The coffee bean itself is the biggest factor that affects the flavor of coffee. If you don't choose high-quality coffee beans, you won't be able to taste the coffee. Today I would like to share with you some practical tips for newbies when buying and identifying the inside of coffee beans.
Coffee bean brands suitable for beginners
For newcomers with no experience, the variety of coffee beans will always be confusing and there is no way to start. If you are not careful, you will spend a lot of money but buy bad coffee, so it is very important to find a reliable brand.

Blend beans or single origin beans?
This is an interesting topic, but whether it is a combination or a single product choice, it ultimately comes down to personal preference. Most roasters believe that blended coffee beans have more stable flavor characteristics. They recommend Front Street Classic Italian Blend, Front Street Boutique Italian Blend, and Front Street Strawberry Candy Italian Blend, which are suitable for making espresso and moka pot coffees with a strong taste and rich oil. If you are pursuing a unique taste of coffee, it is best to buy single-origin coffee first. Not only are there many types to choose from, but each flavor will also have different flavors and aromas due to different brewing equipment.
The best way to find your favorite coffee is to keep trying new blends and single-origin coffees until you find the one you like best. At the same time, you can also ask the merchant for help and tell them what flavor you like. They will usually be very happy to help you find the most suitable coffee beans.
Coffee bean roasting style
The roasting of coffee beans is crucial to the development of flavor, and there are usually three shades of roasting: light, medium and dark.
The darker the coffee beans are roasted, the lower the acidity and the thicker the taste. This is because the coffee beans gradually lose their original taste during the roasting process, but this is not a bad thing. Darkly roasted coffee beans have a unique and pleasant aroma of chocolate or caramel. Front Street Commercial Blend has such characteristics. It is rich in oil and has a mellow taste, making it suitable for use as household rations and in stores.
On the contrary, lightly roasted coffee beans retain higher acidity and only have a lightly roasted flavor. We recommend Front Street Rwanda Red Bourbon, Front Street Ethiopian Oiran, Front Street Poquet Geisha, Front Street Ethiopian Fruit Tintin, Front Street Kaffa Forest, and Front Street Kenny. Sub-small tomatoes, front street washed Yirgacheffe, front street Yirgacheffe red cherry sun-dried... Such coffee beans are suitable for siphon coffee, Pour over(V60) filter coffee, D special press and cold brew coffee. Using these equipment to make coffee can more completely retain the original taste of the beans.
As for medium-roasted coffee beans, they are between dark and light. They are suitable for making coffee with Moka pots and French presses. They can also be used for hand brewing or espresso. There are many types of medium-roasted coffee, represented by Front Street. Costa Rica Blackberry, Front Street. Colombian Hija, and Front Street. Costa Rica Mozart.

Front Street suggests that you first consider which type of coffee you usually drink more, and then decide which coffee bean roasting style is most suitable for you. Among them, medium roasted coffee beans have a wider range of applications, light roasted coffee beans have a more complete taste, and dark roasted coffee beans have a stronger chocolate flavor. You can try various roasting styles of coffee and finally find the one that suits you.
