The kilo
maths

Same coffee, bigger bag. Here is the whole sum — check it yourself.

1kg bag at $55 — that’s 5.5c a gram$0.99
You save, every cup45c

A cup here is an 18g double shot.

2. Now a year of it

4 cups a day — 504g a week, 52 weeks26.2kg
That much, bought in 250g bags$2,096.64

Drink half that — two cups a day — and you keep about $328. Postage is a flat $10 anywhere in Australia whatever size you order, so one kilo posts for the same $10 as one small bag. Shipping for coffee gear is calculated separately at checkout.

Green bean to first crack

“Part art, part science” — Mifeia’s own roasting philosophy. Every batch walks the same six stages; where it leaves the drum is what makes it a light, medium or dark roast. Keep scrolling — the roast runs as you go.

Stage 01 / 06

Charge

Green beans hit a hot drum and the temperature drops away under them. Right now this smells like hay, not coffee.

Stage 02 / 06

Drying

Free moisture leaves the bean. It shrinks, it lightens, and green turns to straw.

Stage 03 / 06

Maillard

Sugars and proteins start browning together. The whole room smells like baking bread, and the colour walks from straw into amber.

Stage 04 / 06

First crack

Steam finally wins. The bean fractures along its seam and you hear it across the room — a hard, dry snap, like kindling. From here it is coffee.

Stage 05 / 06

Development

Everything after the crack is the decision. Seconds in here are what separate a delicate filter roast from a bold espresso roast.

Stage 06 / 06

The drop

Out of the drum and into the cooling tray. Roasted on the Gold Coast, bagged, and sent.
