Honduras / Light-Medium / Delicate

Aptly named, ‘El Corazon’- “The Heart”– is a product of strenuous labor and an enduring passion for great coffee, which embodies the very essence of Brickhouse, in more ways than one. With each sip, you’re sure to experience the culture and authenticity of the farmer’s personal touch. Lightly roasted, flavorful and highly satisfying, each bean is a gift from our Honduran brothers and sisters, and we’re proud to extend this piece of our heart to you.

Until the end of April, we’re donating 50% of our proceeds from the sale of our most popular coffee, El Corazon , to 5 organizations we deeply care about in Indy. They are:

Hope Center Indy – They help sex trafficking victims find hope and healing;

91 Place – They are a transitional housing program serving homeless youth;

Dream Center Indy – They take at-risk families on an 18-month pathway out of poverty;

Agape Therapeutic Riding – They help children cultivate personal growth by strengthening their mind, body, and spirit through unique horse-assisted experiences;

Battle Scarred Motorsports – They provide a safe environment for veterans to transition to civilian life;

We know that when we bring communities together through our products, everyone wins! We hope you’ll join us in supporting these organizations—and let us know which one is your favorite!

HOW TO

COFFEE BREW

You can brew this coffee in any number of ways. Brew it with a French press, AeroPress, as a pour-over or with your drip or espresso machine!

RECOMMENDED METHOD

CHEMEX

BOIL WATER

1 Cup Chemex – Boil 300 ml of water at 205 F

2 Cup Chemex – Boil 510 ml of water at 205 F

3 Cup Chemex – Boil 750 ml of water at 205 F

WEIGH & GRIND COFFEE

1 Cup Chemex – Grid 20 grams medium courseness

2 Cup Chemex – Grid 34 grams medium courseness

3 Cup Chemex – Grid 50 grams medium courseness

PREPARE FILTER

Unfold the filter and place it into your Chemex. Pour some hot water to wash out the papery taste and discard. Then, place the ground coffee into the filter and lightly shake to flatten the grounds on top to allow for a more even pour.

BLOOM YOUR COFFEE

To make an excellent cup of coffee, start by pouring 100 grams of water over the grounds in a spiral motion. Wait for about 40 seconds, until the water has mostly dripped through and the grounds have cratered. This process helps to release gases, which improves the finished cup.

BREW INTIMATELY

Add water in two equal gram increments. Pour slowly into the middle of your grounds until all the water has been added. Wait until dripping stops and extraction is finished before removing the filter and grounds. The brew should take you around 3 to 5 minutes.

THE BRICKHOUSE DIFFERENCE

We’re not just roasting coffee, we’re roasting experiences. We want to be part of our customers’ everyday routine, and hope that you’ll journey with us in different settings of your life – whether it’s in the comfort of your own home, at work, or anywhere else that you enjoy coffee.
