Blend coffee and Pour over(V60) single-origin coffee are the two most common industry terms, referring to different types of coffee beans.
Blend coffee is a recipe that combines coffee beans from two or more origins. It is usually used in espresso machines. Therefore, in order to highlight the oiliness and mellowness, medium or dark roasting is generally used to make the coffee extraction more stable and the taste more balanced.For example, if one kind of coffee bean is smooth but lacks aroma, you can add another bean with rich aroma. The advantages of individual coffee beans can be used to complement each other and complement or enhance the taste.
The earliest coffee blending was to reduce costs. There is no doubt about this. However, after entering the era of specialty coffee, reducing costs is no longer the only goal. Customers will be more concerned about the flavor of coffee and pay higher prices. Roasters will choose high-quality coffee beans for combination to achieve better flavor effects.
The biggest feature of espresso is that it is rich and fragrant. After adding milk/water, etc., the coffee flavor is still obvious. In addition, because the coffee machine is an incremental extraction and the time is short, we give priority to using fresh blended coffee beans with medium and dark roasts, which not only provides sufficient oil, but also brings a rich roasting aroma to the espresso, thus making our extraction process twice the result with half the effort.
