RDT: Ross Droplet Technique
RDT stands for Ross Droplet Technique, in summary adding a small amount of water to your dose of coffee before grinding will reduce the overall static and result in less retention in your grinder.
This method can be achieved by using a cup of water and a spoon, simply use the back of a spoon to dip into the water and then stir this wet spoon through your dose of coffee. However many people prefer using these spray bottles as they are closed off and don't risk spilling, they are refillable and dispense the perfect amount of water every time. These spray bottles in particular and made from Aluminium and coated in a matte black finish to suit all your favourite brewing equipment.
RDT Spray Bottle Features:
- Full Matte Black
- Plastic pump nozzle & Cap
- 50ml Capacity
- Reusable, simply push the internal pump base down using a chop stick and refill with water.
Ceramic Dosing Cup
Dosing cups are incredibly handy to have around, particularly for single dose grinders.
Before you grind your coffee, it is essential to weigh out your dose of coffee and is the perfect time to integrate RDT into your coffee grinding routine.
Made from a glazed ceramic material, these dosing cups are pointed to allow your coffee beans to funnel down and slide directly into your coffee grinder without making a mess.
The Ceramic Coffee Dosing Cup can hold around 30-40g of roasted coffee beans, this is an approximation as every coffee is different.

IT STARTS WITH THE BEANS
No matter how good your grinder, coffee machine or kettle is if you don't have high quality coffee beans you aren't going to have a good tasting coffee.
COMMON COFFEE PROCESSES
-
WASHED PROCESS
TRY A WASHED COFFEEWashed coffees (aka wet process) use water to remove the coffee seed from the cherry. This has the least amount of contact with the fruit and has a clean and often creamy taste. Washed coffees are commonly known to carry more flavours from the origin, terroir and variety rather than the processing flavours.
-
NATURAL PROCESS
TRY A NATURAL COFFEENatural coffees were popularised by producing countries that did not have as much access to water, this processing technique has since been adopted all over the world and tends to carry through a rich fruity flavour from the extended contact with the coffee cherries,
-
FERMENTED
TRY A FERMENTED COFFEEThere are many coffees that fall into this third category of coffee processing, the most popular being Anaerobic fermentation and Carbonic Fermentation (CM).
Expect funky fruity notes and an intense alcohol / boozey taste
