I believe that many friends first came into contact with coffee from espresso drinks, such as espresso latte with milk and espresso with water. They are very popular among people. Many people will be curious: Do you have to use dark roasted beans to make espresso? What kind of coffee beans would be more suitable for making espresso at home?

 

Choose any oneItalian blended coffee beansBefore using, we first ensure the freshness of the coffee beans

There are two ways to judge whether the coffee beans are fresh or not. One is to directly check the roasting date on the packaging bag. If it is within five days, it means it is very fresh; if it is about a month, it means we need to drink it as soon as possible; the other method is to judge from the time of brewing. If the extracted concentrated oil is rich and rich in color, it means the coffee beans are still very fresh. If the oil is thin and the color is light, it means the coffee beans have been stored for too long.

The reason why there is so much emphasis on the freshness of coffee beans is because as time goes by, coffee that has been roasted for more than 50 days will basically have no aroma, and may even have a woody smell, so even the best beans are a waste.

It is recommended to use blended coffee beans when making espresso. Why?

Blend coffee, also known as blended coffee and espresso beans, is to mix various single-origin coffee beans together to fully bring out the advantages of various single-origin coffee beans. The blended beans are mixed from coffee beans from different production areas to create a more balanced taste. For example, if a 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, thereby creating a new and richer taste of coffee.
