This spray free Australian coffee is excellent!

There are a number of Australian coffees that can be ordered online but this Zentfeld’s coffee is my favourite.

In general Australian coffees are:
- chemically free as Australia does not have the common coffee pests;
- overseas coffees travel a long way to get here, so Australian coffees have much lower transport miles; and
- they are of good quality.

I hand grind coffee beans for a fresher brew and use an espresso, stove-top, stainless steel Italian-style coffee maker. The used coffee grinds are spread thinly on the garden. This way you get a lovely coffee; there are no coffee pods; composting occurs; and the only waste is the coffee bag (which in Australia must be recyclable by 2025).
