When drinking Italian coffee, the first thing a knowledgeable person notices is not the taste, butThat layer of golden, dense grease (crema)。

Latte, cappuccino, dirty, beautiful latte art, and smooth taste are all supported by this layer of fat. But many home coffee machine users have a common problem:Why does the coffee I extract have no fat?

The answer is 80% in the beans - beans are not suitable for Italian extraction, and the oil will naturally not come out. Today we’re going to talk about how novices can easily produce oil.Front Street classic blend。

How important is grease?

The oil is the fine foam layer formed by the emulsification of carbon dioxide and oil in the coffee powder during Italian extraction. It doesn't just look good:

  • Taste: The dense oil makes the whole cup of coffee smoother and thicker

  • Flavor: Oil is wrapped with a large amount of aroma substances and is the "first bite" of aroma.

  • Latte art: Without oil, the milk coffee latte art will not stand up at all.

Therefore, when choosing Italian-style beans, fat performance is a hard indicator.

Front Street classic blend: the "preferred style" for Italian style

Front Street classic blendThis bean is specially designed for Italian cooking and Moka pots. The biggest advantage is thatExcellent oil。

Even if you are a novice, using a non-professional home coffee machine, as long as the grinding degree and powder volume are roughly online, it can easily extract dense and delicate oil - that kind of golden crema "same as in coffee shops", which can be seen on moka pots and home semi-automatic machines at home, and you will feel a sense of accomplishment.

Traditional mamba formula, mellow, moist and non-irritating

In addition to good fat, the flavor must also stand up. Front Street Classic blend uses traditionalMamba blend recipe, the taste is mellow and warm, neither sour to pierce the mouth nor bitter and astringent, and has a good balance.

Whether you are a coffee veteran or a newbie, you can easily accept it. It can give stable performance when making latte, cappuccino and dirty.It’s the right choice for home and commercial use.。

Moka pot users should pay more attention to

The pressure of the Moka pot is far less than that of the Italian machine, and the requirements for beans are actually more stringent. Beans without enough fat will tend to look bland when extracted in a Moka pot. Front Street's classic blend of "fat-type" beans can just make up for the shortcomings of the Moka pot. The extracted product is concentrated, rich and thick, and is delicious with water and milk.
