Things to consider before buying coffee beans Richness of flavor and aroma can be enhanced greatly and you will get the freshest cup of delicious coffee every single time. Whole beans are always a better choice so that you can grind them right before putting them into your espresso machine. If beans are already ground and ready-to-use, it will greatly dampen the taste, flavor and aroma of the blend. They may clog the screen on the brew unit, therefore making the machine unable to produce coffeeĪmong the most important things to consider while brewing an amazing cup of coffee is freshness of coffee you use.
They may create a clay pit in the grinder by causing coffee grounds to stick to each other.They will not flow into a grinder smoothly.Flavored beans and oily beans should be avoided at all costs because they can compromise a taste of a drink normally produced by your machine. Before you even begin to use your super-automatic espresso machine, we highly recommend you to check which kind of beans you have on hands. If you love your espresso and super-automatic espresso machine that makes it for you, then you really need to make sure you use the best beans to avoid issues. Why is it important to get the best beans for a super-automatic espresso machine? Among important features to consider are roast, origin, blend, and tasting notes of the coffee, to name a few. As you invest your time and money, all the right criteria must be met in order to ensure that you are getting high quality blend that suits your tastes and preferences. I've read that I should look for Medium-Dark roast but all I've seen locally are either Dark or Medium.Brewing a perfect cup of coffee is an art itself. Still searching for a good quality non-oily but strong tasting bean. For medium roast they looked quite oily so I'm not sure if we should use them long-term on our machine. It's not cheap but Sobey's had them on sale for around $12 for a 1 pound bag (I think they're regularly $18?). Today we picked up a pack of the Kicking Horse espresso bean (Cliff Hanger) and boy does it have a kick to it, but a very pleasant one. Genco Della Rossa Espresso beans from London Drugs, which are not oily at all but they have a somewhat mild flavour. I found those beans from Costco to be average tasting compared to what we've been using, the A. I cleaned out the hopper and it felt somewhat oily and a few of the beans had clumped together at the mouth of the grinder blocking the intake. This happened after we switched beans to the Kirkland Signature espresso (roasted by Starbucks) from Costco which are quite oily (very shiny beans). We have a Delonghi super-auto and I didn't really know the effects of using oily beans till this morning when the machine was telling us to fill the beans while the bean hopper was still full, and the grinder was essentially free-spinning. I'm glad I stumbled on this thread, it's a good topic especially for those of us who recently invested in a super-automatic espresso machine. This doesn't mean all dark roasts suck, some are delightfully smoky and strong, I'm just commenting on what I suspect the mass consumer guys do. dark roast movement is for logistical reasons as opposed to taste. It wouldn't surprise me to learn that the Starbucks/Blendz etc. Over roasted beans lose their flavour more slowly, because most of the "expirable" flavour has already been blasted out of it, so longer shelf life Over roasted beans kind of all taste the same, which means you can sneak in cheaper beans into the mix So why do that? Dark roast does have it's own distinct flavour but I suspect other reasons, especially for the super big companies (Starbucks et al): What happens is the longer they roast, it forces the oil to the outside of the bean, giving them an oily sheen. OIly beans are usually reserved for super dark roasts and french roasts. Maromas Orphea is a bit more mild, less of that bitter twist. I like the Lavazza Top Class or Super Crema if you're looking for a strong-ish but still drinkable Italian style drink. Just about all of the Italian espresso blends aren't going to be oily (Lavazza, Illy, Maromas, Kimbo, etc).
