Gina caffè crema - coffee beans - 1 KG

That is possible, but pay close attention to the grind size. We know from our customer service that a grind that is too fine gets stuck in a filter machine, which makes the filter overflow and leaves grit in the jug or the cup. If you grind too coarse, the coffee becomes weak instead. For a filter machine, use a filter grind and increase the dose to about 5 to 8 grams per cup rather than grinding finer. These beans are at their best in a semi-automatic or bean-to-cup machine.

Yes. These are whole coffee beans with a medium roast, suitable for both semi-automatic and bean-to-cup coffee machines. A medium-roasted bean is less oily than a dark roast, and bean-to-cup machines from Jura and Melitta, for instance, are sensitive to oily beans. You simply pour the beans into the bean hopper; there is no need to grind them, as your machine does that itself.

The Gina caffè crema has a full layer of crema. We describe the taste as chocolatey and nutty, with a medium roast and a firm intensity. These are arabica beans from Brazil; the coffee is produced in Austria. Besides caffè crema and espresso, this blend also lends itself well to cappuccino.

Seal the 1 kilo bag well after every use and store it cool, dark and dry, for example in a kitchen cupboard. We advise against the fridge, because coffee absorbs moisture and odours there. Unopened, roasted coffee keeps for about a year; the aroma is at its best within about three months. Do not fill the bean hopper of your machine with more than you use up in a few days.
