THE PERFECT COFFEE
You are looking for an espresso with a 2 - 3mm crema and a rich, dark brown colour
underneath (the exact colour will depend on the bean you have chosen).
• It should have a taste that is full of flavour (whether mild and subtle or rich and strong) and
should not be bitter. It should stay hot to the bottom of the espresso.
• A espresso shot should be 35ml extracted from 7g of ground coffee or 1x capsule.

CHARACTERISTICS
The roast will affect the strength and flavour of the coffee. Generally the darker the roast the
stonger the coffee will be.
Try beans from around the world. As with wine, the soil, climate and cultivation methods all
affect the taste of the coffee, producing anything from a mild, mellow blend to a rich, dark
roast.
Whole beans will keep for fourteen days in an air-tight container or 45 days in the freezer.
Divide a big bag of beans into several smaller containers before freezing so you only open
what you require.
