Where it comes from

Waykan is not one farm's coffee but a selection: smallholder lots from Huehuetenango, chosen on cup quality and traceable to the region. The name means star in the Maya Q’anjob’al language — the light that shines in the sky at night. Somewhere around eighty per cent of the local economy depends on coffee, directly or indirectly. In the cup: praline and pecan with a soft, candy-like sweetness. It is the classic Central American profile, and the easiest one to ruin in the roaster.

Freshness and storage

The bag carries the roast date, so you can see exactly when it was made.

Whole bean is best between 4 and 8 weeks; ground, a few days. Keep it in a sealed bag at room temperature, away from light — the fridge doesn't help, and the freezer only works if you don't keep opening it.

Recipes

How we brew it

These are not generic recipes. The roast level and the character of the coffee together set the parameters — and we've written down why.

V60

Tiko recipe

Aiming for: Pecan, toffee, nougat.

Coffee
15 g
Water
250 g
Temperature
96 °C
Grind
medium-fine
Time
3:00–3:15
Ratio
1:16.7

Pour schedule

  1. 0:00 — bloom Pour 45 g of water and wait 45 seconds. This is when the carbon dioxide leaves — without it the water can't pass evenly through the bed.
  2. 0:45 — Pour 2 Add 100 g (145 g in total), pouring slowly in circles and keeping off the edge.
  3. 1:30 — Pour 3 Add 105 g (250 g in total), pouring slowly in circles and keeping off the edge.
  4. 2:20 — drawdown It should have drained by now. Much later, grind coarser; much earlier, grind finer.

Why this way: A washed Central American with predictable extraction. The textbook parameters work — what matters here is a steady pour, not a trick.

If it's off: Pour evenly, working outwards from the centre. If the nuttiness goes missing, grind slightly finer.

Chemex

Tiko recipe

Aiming for: Pecan, toffee, nougat.

Coffee

Pour schedule

  1. 0:00 — bloom Pour 80 g of water and wait 45 seconds. This is when the carbon dioxide leaves — without it the water can't pass evenly through the bed.
  2. 0:45 — Pour 2 Add 210 g (290 g in total), pouring slowly in circles and keeping off the edge.
  3. 2:00 — Pour 3 Add 210 g (500 g in total), pouring slowly in circles and keeping off the edge.
  4. 3:30 — drawdown It should have drained by now. Much later, grind coarser; much earlier, grind finer.

AeroPress

Tiko recipe

Coffee

Water

Temperature
92 °C

Time

Pour schedule

  1. 0:00 — bloom Pour 50 g of water and wait 30 seconds. This is when the carbon dioxide leaves — without it the water can't pass evenly through the bed.
  2. 0:30 — Pour 2 Add 190 g (240 g in total), pouring slowly in circles and keeping off the edge.
  3. 1:30 — plunge Stir once, fit the filter and press down steadily over 20–30 seconds.

Why this way: A washed Central American with predictable extraction. The textbook parameters work — what matters here is a steady pour, not a trick.

If it's off: Pour evenly, working outwards from the centre. If the nuttiness goes missing, grind slightly finer.

Clever Dripper

Tiko recipe

Aiming for: Pecan, toffee, nougat.

Coffee
18 g
Water
300 g
Temperature
96 °C
Grind
medium
Time
3:30
Ratio
1:16.7

Pour schedule

  1. 0:00 — bloom Pour on 60 g of water and wait 45 seconds. Fresh coffee floats on its own carbon dioxide; if you don't wet it first, part of the bed stays above the water line for the whole brew and never brews at all.
  2. 0:45 — filling Add the remaining 240 g (300 g in total) all at once. Stir once so every ground goes under the water, then cover it and let it stand.
  3. 2:45 — release Set it on the mug: the valve opens and it drains in about half a minute. The steep ends here — and this is the number to change first if the cup is not what you wanted.

Why this way: This coffee gains the most from immersion. A washed coffee with predictable extraction that can want for body in a cone — full immersion is exactly what adds it: the pecan and the toffee are rounder here than on a V60.

If it's off: It takes a longer steep well. If it tastes empty, add fifteen to thirty seconds before you go finer on the grind.

French press

Tiko recipe

Aiming for: Pecan, toffee, nougat.

Coffee
30 g
Water
500 g
Temperature
95 °C
Grind
coarse
Time
4:30
Ratio
1:16.7

Pour schedule

  1. 0:00 — bloom Pour on 100 g of water and wait 45 seconds. Fresh coffee floats on its own carbon dioxide; if you don't wet it first, part of the bed stays above the water line for the whole brew and never brews at all.
  2. 0:45 — filling Add the remaining 400 g (500 g in total) all at once. Stir once so every ground goes under the water, then cover it and let it stand.
  3. 4:00 — breaking the crust The grounds form a crust on top. Break it with two or three movements of a spoon, then skim off the foam and the grounds still floating — this is what makes the cup clean.
  4. 4:30 — plunge Put the lid on and press down slowly — the filter should stop on top of the grounds, not be pushed through them. Forcing it through the bed sends fines into the cup and keeps the coffee extracting after the time is up. Pour all of it out: whatever stays in the jug goes on brewing.

Why this way: This coffee gains the most from immersion. A washed coffee with predictable extraction that can want for body in a cone — full immersion is exactly what adds it: the pecan and the toffee are rounder here than on a V60.

If it's off: It takes a longer steep well. If it tastes empty, add fifteen to thirty seconds before you go finer on the grind.
