Espresso vs Coffee Beans? What is the Difference
Here is what defines "best espresso beans":
Coffee bean blend: High grown Arabica coffee blended with a small portion of Grade A Robusta coffee beans. Arabica from mountain plantations adds fruit sugar and is rich in natural coffee oils. Top quality Robusta adds espresso coffee strength without bitterness.
Fresh Roasted Coffee Beans: Roasted to order & shipped within 4 hours is the most important key to better espresso. Any espresso shot with beans that were roasted more than 3 weeks ago will contain bitter or sour notes.
Italian Coffee Roast: Slow roasting in small batches is the key to maximize naturally caramelized crema.
