Different from the positioning of coffee shops, home production often pursues cost-effectiveness. The coffee must be delicious, affordable, and can be used as a daily necessity. So no matter which extraction method is used, when we choose coffee beans, we will give priority to whether it can become a food ration. Nowadays, espresso machines are no longer a "luxury product" exclusive to stores. Many friends are equipped with home versions, such as Delonghi and other brands, to make a cup of Americano or latte at leisure. However, for novices, how to choose the beans that suit them has become a problem.
1. Determine your favorite taste
As the saying goes, a thousand people have a thousand tastes. Everyone has their own preferences, and the same is true for coffee. For espresso coffee, pressurized extraction doubles the flavor, so it usually comes in three different flavors. You can choose according to your own taste:
Mellow and rich taste: Front Street classic blended Italian coffee
Reason for recommendation: Rich chocolate, nut, cocoa, caramel flavor, mellow taste, long-lasting aftertaste, rich in oil, very suitable for daily use at home.
Floral and sweet taste: Front Street Strawberry Candy Italian Blend Coffee
Reason for recommendation: The flavor has delicate aromas of roses, grapes, preserved fruits, and almonds. The cream is smooth, American-style sweet and sour, and suitable for those who don’t like bitter coffee.
Balanced taste of sourness and bitterness: Front Street black cocoa blend (100% Arabica) espresso coffee
Reasons for recommendation:A ration bean with soft fruit acidity, caramel sweetness, nutty and dark chocolate flavors, smooth and sticky texture, and a good price.
2. Recommended coffee bean brands for home use
When purchasing coffee beans for household use, you must look for a roaster with quality assurance. You can buy them through the official flagship store or Taobao store. Front Street Coffee, a time-honored brand in Guangzhou with a stable reputation, is the first choice.

3. Check the roasting date of coffee beans
Typically, coffee tastes best 4-30 days after roasting, so it's best to enjoy it as soon as possible within this time. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you can’t finish it, but be aware that the quality and flavor of the coffee will begin to lose after 30 days. The longer it is stored, the duller the taste of the coffee will be.
All Front Street Coffee beans are freshly roasted within 5 days, and the packaging has a clear roasting date. The coffee beans are of stable and excellent quality, and the price is very cost-effective. They are shipped within 24 hours, ensuring that everyone has a longer enjoyment period after receiving them.
