Its March already and the days are slowly feeling a little less like summer. A lot of our customers have been enjoying the Brazil coffee we have on special for just $7.50/bag - its great value and a great way to get into the world of delicious fresh roasted coffee. Here is what we have been up to at Bay Beans;

All the while, I have been enjoying the aromas and benefits of sampling all of our fresh roasted coffee and getting about to meet our dedicated coffee lovers on deliveries. 


How to Make a delicious flat white or cappuccino

Want to know the secret to a delicious flat white or cappuccino at home? Its 'micro-foam' - shhh, don't tell anyone! Micro-foam is the art of foaming your milk into a rich creamy and thick milk to add to your espresso base. If you have an espresso machine with a steaming wand, this method has produced great results for me in the past and my wife was also able to produce a great flat white in just a couple of practices. Cafes will use a thermometer, but I have a simple low-tech way. This is what we do;



1. fill your milk jug around half way (around 250mls is good). 
2. insert your milk wand into the milk and open the steam
3. bring the milk wand to the surface of the milk till you start hearing a 'whooshing' sound. Don't lift any higher or you risk making large soap like bubbles which is not the aim.
4. once the milk gets to around 35c, plunge the wand down into the milk, to continue heating the milk to 70c and to start splitting the bubbles that have been made, into halves and halves again, producing micro-foam. 
5. when the milk is at 60-70c - shut off the steam wand and add to your espresso base. Hold back the froth if you want a flat white. 

So - without a thermometer, how will you know when you have reached the two key temperatures? Easy! 35c is body temp, and 70c is hot enough that you cant touch your hand on the jug for more than a couple of seconds. Let me know how you go and if you find that it improves your coffee taste


Pack sizes now include 3KG packs

We have added a new pack size to our range. 3kg is now available along with the usual 70g, 250g and 1kg packs. This is great news for office coffee machines and for catering purposes. If you would like to enjoy Bay Beans coffee at your office, dob in your boss and I will try my best to make an attractive deal for your boss to switch to Bay Beans coffee. 



Easter gift pack


Our Christmas gift packs were a great success and proved to be very popular. We have created a new gift pack for Easter and they look fantastic. All gift packs come in gift bags with an added touch just for easter. The product is available in the store as SAMPLE PACK, either 4x70g or 4x250g starting at just $14.90, thats terrific value too. . Here is the online link.




New phone number

We have a new office phone number 02 8208 3477. If you prefer to place your orders by phone, you wont need to dial a mobile number to get a hold of me, but the mobile number is still with me most of the time. 


Coffee Subscriptions

These have been very popular - its an easy way to enjoy the delicious taste of Bay Beans coffee every month, without needing to remember to place an order each month. It has also been used as a fantastic gift. Subscriptions are less than $60.
