Fellow's Take on Arcadia by People Possession | Brew Recipe

People Possession is a Paris-based roaster that's built a cult following by doing things no one else does. Arcadia is their avant-garde light roast, a honey co-ferment with flowers that brews a juicy, electric cup. It’s a journey into a wide array of aromatics, from stone fruit to spice– a perfect alignment of vibrant, fruity complexity with a delicate, floral profile. 

Note: Arcadia is at its peak when rested for 4-6 weeks after roasting.

Grind Guidance

Start in the middle of your espresso range on your grinder, and Series 1 will tell you to go finer or coarser after your shot pulls. It is expected that you might need to adjust based on your specific variables (i.e. location, climate, water mineral content, etc.). Small adjustments go a long way!

Tips

• Adjust grind size if your shot pulls too fast (grind finer) or too slow (grind coarser)

• Clean your Series 1 regularly for optimal performance
