Origin The origin story of espresso coffee beans has a fascinating twist. According to legend, a 9th century Ethiopian Goat-herder named Kaldi discovered the first coffee plant among his goats. He noticed its unique energizing effect on his goats. He began feeding his herd the fruits of the Coffea plant, and they became stronger and healthier, as well as more active. This was the beginning of a fantastic drink, one which is now enjoyed by people across the world. The brew that we know as espresso is created by pushing hot water under pressure over a bed of finely ground coffee beans. The resulting brew is rich and concentrated with a layer on top of smooth, tight bubbles referred to as crema. This is the hallmark of an excellent espresso cup and has helped create a cult around the drink. Espresso isn't just popular 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 your beans yourself. It is more time consuming than just buying a coffee from the store, but it's worth the effort in terms of quality and taste. It is essential to choose the best coffee beans for your espresso to ensure a rich and delicious brew. Many people use regular coffee to make espresso.

We offer this unique coffee from the Colombian region of Huila that is famous for its fertile valleys and snow-capped mountains that have enhanced the soil with minerals over the years. Roast The roasting process is what transforms green beans that are raw into the coffee we drink. The roasting process is responsible for the coffee's taste color, aroma, and colour. The roasting process is a very precise science that requires ability and experience to regulate the temperature of the fire to ensure that the beans don't get burned and turn dark bitter or oily. While roasting, the beans can lose up a fifth of their moisture. They also increase in size. The beans also begin to release carbon dioxide, which causes them to expand and crack. This is called the 1st Crack. The first crack is the moment when sugars begin to caramelize, the bound water begins to leak out and the structure of the bean begins to break down, allowing oils to flow from their little pockets in the seed. This is a crucial stage during roasting, and if you rush it the coffee will be destroyed. A well-roasted coffee will be full and rich of flavor with a smooth, balanced profile. It will have a distinct aftertaste and minimal sourness, while retaining the original character of the bean. This is accomplished by roasting beans until they turn into a medium-brown and have lost a lot of their moisture. After the seeds are roasted, it is important to cool them down as fast as you can to prevent the seeds from roasting further. This will release more carbon dioxide. Depending on the method by which they are cooled and the speed at which they are done, they will either end with a light roast, medium roast, or a dark roast. Coffee labelled as 'espresso' is usually made up of various beans. While single origin beans work for brewing techniques however, the intense flavors of espresso require a mix of various bean varieties. To make the finest espresso it is recommended that you invest in a top quality espresso machine. The top machines come with separate tanks for espresso and an electric boiler with a greater capacity that allows for quicker heating. To increase the quality of extraction make sure to fill the tank with fresh, cold water. Dose & Yield A single shot of espresso is created by pushing one gram of ground coffee through the brewing process. The ratio of espresso liquid to ground coffee must be less than or equal to 1:2. The exact ratio will depend on the density of the beans. Some coffees occupy more volume by weight than others when ground to the same size, this is why a precise scale is crucial! The temperature of the brew can influence how you use your coffee beans. The ideal range lies between 205-205 degrees Fahrenheit to 195 degrees. This is because the flavor compounds in your beans are best extracted in this range. A higher or lower temperature can affect the texture, flavour, and the thickness of the crema and also the consistency and quantity of extraction. There is always the choice between extracting your coffee to an extremely strong strength and also having a rich taste. The more you extract, the stronger it will be, but that also increases the chance of bitterness and sourness. You may be tempted to offset this by using recipes that have an excellent yield. As you increase the multiplier, you also increase the amount of water passing through the grinds. This is significant and usually means that more of your flavor is being diluted and lost. Dose is the most flexible lever for control, but there are many other factors that influence the intensity of your espresso. The ratio is the most crucial factor, as is the precision of your grinder, the size and speed of your portafilter as well as the speed at which you take your shot. For instance, a greater ratio (less than 1:2) produces a smoky but balanced espresso with a sweet mouthfeel and clarity of flavours. On the other hand, a shorter ratio will yield a more intense but less balanced espresso. Finding the right balance is crucial. You can achieve this by playing around with the dose and changing the ratio based on your preferred intensity and flavor payoff. Brewing Espresso beans are roasted finer than regular coffee beans and brewed with greater pressure. This results in a stronger and more concentrated shot of coffee with more intense aromas and flavors. Espresso is used to make lattes, cappuccinos and other drinks made from coffee that are usually made from milk. Espresso can be used in baking or as a garnish on desserts made with coffee or chocolate. Espresso coffee can be made by various brewing methods, including Turkish coffee, French press, cold drip, and brew. The type of brewing method you choose will depend on your personal preferences and the equipment you've got. You can determine the best espresso by trying different brewing methods and ingredients. Espresso beans can be used in other drinks made with coffee, but they are best suited for drinks that are espresso-based. Espresso beans are roasted longer, usually beyond the second crack. This results in more dark, toasted and more intense flavor. Espresso beans are also roasted with higher levels of volatile substances such as trigonelline 2 as well as chlorogenic acids 4, which contribute to the body and bitterness of espresso. While it is technically possible, the results would not be as pleasing. This is because espresso beans are roasted to produce specific tasting notes such as fruity or chocolaty, which can be difficult to duplicate using other roasts. When making espresso, the most important thing is to create a high-quality crema. This is a dense thin layer of coffee foam that reaches the surface of the coffee when it is extracted under a high pressure. A great crema is an indication that you have combined all the essential ingredients like your coffee beans, grinder, and resistance in the coffee bed, to make a fantastic coffee. The quality of your coffee beans is key to achieving a great, creamy crema. The most ideal espresso beans are ones that have been roasting to medium or dark roast and that have been ground as fine as is possible. Freshness is also important since whole beans keep their flavor and taste for longer than ground varieties. It is also important to keep beans in a sealed container away from heat and moisture.
