- Espresso Blends
What makes your coffee so good?
Do you develop espresso blends?Yes, we certainly do! We believe that espresso coffee is something special and to get a great coffee out of the espresso coffee machines it would be best to blend different beans together. Why do you blend coffees?By blending coffee beans from different origins we can create a flavour that can not be found in a single bean. You get something unique and special and we really like that.

What blends for the espresso coffee machine do you have to offer?
Absolute Blend If you are looking for a coffee that is liked by pretty much anyone and is well balanced and works great as an espresso and with milk then this is it. We have tried our Absolute Blend on most commercial espresso machines and domestic machines and it always gives a very rich and smooth coffee. When brewed correctly you definitely do not need to add any sugar as the natural sweetness comes out. Blend & Roast - custom made blends We create many specialised espresso blends for coffee shops all over the UK. With the Blend & Roast program you can have your own coffee freshly roasted to order. Blends are made up of current in-season coffees that we have in stock. Prefer a light bodied sweet espresso? No problem, we can develop this for you. Do you like the Mocha / Java blend? No problem, we roast it for you. Either let us know what flavour you like or tell us what mixture of beans you prefer and we will take care of the perfect roasting profile for you. Why should I have a guest coffee?Keep your customers excited and interested by offering a different coffee every couple of weeks. We create many blends all the time and often have something really interesting that is freshly roasted. If you have two grinders then you can offer a guest coffee and serve your customers something special. A lot of our customers are doing this and the feedback is fantastic! A guest coffee gives your customer another reason to come back and prevents them from going to another coffee shop to try a different coffee.

Is the coffee fresh when it arrives?All the espresso blends are roasted daily and come with a roasted on date to prove that it is freshly roasted. The packaging keeps the coffee fresh and there is a one-way air valve to allow gases to escape. What can you tell me about freshness?Our espresso blends need to rest a couple of days before use. Believe it or not, but coffee that you use for the espresso machine can be too fresh. Ideally you use our espresso blends between 3 to 21 days after roasting. Very fresh coffee will give you an espresso that is too bright with a lack of depth. Resting the coffee will allow the CO2 to escape and will result in a richer and more balanced espresso. Once you open the packaging air gets to the coffee and deteriorates quickly. Please only leave the beans in the grinder for one day and grind the coffee fresh for each coffee.
