    Biotrē Bags 2.0

    Our 340g and 2lb coffee bags are made entirely of from plant materials and breakdown in a relatively short period of time.

     Biotrē 2.0 FAQ 

    Are these bags completely compostable?
    No, due to the inner lining made of sugar cane. However, this layer is made sustainably with 100% renewable material (meaning not made of fossil fuels, but instead bio-based and natural resources that can be replenished through a natural process).

    That’s not all. About 60% of the bag components break down under standard composting conditions, so they can be partially composted in your back yard compost. Go earth!


    Can I put this in the city compost?

    You should not put these bags in the Calgary city compost, due to rudimentary composting facilities. However, you can compost the outer lining in a healthy home compost which will break down within 12 weeks. Dispose of the sugar cane layer in the garbage afterward.

    What if I don't have access to a backyard compost?
    Please dispose of the bags in the garbage. It may feel wasteful, however, these bags will break down at least 10 times faster in a landfill vs other coffee bags because of the plant-based materials they're made with.


    How are these bags better for the environment?
    The plant-based components that go into Biotre® 2.0 absorb the greenhouse gas CO2 through natural plant respiration prior to being used. Manufacturing these bags produces a significantly smaller carbon footprint (as much as 60% less from the typical coffee bags). They break down much faster in the landfill as well. We're talking 5-10 years vs 100 years, which is the time it takes for most other coffee bags to break down!

     


    Our 340g and 2lb bags are made with Biotrē 2.0 materials, which are 60% compostable and 100% renewable, including the valve!

    Additional FAQ on our new bags

    What’s the difference between the red bag and the black bag?
    The red bag contains the coffees with an acidity rating from 3-5. The black bag contains coffees with an acidity rating of 2 or lower.
    In summary: coffees that are a little more adventurous—red; comfortable and more classic coffees—black.


    How does the Sweetness, Acidity, and Body Scale work?

    This is an internal scale from 0-5 comparing our own coffees. Each coffee is cupped and the sweetness, acidity, and body are rated. Keep in mind that different brewing methods may affect results.

    Finca Deborah—'Echo' Cascara Infused CM Washed Geisha 100g

    This is a 100g bag

    raspberry  /  hibiscus  /  blood orange  /  nectarine

    Sweetness ●●●●○     Acidity ●●●●●     Body ●●●○○

    The Geisha coffee exhibits deep and intense fruit flavors, showcasing the full potential of sweetness in a coffee. It offers a medley of red fruit flavors such as raspberry and blood orange, complemented by juicy nectarine and a syrupy body that creates an immensely sweet taste. The Geisha's intense lively florals are characterized as hibiscus, which also contributes to the overall sweetness throughout your cup!

    The 'Echo' processing method begins with a meticulous selection process, where only the perfectly ripe coffee cherries with a BRIX reading of 21-24 are chosen. These cherries are then pulped and added to fermentation tanks along with cascara (coffee cherry), and mixed thoroughly. To create an anaerobic environment that enables coffee to ferment for over 50 hours, the tanks are flushed with carbon dioxide, while monitoring the pH, temperature, and CO2 levels throughout the fermentation process.

    *Please note that Gold Series coffees are excluded from regular discounts & promotions.

    Amazing and worth it

    Bit the bullet and tried this and it did not disappoint. It's smooth and fruity. No bitter after taste and leaves a nice mouthfeel. The cup of coffee I bought (really wanted to try it despite it being $12 a pop) at Stephens Ave was one of the best I've had. The manager even made it fun by letting me decipher via a flavour wheel on how my sips tastes like.

    Biotre bags are made 100% from plant based material.

    Both the manufacturing and disposing process is better for the environment.

    Composting Biotrē Bags

    You can compost the outer lining in a healthy home compost, which will break down within 12 weeks.
