What Makes 80:20 the Classic Bangalore Ratio
Most of Bangalore's legendary filter coffee institutions — Vidyarthi Bhavan, CTR, Indian Coffee House — use roughly the same coffee-to-chicory ratio: 80% coffee, 20% roasted chicory root. The chicory rounds out the bitterness of dark-roasted coffee and adds body, which is part of why South Indian filter coffee tastes noticeably different from a straight espresso or pour-over. Our 80:20 blend follows that same tradition, sourced from estates in Coorg and Chikmagalur and roasted weekly rather than sitting on a shelf.
How to Brew It (Traditional Method)
- Add the coarse-ground powder to the upper chamber of a South Indian steel filter
- Pour boiling water slowly and let it steep for 8-12 hours (overnight works well)
- Collect the thick decoction from the lower chamber
- Mix roughly 1 part decoction with 3-4 parts hot milk, sweeten to taste
- Pour between tumbler and davara a few times to froth, and serve hot
