the ethiopia gerba dogo sodu is a washed single-origin coffee from the guji region of ethiopia, roasted by metric. washed processing means the coffee cherry is removed before drying, which tends to produce a cleaner, more defined cup. expect jasmine and floral characteristics that are typical of well-processed ethiopian lots. to get the most from those delicate aromatics, brew with a method that highlights clarity, such as a pour over or filter, using water just off the boil and a medium-fine grind. avoid over-extraction, which can mute the lighter floral qualities.

How is Ethiopia Gerba Dogo Sodu grown and processed?

a filter or pour over method suits this coffee well, as it preserves the clean, floral qualities that washed processing produces. keep your grind medium-fine and avoid long brew times that could flatten the jasmine character.

about metric

chicago has a deep specialty coffee culture, and a lot of it runs through the west side, where fulton market has pulled serious roasters and curious drinkers alike into its orbit. metric, at 2021 w fulton st, sits right in that current. it's an independent roastery with a genuine following, the kind of place where regulars don't just drift in and out, they come back with intent. you're not picking this spot because it's convenient; you're picking it because the quality holds up, and people who care about that sort of thing have noticed. west fulton is still a working stretch of the city, which gives the whole block a less performative feel than some of the shinier corridors nearby. worth planning your morning around a filter coffee here.
