FAQ Search Results

Is light roast always more acidic?
Light roast has a higher acidity. That’s what gives it those fresh and fruity flavours many coffee lovers enjoy.
What works best for espresso?
Medium and dark roast usually work best for espresso. They’re better balanced and deliver a fuller flavour, especially when combined with milk.
Is single origin coffee better than a blend?
Single origin coffee often has a more distinct flavour, while a blend is more balanced. Which is better depends on your personal preference.
Is single origin coffee stronger?
Strength depends more on the roast and brewing method. Single origin can taste more intense due to its pronounced flavour notes.
Why do roasters choose blends?
With blends, roasters can create a consistent flavour. This ensures your coffee tastes the same every time, regardless of the season.
Are blends lower quality?
A good blend is carefully crafted and requires a lot of skill from the roaster to achieve the right balance.
Can I use both in an espresso machine?
Blends are generally more forgiving, but with the right settings, you can also make excellent espresso using single origin beans.
Which vodka works best for an espresso martini?
A smooth, neutral vodka works best. Premium brands give the cocktail an even softer and more refined taste.
Can I make an espresso martini without a shaker?
Yes, but a shaker creates the signature foam layer. If you don’t have one, use a well-sealed jar or bottle and shake it vigorously.
How do I get a nice thick foam layer?
By shaking firmly with plenty of ice. The harder you shake, the creamier and thicker the foam becomes.
Can I make an espresso martini without alcohol?
Use decaffeinated espresso and replace the vodka and coffee liqueur with a mix of sugar syrup, cold coffee and optionally a splash of coffee syrup.
How far in advance can I prepare an espresso martini?
You can mix the ingredients ahead of time, but always shake the cocktail just before serving. That way it stays cold and gets that lovely foam layer.
Is coffee grounds good for houseplants?
Yes, but use small amounts and mix it well into the potting soil.
How often can you use coffee grounds?
About once every couple of weeks is enough.
Do coffee grounds really make soil more acidic?
Used coffee grounds are slightly acidic, but they usually don’t strongly acidify the soil when used normally.
