Make mesquite just like your coffee

Mesquite is brewed and prepared just like coffee. Make it an espresso machine, french press, moka pot, etc. The grounds work the same as espresso and drip coffee beans, so you can put them in any machine.

A few things to note:

  • These directions and recommendations are simply guidelines for brewing mesquite. Similar to coffee, mesquite can be brewed and prepared in many different ways.

  • Not all coffee-making devices are the same, nor is personal taste, so we recommend you experiment to find the right water to ground ratio for your tool and taste.
