Frequently asked questions

What kind of coffee is Moon Runner?
Moon Runner is our house espresso blend — a smooth, medium roast made from 100% organic, Fair Trade beans from Colombia, Guatemala and Peru. It's designed to be versatile: balanced enough for black coffee, with enough body to stand up to milk. Expect toffee sweetness, dark chocolate and a citrus finish.

Is Moon Runner good for milk coffees like flat whites and lattes?
Yes — it's what Moon Runner was built for. Add milk and it turns smooth and sweet, with balanced flavours of malt, caramel and soft fruit. It's the same blend we pour across the counter at our Federal and Billinudgel cafés, so if you've had a flat white from Moonshine, you've had Moon Runner.

What brewing methods and machines work with Moon Runner?
Moon Runner is roasted for espresso but is versatile enough to shine through on an Aeropress, Pour Over, French Press or Stovetop too. It works on home machines — Breville, De'Longhi, Sunbeam — as well as commercial setups like La Marzocco. Our recipe guide (22g dose, 44g yield, 30–32 seconds) is written for a commercial machine; on a home machine with a smaller basket, keep the same ratio and scale the dose down.

How does Moon Runner compare to Lucky Lane?
Moon Runner is our lighter, more versatile house blend — medium roast, toffee and citrus, built to work across brew methods. Lucky Lane is slightly darker and more developed, made for milk-based espresso, with an earthy, full body and bitter-sweet chocolate finish. If you want an everyday all-rounder, start with Moon Runner; if you want something bolder for milk drinks, try Lucky lane.

Is Moon Runner organic?
Yes. Moon Runner is sourced from Certified Organic producers and made from a blend of coffees — Colombia, Guatemala and Peru, all washed process.
