The right roast
Medium to darker roasts usually provide more body, crema and consistency in bean-to-cup machines. Very light roasts often need finer adjustment.
2Arabica and Robusta
Arabica brings aroma and finesse, while Robusta provides body, crema and intensity. Many Italian blends deliberately combine both types of bean.
3For home or office
For households, 250 g or 1 kg packs are often enough. In the office, pay attention to consistent availability, the price per kilogram and broad appeal across tastes.
