Lazarro Espresso is a medium-roasted blend of Arabica and Robusta, produced in the Netherlands and sold as whole beans in a 1 kg bag. Stopping the roast at medium keeps the natural sweetness of the beans, so the cup tastes of chocolate and nuts and finishes smooth rather than harsh.

The Robusta side supplies the body and a firm, golden-brown crema that holds its own under milk.

What Lazarro Espresso is

Lazarro Espresso is a medium-roasted blend of Arabica and Robusta, produced in the Netherlands and sold as whole beans in a 1 kg bag. The Arabica brings the sweetness and the complexity, the Robusta the body and a firm, golden-brown crema. On our scale the blend sits at 7 out of 13.

How it tastes

Chocolate is the leading note, nuts sit behind it, and the finish is smooth. Because the roast stops at medium, the natural sweetness of the beans survives it and the cup stays rounded instead of turning bitter. Take the same idea darker and you get the Lazarro Espresso Dark Roast: smokier, stronger, less sweet. This one is the more approachable of the two.

In the machine

These beans are meant to work in any espresso machine or bean-to-cup machine, without special settings. Coffee at this price is often roasted quite dark, and dark beans carry more oil on the surface, the sort that gums up a grinder over time. A medium roast keeps that in check, which is worth knowing if your bean-to-cup machine has given you trouble with oily beans before.

With milk

The body stays clearly recognisable under milk, plant-based milk included, and that is mainly the Robusta at work. Cappuccino and latte macchiato keep their coffee flavour rather than turning into warm milk, and the same bag will do a lungo or a jug of filter coffee when you want something longer.

FAQ
Customer Questions
Are Lazarro Espresso coffee beans suitable for a bean to cup machine?

Yes. According to the product data these beans work in every espresso machine and bean to cup coffee machine, without you needing any special settings.

A customer asked us which Lazarro he could choose for his bean to cup machine, because he was worried about oily beans that clog up the grinder. We pointed out that beans in this price range are often a bit darker and therefore oilier. The Lazarro Espresso is medium roasted and so not an extremely dark roast.

What is the difference between Lazarro Espresso and Lazarro Espresso Dark Roast?

The Lazarro Espresso is medium roasted and therefore keeps more of the bean's natural sweetness. You mainly taste chocolate and nuts, with a smooth finish.

The Dark Roast is roasted darker and tastes smokier and stronger, with less sweetness and more bitterness. If you like an approachable espresso, choose this Lazarro Espresso. If you want it really intense, the Dark Roast is the better choice.

Which grind size and dose do you use for Lazarro Espresso beans?

For a classic espresso you use a fine grind size. For a lungo, set the grind size a little coarser or extend the extraction time. Allow around 16 to 20 grams of ground coffee for a double espresso.

If your espresso tastes too bitter, grind a little coarser or let it run through for a shorter time. If it is too sour, grind finer, use a slightly higher dose or set the temperature a bit higher.

Is Lazarro Espresso arabica or robusta and where is the coffee roasted?

Lazarro Espresso is a blend of Arabica and Robusta. The Arabica brings sweetness and complexity, the Robusta provides body and a firm, golden brown crema. The ratio is not stated by the manufacturer.

The coffee is produced in the Netherlands. In our product data this blend is listed at intensity 7 out of 13, so strong, with chocolate as the main flavour note.

Is Lazarro Espresso also suitable for cappuccino and latte macchiato?

Yes. The full body of these espresso beans stays clearly recognisable under milk, including plant based milk. That is mainly down to the Robusta in the blend.

According to the product data this coffee is suitable for espresso, lungo, cappuccino, latte macchiato and filter coffee. If you make cappuccino, a slightly higher dose often tastes better, because otherwise the milk overpowers the coffee.
