Coffee Preparation

At Márago Coffee, the focus is not just on great coffee but also on the art of preparation and the variety of drinks available. One unique aspect is that you can choose how your coffee is brewed, allowing you to experience different flavors and textures.

Here are the four most important coffee preparation methods:

• Espresso (Portafilter Machine): The foundation of most café drinks, espresso is made by forcing hot water through finely ground coffee under high pressure. This method produces a strong, concentrated coffee with a rich crema.

• Filter Coffee (Drip Coffee): A classic method where hot water slowly passes through ground coffee in a filter, producing a smooth and clean cup. This technique highlights the natural flavors of the beans and is often preferred for black coffee.

• French Press: Coffee grounds are steeped in hot water for several minutes before being pressed with a plunger. This method creates a full-bodied and aromatic brew with a slightly richer texture due to the natural oils remaining in the coffee.

• AeroPress: A versatile brewing method where coffee is steeped and then forced through a filter using air pressure. It produces a smooth, strong coffee with low acidity and can be adjusted for espresso-style shots or a lighter cup.

You can also add flavors like coconut, caramel, or vanilla to your coffee or cappuccino.

Smoothies, Frappes & Juices

If you're in the mood for something cold, there are more than ten different frappes (a blended cold drink with coffee or milk) to choose from, as well as iced coffee and a selection of specialty teas.

You'll also find smoothies made with water, milk, or yogurt, freshly squeezed fruit juices, and plenty of other refreshing drinks.
