Barista Crema or Barista Crema Forte?

Melitta Barista Crema is the milder choice. Melitta Barista Crema Forte has the same roast level but is full-bodied, with notes of dark chocolate, and Melitta recommends it for caffè crema, caffè latte and americano.

Packaging and producer

The beans are packed under a protective atmosphere. Melitta produces the coffee in Bremen, Germany, with coffee from non-EU countries; the brand goes back to Melitta Bentz, who invented the coffee filter in 1908. The full range is on our Melitta page.
