A great espresso is created with a blend of coffees that are suitable for its style. While medium or light roast beans can be used to make espresso, they could release tasting notes that aren't appropriate for the beverage.

The best espresso beans are smooth and nuanced, with a a rich crema. They also contain less caffeine than drip-style coffee.

Origin

The origin of espresso coffee beans is an intriguing story. According to legend, a 9th century Ethiopian goat-herder named Kaldi discovered the very first coffee plant in his herd. He noticed that it had a unique invigorating effect on his herd. He began to feed his animals the fruits of the Coffea arabica plant and they grew stronger and healthier, and began to become more active. This was the birth of a drink that is enjoyed by people all over the world.

Espresso is made by pushing hot water through finely ground coffee beans. The resulting brew is smoky in flavor and extremely concentrated, with a layer of smooth tight bubbles on top known as the crema. This is the hallmark of a fantastic espresso and it has created a whole culture around the beverage.





Espresso is not just a popular drink in cafes, but can be made at home. Buying the appropriate equipment and roasting your own beans will help you make the perfect cup every time. It can take a little longer than buying coffee at the supermarket but the quality and flavor are worth the wait.

Choosing the right coffee beans for espresso is crucial to ensure that your espresso will be rich and delicious. Many people use regular coffee for making espresso. This is not recommended because they are roasted and ground differently, which could result in a weak or bitter brew.

The espresso coffee beans 1kg we offer are specially ground and roasted to suit the espresso brewing method and will provide you with the best cup of coffee every day every time. We only purchase Arabica and Robusta coffee beans from farms committed to sustainable farming and high ethical standards. This particular coffee comes from the Colombian region Huila, which is known for its fertile valleys, snow-capped mountains and soil that has been enriched by minerals over time.

Roast

The process of roasting transforms the raw, green beans into the coffee we drink. It also gives the coffee its taste color, aroma and colour. The roasting process is a very precise science and requires a lot of expertise and experience to manage the temperature of the fire so that the beans don't burn and become dark bitter or oily.

During the roasting process, the beans lose a bit of moisture and expand by as much as five percent. The beans also begin to release carbon dioxide, which causes them expand and crack. This is known as the 1st Crack. The first crack marks the point at which sugars begin to caramelize, bound up water starts to escape and the structure of the bean is broken down allowing oils to migrate from their little pockets in the seed. It is a critical point in the roasting process and If it is not done properly it could result in the coffee being ruined.

A well-roasted coffee will be rich and full of flavour with smooth, balanced taste. It will have a mild sourness and a strong aftertaste keeping the original flavor of the beans. This is accomplished by roasting the beans until they turn to a medium brown and have lost the majority of their moisture.

Once the seeds are roasted, they must be cooled down as quickly as they can so that they do not continue to roast and release more carbon dioxide. Based on how they're cooling and the speed at which they're done they may end in a light roast, medium roast or a dark roast.

Coffee labelled as 'espresso' is usually made up of various beans. While single origin beans work for some brewing methods but the smoky flavours of espresso require a blend of various bean types.

To make the best espresso, it is recommended that you use a high quality espresso machine. The best machines include a separate water tank for the espresso and a larger capacity boiler which allows for faster heating. To increase the quality of extraction ensure that the water tank is filled with cold, fresh water.

Dose & Yield

One shot of espresso is created by pushing one gram ground coffee through the brewing process. The ratio of liquid espresso to ground coffee should be less than or equal to 1:2. The precise ratio is dependent on the density of your particular beans. Some coffees occupy more volume by weight than others when ground to the same size - hence why using a precision scale is essential!

The temperature of the brew can determine how you utilize your coffee beans. The ideal range lies between 195 and 205-205 degrees Fahrenheit. This is due to the fact that the flavour compounds of the beans are optimally extracted within this range. A temperature that is higher or lower can impact the rate, quantity and consistency of extraction and the texture, flavour and thickness of your crema.

It is always a trade-off between strong coffee and rich flavor. The more you extract it, the stronger it will be, but that also increases the possibility of bitterness and sourness. You may be tempted by recipes with an impressive yield to compensate. But, when you increase the number of ingredients, you also increase the amount of water passing through the grinds. This is important and can mean that more flavour is lost.

Dose is the most flexible lever of control, however there are many other elements that influence the strength of your espresso. The ratio is the most important factor, along with the accuracy of your grinder, the size and speed of your portafilter and the speed at which you draw your shot.

For instance, a higher ratio (less than 1:2) will result in a strong but balanced espresso, with a syrupy mouthfeel and clear flavours. On the other hand, a shorter ratio will result in a more intense but less balanced espresso. The trick is to find the right balance for your palate. You can achieve this by playing around with the dose and changing the ratio based on your preferred intensity and flavor payoff.

coffee bean 1kg are ground more finely than regular coffee beans and brewed using greater pressure. This produces a stronger, more concentrated shot of coffee with more intense aromas and flavors. Espresso is used to make lattes, cappuccinos and other coffee drinks that are typically made with milk. Espresso is often used in baking or as a garnish on desserts that contain coffee or chocolate.

Espresso coffee can be prepared using a variety of brewing methods including drip coffee, Turkish coffee, cold brew, and French press. The type of brewing method you select will depend on your personal preferences and the equipment for brewing coffee you have at your disposal. You can find the perfect espresso by experimenting with different methods of brewing and ingredients.

Espresso beans can be used to make other coffee drinks, but they are most suitable for espresso-based drinks. Espresso beans are roasted for a longer, usually up to and past the second crack, which gives them a more dark, toasted and more intense flavor. In addition espresso beans are usually roast with higher levels of volatile compounds like trigonelline and trigonelline 2, which are responsible for the body, bitterness, and aroma of espresso.

Although it is technically feasible, the results would not be as pleasing. Espresso beans are roasted to bring particular flavors, like fruity and chocolatey, that are difficult to replicate with other roasts.

When making espresso, the main goal is to create a high-quality crema. It is a thick, dense layer of coffee foam that rises to the top of the coffee when it is extracted at a high pressure. A good crema indicates that you have incorporated the required fundamental inputs of your coffee beans grinder, grinder, resistance in the coffee bed and water temperature to create an excellent espresso.

The quality of your coffee beans is essential to achieving a good creamy crema. The most ideal espresso beans are ones that have been roasting to a medium or dark roast, and then ground as fine as is possible. They must also be fresh, since whole beans will preserve their flavor and taste longer than ground varieties. Lastly, it is important to keep your beans in an airtight container that is protected from moisture and heat.
