(Gran Crema Espresso, 1kg) - Lavazza L'Espresso Gran Crema Whole Bean Coffee Blend, Medium Espresso Roast, 1kg Bag

رائع

I've been using these Lavazza Barista Gran Crema beans for about two months now in my Breville Barista Express and I'm honestly impressed. I've tried probably a dozen different espresso beans over the past year and these are the ones I keep coming back to. The crema is ridiculous. Like, thick and persistent. Way more than I was getting with Illy or the local roaster beans I was using before. It sits on top of the shot with that tiger striping and actually lasts instead of disappearing in 30 seconds. Makes a huge difference when I'm making lattes because the milk integrates better. Flavor-wise, it's not overly acidic or bright like some lighter roasts. I definitely taste the dark chocolate notes they mention, and there's a slight sweetness that I'm guessing is the honey they're talking about. There's also this subtle spice thing happening that's hard to describe but works really well. It's a medium roast but drinks like a darker one, which I prefer for espresso. The Arabica and Robusta blend seems to be doing something right. I've read that Robusta adds body and crema, and I can tell. The shots are full and thick, not watery at all. When I add milk for cappuccinos or lattes, it stays silky and doesn't get thin or bitter. The 2.2 pound bag is a good size. It lasts me about three weeks with two shots a day. I keep the beans in an airtight container and they stay fresh pretty much until the bag is empty. No noticeable drop-off in quality toward the end. Grinding these is easy. They're not super oily like some dark roasts, so they don't gum up my grinder. I usually grind pretty fine for espresso and the consistency is even. I've also tried these in my French press on a lazy Sunday morning and they work fine there too, though they're definitely optimized for espresso. The flavor is a bit intense for drip coffee in my opinion, but if you like strong coffee it could work. Price point is solid. Way cheaper than buying beans from a specialty coffee shop and honestly better results than some of the boutique stuff I've paid double for. Only thing I'd mention is the intensity is rated 7 out of 10, which feels about right. If you like super light, fruity, acidic espresso, this isn't that. It's bold and chocolatey and meant for classic Italian-style espresso drinks. If you have an espresso machine at home and want consistent, high-quality beans that produce great crema and taste good in milk drinks, just get these. I've stopped experimenting with other brands because these do exactly what I need them to do.

Muy buena compra. Compré este Lavazza Espresso Barista Gran Crema para usarlo en mi máquina Breville y la verdad me encantó. Los lattes salen con muchísima crema y un sabor muy rico, nada ácido. Se siente un café bien balanceado y fácil de disfrutar en casa. Llegó bien empacado y sin problema. Sin duda lo volvería a comprar.
