Sage states that coffee beans should be no more than one month old after roasting. The fresher the bean, the more aroma and the better the crema. At Café du Jour, coffee beans are never roasted more than four weeks before dispatch, so they always arrive fresh.

Yes, single origin coffee beans work well in a Sage Barista Express or a similar model. They deliver a distinctive flavour profile that varies by origin. Note that single origin beans are sometimes lighter roasted, which can affect the crema and body of your espresso.

A medium to dark roast works well for espresso on a Sage machine. This roast level gives a full body, a rich crema and a balanced flavour. Lightly roasted beans are less suitable for espresso: they produce a more acidic, thinner result.

Not all beans are suitable. Always use unflavoured, uncoated roasted coffee beans. Oily beans can clog the grinder, and light-roasted speciality beans can sometimes be too hard for the grinder in some models.

The E6 is an entry-level model with basic functions. The E8 offers more drink options and finer settings, while the WE8 is suited to heavier use and has a larger bean hopper. All three work well with the same Jura coffee beans, though the E8 and WE8 can extract more from complex blends.

DeLonghi coffee machines work with any whole coffee beans, and they are designed for espresso roasts, so medium to dark roasts tend to perform best. Avoid oily beans as they can clog the grinder. DeLonghi's own beans are tested for compatibility with their machines.

A letterbox coffee gift is a compact parcel that fits through the letterbox and is delivered without anyone needing to be at home. Think of a small bag of coffee beans, a mini taster set, or a coffee gift card. This is handy if you want to surprise someone without knowing when they will be in.

Yes, DeLonghi offers decaffeinated coffee beans in a 250 gram pack. The blend consists of 50 percent Arabica and 50 percent Robusta and is suitable for DeLonghi fully automatic machines. They deliver a full espresso flavour with a strongly reduced caffeine content. Please note: decaffeinated does not mean caffeine free, a small residual amount remains.

An espresso machine uses high pressure to brew a concentrated coffee, typically served in small amounts. A coffee maker lets hot water pass slowly through ground coffee for a milder brew, usually served in larger cups.
