Superbar is the more refined take on Caffè Hausbrandt's original espresso blend: the same full body, with the acidity turned down to a light thread running underneath it. It is made for espresso, and it suits a semi-automatic machine with a portafilter as well as a fully automatic bean-to-cup machine. It comes as 1 kg of whole beans. If you already drink the original Hausbrandt, this is the same character with the edges smoothed off.

Details

Caffè Hausbrandt Superbar is an espresso blend in whole bean form, sold here in a 1 kg bag. It is the more refined version of the original Hausbrandt espresso blend: the body stays full, while the acidity is pulled back to a subtle note rather than a sharp one.

In the cup

The body is what you notice first, full and rounded, with the acidity sitting behind it as a lift rather than an edge. It reads as 8 out of 13 on the Café du Jour strength scale, so it is firmly on the strong side without tipping over into bitterness. That balance is what makes it a bar blend, the kind of espresso handed across the counter in an Italian coffee bar and drunk in two mouthfuls.

Which machine

Superbar is at home in a semi-automatic machine with a portafilter, where you set the dose and the grind yourself. It performs just as well in a fully automatic bean-to-cup machine, which grinds and brews in one movement, so you do not have to choose your coffee around your equipment.

FAQ
Customer Questions
What flavour and blend does the Caffè Hausbrandt Superbar have?

The Superbar is an Italian blend of arabica and robusta beans with a medium roast and an intensity of 8 out of 13, classed by us as strong. We describe it as the slightly finer version of the original Hausbrandt espresso blend: a full body with a slightly noticeable acidity. In the taste you recognise chocolate and nutty notes.

Is the Caffè Hausbrandt Superbar suitable for a bean-to-cup machine or a portafilter machine?

Both are possible. We think the Superbar is exceptionally well suited to a semi-automatic machine with a portafilter, but it certainly does not look out of place in a bean-to-cup machine. These are whole beans with a medium roast, so not an extremely dark, oily bean that the grinder of a bean-to-cup machine can struggle with. Just keep the bean hopper and the brew group clean according to your machine's manual.

Where does the Caffè Hausbrandt Superbar come from?

Hausbrandt is a coffee roaster from Trieste in Italy and has been making typically Italian blends there since 1892. The Superbar is roasted in Italy. The green beans in this blend come from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia and India.

Can I grind the Hausbrandt Superbar beans myself for filter coffee or espresso?

Yes, you receive 1 kilo of whole beans, so you decide on the grind size yourself. For an espresso machine you grind fine (espresso grind), for a pour-over filter or a filter coffee maker you use a filter grind and for a percolator a coarser percolator grind. Filter grind and percolator grind are not interchangeable. With a bean to cup machine you do not have to do anything: it grinds the beans itself.

What is the best way to store the Caffè Hausbrandt Superbar coffee beans?

Store the bag cool, dark and well sealed, for example in a kitchen cupboard and not in the fridge. Unopened, roasted coffee stays good for about a year; it tastes best within about three months. Once you have opened the bag of 1 kilo, close it properly every time, because oxygen is the greatest enemy of the aroma.
