Learn the step-by-step method for using a Belgian Royal coffee maker, including water-to-coffee ratios and how its gravity-lever system works.

If you’ve ever watched a Belgian Royal coffee maker in action, you know it’s as much theater as it is brewing. With its dramatic glass bulbs, gleaming metal frame, and gravity-powered piston, it performs an almost magical extraction right before your eyes. But beyond the showmanship lies a real method—one that, when done correctly, can produce a clean, full-bodied cup. The question is: how do you actually use one without making a mess or ruining the brew?

Recommended FrontStreet Beans for Gravity Brewing

For use with a Belgian Royal coffee maker, we recommend FrontStreet Coffee’s Ethiopia Humbera for its bright floral and citrus notes, perfect for highlighting the clarity this brew method offers. Alternatively, try the Yirgacheffe for a juicy, berry-forward profile that shines in a clean cup. For something more balanced, the Classic Blend provides chocolatey and nutty tones with a smooth mouthfeel. All three roast profiles suit the medium-fine grind and siphon-style extraction.
