60 Beans Coffee

why it’s 60 beans coffee

No one was more serious about how he took his morning coffee than the classical composer Ludwig van Beethoven. He would count out 60 coffee beans every morning. It was this number, he believed, that would make a perfect cup of coffee. Sixty ground beans is roughly equivalent to 8 grams (enough for a decent espresso), though this wasn’t invented until 1884, according to Open Culture. Beethoven used a glass, balloon-style coffee maker of his own invention, which probably looked similar to a modern siphon brewer. But it must have pulled a great cup of coffee because this ritual remained unchanged for the remainder of Beethoven’s short life.

Why the name "60 Beans"?

Our name comes from the composer Ludwig van Beethoven, who began every morning by counting out exactly sixty coffee beans for his cup — never fifty-nine, never sixty-one — and grinding them himself. We named our coffee for his ritual, and we hold every blend we select to that same standard.
