Classic Italian espresso, strong and satisfying with notes of dark chocolate, praline and caramel.

Bean to cup espresso machine users are often disappointed to discover that dark roasted beans aren't recommended for their machines, simply because their oils tend to lead to clogged burrs, which is an issue with most bean to cup coffee machines as they don't usually have removable burrs.

Fear not, if you love classic Italian espresso blends and you have a bean to cup coffee machine, these beans deliver the classic profile you'll love, without the potential damage to your machine.

How it Tastes

This is a classic satisfyingly traditional Italian espresso profile, punchy with dark chocolate, praline and caramel notes, and you can enjoy this coffee without worrying about clogging up your burrs, which is a big positive for bean to cup coffee machine users.

These beans aren't only great for bean to cup coffee machine users, of course, they'll work with all espresso machines paired with stand alone grinders, and integrated grinder espresso machines - and this is also a great blend for stove top & cafetiere.

Classic Arabica and Robusta Blend

This is a great example of the art of coffee blending, and goes to show that you don't necessarily have to use roast level to produce punchiness and intensity.

It's a blend of high quality Arabica and Robusta beans, which is the standard for Italian espresso blends, but the mix of the beans used leads to the satisfying punch, without having to roast quite to the same classic Italian dark roast profile.

Fantastic Coffee

New adventure buying an automatic cup to bean machine and took Kev's advice on the Classic Italian Espresso beans, being machine friendly and I absolutey love the taste, well balanced flavour with a clean after taste, mainly drinking espresso, americano, but also works well with cappuccino.
Will be placing an subscription for my next order.
Excellent service from Coffeeworks.

Beans bought for De'Longhi Dedica

This is the first bag of speciality coffee I bought so I can use my bottomless portafilter on my new De'Longhi Dedica. The extraction from these beans is beautiful and makes such a difference. I have the Sage Smart Grinder Pro that I use to grind the beans fresh for each shot (used the discount from Kevin's Coffee Blog, thanks Kev).
Takes a bit of tweaking to extract the flavour I was looking for, I had to go as fine as grind size 6. Any coarser and it tasted a bit sour.
Great beans, and good price for 1kg. Love that how fresh they are roasted too, literally the day before they arrived.
