FAQ

 

Is Super Crema too oily for my super-automatic machine?

No—this is a medium roast that most super-automatics handle very well when the grinder and brew unit are properly maintained.

Is the taste more strong or smooth?

Smooth and balanced. Low acidity, restrained bitterness, and lots of crema make it very approachable.

Can I brew it for drip/filter?

It’s formulated for espresso. You can brew it as filter for a round, low-acid cup, but its sweet spot is espresso or moka.

Will it work in my machine (Jura/De’Longhi/Philips/Breville)?

Yes. It’s a popular, forgiving blend that’s easy to dial in across brands.

What size is the bag?

1 kg whole beans with a freshness valve.
