Espresso FAQ

What makes espresso coffee different from regular coffee?

Espresso coffee is brewed under high pressure, creating a concentrated shot with a rich crema and bold flavor. The beans in this collection, such as Paulista Blend and Odilá Red Catuaí, are carefully selected and roasted to bring out deep, intense notes that pair well with both black and milk-based drinks.

What is the best grind size for making espresso?

Espresso requires a fine grind, similar to table salt, to ensure proper extraction under pressure. Using a high-quality burr grinder allows for precision and consistency, essential for pulling a perfect shot. The grind should be adjusted based on the machine and extraction time to prevent over- or under-extraction.

Is there a decaf option for espresso in this collection?

Yes! Swiss Water Decaf Coffee is a chemical-free decaf option, offering caramel and nutty notes with a mild profile. It is perfect for those who want a rich espresso experience without the caffeine.

How should I store espresso beans to maintain freshness?

To keep your espresso beans fresh, store them in an airtight container in a cool, dark place, away from moisture and direct sunlight. Grinding the beans just before brewing maximizes flavor, especially for delicate varieties like Gatekeeper Geisha Natural and Odilá Red Catuaí.

Which beans in this collection are best for milk-based drinks?

If you enjoy cappuccinos, lattes, or flat whites, the Paulista Blend offers a smooth mix of almond, chocolate, and red berries, making it an excellent base for creamy espresso drinks. Similarly, Mistura Fina Seasonal Blend adds nutty sweetness with hints of maple syrup, creating a well-balanced espresso.
