It is important to choose coffee beans of the highest quality, preferably from high altitudes and small farms; coffee beans that are not sprayed or over-roasted and purchased directly from the coffee growers. You won’t find such coffee beans in grocery stores but need to look at specialty coffee shops or online. Just like with everything we select, quality is our guiding principle. We recommend brands such as: Kafferostare Per Norby, Johan & Nyström, Koppi Fine Roasters, Drop Coffee Roasters, Da Matteo, Love Coffee Roasters, and The Barn – try some of these coffee varieties and you will understand that coffee offers a world of new experiences. We make our coffee either with an Aeropress or a stainless steel moka pot.
What is the difference between chaga powder and chaga extract in powder form?
Chaga belongs to the family of tree fungi. It has a structure that is practically impossible for our digestion to extract anything from in its raw form. But when heated in water, many active substances are released that are beneficial to us. The chaga extract is double-extracted using alcohol to extract the adaptogenic terpenes and with hot water to extract the water-soluble immune-modulating polysaccharides. This method allows extraction of both the water-soluble and fat-soluble components of the Chaga mushroom. Since it is already extracted, you can enjoy it directly in, for example, a smoothie, hot water, hot chocolate, or coffee. If you buy a powder that is not an extract, you must first brew tea from it or make your own extract to benefit from the useful substances.
