversification, and the means to process the crops, is a common theme among coffee growers. The Carmo farms have been able to take this to the next level, sharing resources and space, and using their combined scale to achieve more together than the farms could separately.

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.
