SOE is a single-origin Italian, single origin is a single-origin, espresso is an Italian concentrate, and its opposite is Blend, which means blended coffee beans that we are familiar with. Some people may ask, are SOE and single-origin coffee the same thing?


In fact, the two are included and included, but not completely equivalent. Single-origin coffee can be used to make any kind of coffee, such as hand brewing, siphoning, French press, hanging ear, etc. When using it to make espresso, it is the SOE we want.

Whether it is Italian blended coffee beans or Italian single-origin coffee beans, they have to go through the high temperature and pressure of the Italian coffee machine. The taste of the extracted espresso coffee will be amplified a lot, that is, the acid will become more sour and the bitter will become more bitter.


In order to reflect the "personalization" of SOE, the quality of coffee beans must be guaranteed to a certain extent, the defect rate cannot be too high, and high-quality single-origin beans must be selected for production.

The roasting degree and extraction must take into account the unique flavor characteristics of the production area, which has technical requirements for roasters and baristas. If the roasting degree is too deep, the espresso coffee will easily have only a bitter taste, and the aroma substances cannot be reflected; the roasting degree is too light, and it is difficult to extract oil and flavor. Once the grinding degree and extraction parameters are not controlled well, the taste of SOE will even become sour and irritating, and the milk coffee will be even more "no coffee flavor".


Therefore, it is recommended to use medium-roasted or medium-dark roasted single-origin beans to make SOE, so that the extraction is more stable and the flavor is safer. At the same time, in order to ensure that the espresso has moderate oil, it is necessary to ensure that the coffee beans are in a fresh tasting state. After 50 days of roasting, the coffee beans have lost their original aroma, and the SOE American or SOE latte will be tasteless.
