Espresso Coffee Beans 1kg

A great espresso is created using a blend of different coffees that are suited to its style. While regular medium or light roast beans can be used to make espresso, they can release tasting notes that aren't appropriate for the drink.

The finest espresso beans are smooth and have a subtle taste and a rich crema. They also have less caffeine than drip-style espresso.

Origin

The origin story of espresso coffee beans is fascinating with a twist. According to legend, a 9th century Ethiopian Goat-herder named Kaldi found the first coffee plant among his goats and noticed its unique energizing effect on his goats. He began feeding his animals the fruits of the Coffea arabica plant, and they grew stronger, healthier, and started to become more active. This was the beginning of a drink that is enjoyed by people around the world.

The brew that we know as espresso is made by forcing hot water under pressure over a bed of finely crushed coffee beans. The brew produced is thick and concentrated, with a layer of smooth, tight bubbles, referred to as crema. This is the signature of a good cup of espresso and has helped create a cult around the drink.

Espresso isn't just a popular drink in cafes however, it is also a possibility to make at home. You can make the perfect cup of coffee every time by purchasing the proper equipment and roasting beans yourself. It takes a little longer than buying coffee from the shop, but the quality and taste are worth the wait.

It is crucial to select the right coffee beans for your espresso to ensure a smooth and delicious drink. Many people use regular coffee for making espresso. This is not recommended as they are ground and roasted differently, resulting in a weak or bitter the brew.

We offer espresso coffee beans in bags of 1kg coffee beans that are roasted and ground specifically for espresso brewing. You'll get an excellent cup of coffee each time. We only source the best quality Arabica and Robusta beans from farms that are committed to sustainable farming practices and ethical standards. This unique coffee comes from the Colombian region of Huila, which is renowned for its fertile valleys, snow-capped mountains, and soil which has been enhanced with minerals over time.

Roast

The roasting process is what transforms green beans that are raw into the coffee we drink. The roasting process is also responsible for the coffee's flavour, colour, and aroma. The roasting process requires a great deal of skill and experience in order to control the temperature so that the beans don't get burned or become bitter.

In the process of roasting, the beans lose some of their moisture and expand by up to 55. The beans will also begin to release carbon dioxide, which causes them expand and crack. This is known as the 1st Crack. The 1st Crack is the point where sugars start to caramelize and bound up water begins to escape. This is also the point that the structure of the bean breaks and allows oils to flow out of their pockets inside the seed. This is a crucial point when roasting and should you rush the process the coffee will be destroyed.

A well-roasted coffee will be full and rich of flavour with smooth, balanced taste. It will have a distinct aftertaste, with minimal sourness while maintaining the origin character of the bean. This is achieved by roasting the beans until they are into a medium-brown and have lost a lot of their moisture.

After the seeds have been roasted and cooled, they need to be cooled down as fast as is possible to stop them continuing to roast and release more carbon dioxide. The final outcome will depend on the speed of roasting and the speed at which they are cooled.

Espresso coffee is usually blended with different beans. While single origin beans work well for some brewing methods, the rich flavours of espresso require a mix of different bean types.

It is recommended to use a high-quality espresso machine to make the finest cup of espresso. The best machines come with an extra water tank for the espresso and a larger capacity boiler that allows for quicker heating. To maximize the extraction quality ensure that the water tank is filled with fresh, cold water.

Dose & Yield

One gram of ground coffee is used to create one shot of espresso. The ratio of liquid espresso to ground coffee has to be less than or equal to 1:2. The exact ratio depends on the density of your specific beans. Certain coffees are more heavy than others when they are ground to the same size. This is why a scale that is precise can be extremely useful!

The brewing temperature will also affect the way you use your beans. The ideal temperature is between 195 and 205-205 degrees Fahrenheit. This is due to the fact that the flavour compounds of your beans are optimally extracted within this range. A temperature that is higher or lower will impact the rate, quantity and consistency of extraction, and the texture, flavour and thickness of your crema.

There is always a compromise between a strong coffee and a rich flavor. The more you extract, the stronger it will be, but that also increases the risk of bitterness and acidity. You might be enticed by recipes with a high yield to make up for. However, as you increase the number of ingredients, you also increase the amount of water passing through the grinds. This is crucial and could cause more flavour to be lost.

Dose is the most flexible lever of control, but there are many other elements that play a part in the strength of your espresso. The ratio is the primary element, as is the quality of your grinder as well as the size and velocity of your portafilter as well as the speed at which you pull your shot.

For example, a longer ratio (less than 1:2) produces a smoky but balanced espresso with a sweet mouthfeel and clear flavours. On the other hand, a lower ratio will produce a more intense but less balanced espresso. The trick is to find the ideal balance for your taste. You can achieve this by playing around with the dose and adjusting the ratio according to the intensity you prefer and the flavour payoff.

Brewing

Espresso beans are roasted finer than regular coffee beans, and brewed at more pressure. This results in a stronger, more concentrated cup of coffee with more intense aromas and flavors. Espresso is used in a variety of coffee recipes including cappuccinos and lattes, which are typically made with milk. It is also sometimes mixed with other types of coffee in baking, or used as a garnish for chocolate- or coffee-based desserts.

Espresso coffee can also be prepared with different brewing methods, including Turkish coffee, French press, cold brew, and drip coffee. The type of brewing method you choose will depend on your personal preferences and the equipment you have. Making a few experiments with different methods of brewing and ingredients can help you find the perfect cup of espresso.

It is possible to use espresso beans for other beverages, however they should be reserved for espresso-based beverages. Espresso beans are roasted for longer, usually beyond the second crack. This results in the appearance of toasted, darker, and more intense flavor. Espresso beans are often roasted at higher levels of volatile compounds like trigonelline 2 as well as chlorogenic acids 4 which are responsible for the body and bitterness of espresso.

Although it is technically feasible however the result may not be as pleasing. This is due to the fact that espresso beans are roasted in order to produce particular tastes, such as chocolatey or fruity, and these is difficult to duplicate using other roasts.

The key to making espresso is to get a great crema. This is a thick, dense layer of coffee foam that rises to the top of the coffee when it's extracted at a high pressure. A well-formed crema indicates that you have incorporated all the ingredients you need, such as your coffee beans, grinder and resistance in the coffee bed, to create a great coffee.

The quality of your coffee beans is key to achieving a good creamy crema. The best espresso beans are those that have been roasted to a medium or dark roast and then ground as fine as is possible. They should also be fresh, as whole beans will retain their flavor and taste longer than ground varieties. It is also important to store beans in a sealed container free of heat and moisture.
