Kloo delivers the first-ever Q grader-crafted coffee concentrate to your door
Crafted by the equivalent of a wine sommelier
Kloo Coffee

Many coffee and cold brew concentrates have recently been launched in the coffee market, but none have been crafted by Q Graders—until now. Kloo is the first coffee concentrate crafted by a Q Grader (the equivalent to a coffee sommelier), bottled and delivered right to your door. Kloo sets itself apart with its unique brewing process, invented by Kloo co-founder Mariella Cho. Kloo's coffee concentrates are roasted, brewed, aged, and bottled in-house, with Kloo having full control of its proprietary process.

The process begins by sourcing excellent quality coffee beans, which are graded on a scale of 100 by Q graders (trained and certified professional coffee sommeliers). A score of 85+ is the bar for excellence as defined by the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA). Kloo only sources beans scored 85 or greater. The brand tests many different coffee beans before deciding which to use, understanding that each bean represents a unique set of flavors that contribute to the range of options the world of coffee offers. After the beans are selected, the roasting process begins.

Arabica vs. Robusta: What to know about the most common types of coffee beans
What makes these coffee beans different?
coffee bean

Though my grandmother thinks "coffee is coffee," there are over 100 known types of coffee plant species, each with its unique traits. However, most of the coffee we consume worldwide comes from two main species: Arabica and Canephora. More commonly known as Arabica or Robusta coffee beans, these two varieties have unique characteristics in taste, caffeine content, ideal growing elevation, and more.

Each of these characteristics sets them apart and shows the average coffee drinker, like my grandmother, that coffee is not all the same. Different growing conditions and attributes translate to two different cups of coffee when brewed. Let's compare Arabica vs. Robusta and the qualities of each kind of coffee bean.

Coffee in savory dishes: Chef Nagae’s secret to adding depth and complexity
Add complexity to savory dishes with coffee
Roasted Venison

Daring and innovative chefs such as Mitsunobu Nagae, owner and Executive Chef of Tribeca’s warm, sophisticated, and elegant French restaurant in New York City, l’abeille, have found new and artistic ways to use coffee in savory and fine dining applications. That's right -- there could be coffee in your meal when dining out at a signature restaurant. To learn more about why coffee and tea are becoming more popular on fine dining menus, I asked Chef Nagae to share his thoughts on why this trend has taken off. Here's what he shared.
How Chef Nagae uses coffee in his dishes

When I heard Chef Nagae used coffee in savory dishes, my mind immediately wandered, wondering what method of coffee he used in his dishes. I asked him to describe how he uses coffee in savory meals, such as ground coffee, liquid coffee, coffee beans, or other coffee beans.
"I don't have a particular brand [of coffee] I use [when cooking], but I usually prefer dark roast coffee when I create dishes. The beans infuse flavors in the sauces, so they're present yet subtle. When I want stronger flavors, I would add ground powdered coffee directly. When I use coffee in savory ice cream, we normally infuse the mixture with coffee beans; otherwise, it becomes too overpowering," he shares.
"We use coffee as an additional flavor component in our dishes to add complexity. Coffee works well in dishes with a dairy component (e.g., we use ground coffee in our potato purée, which has butter) or red meat. When grilled, the caramelized flavors we get in red meat work very well with coffee as they echo each other and work in tandem to provide layers of depth."
"For example, at my restaurant, l'abeille, we’ve offered a Roasted Venison dish that uses coffee cream infused truffle and Madeira sauce to bring out deep earthy flavors, with additional ground coffee in the hazelnut crust that enhances the nutty aroma. For a sweet and savory coffee crossover, we’ve even served a Pea Velouté with Coffee ice cream, providing adventurous guests with a fresh flavor combination using sweet green peas combined with complex coffee ice cream that also plays with temperature difference."
