Choose Your Type of Coffee Bean 

When it comes to the best coffee beans for ground coffee or liquid roast coffee, there are two main types: Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans are known for their smooth, complex flavour profile with hints of sweetness and acidity. They are often considered the superior choice for premium coffee beans. On the other hand, Robusta beans are robust and strong, with a slightly bitter taste. They are often used in espresso blends for their rich crema and intense flavour. 

 

Pick Your Roast Profile 

The roast profile of coffee beans significantly impacts the flavour. Light roasts retain most of the beans' original characteristics, offering bright and acidic notes. Medium roasts provide a balanced flavour with a bit more body and sweetness. Dark roasts, which include espresso roasts, have a bold, intense flavour with pronounced bitterness and a smoky finish. Choosing the right roast profile depends on your personal preference and brewing method. 

 

Decide Between Single-Origin and Coffee Blends 

Single-origin premium coffee beans come from one specific region or even a single farm, offering unique flavours that reflect their geographic origin. These beans are perfect for those who appreciate distinct taste profiles and want to explore different coffee-growing regions. On the other hand, coffee blends for filter coffee or coffee pods combine beans from various regions to create a balanced and consistent flavour.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to Grind Coffee Beans? +

To grind coffee beans, you will need a coffee grinder. There are two main types: blade grinders and burr grinders. Blade grinders are less expensive but can produce uneven grinds. Burr grinders, on the other hand, offer a more consistent grind size, which is crucial for brewing a great cup of coffee.  

How Long Do Coffee Beans Last? +

Coffee beans can last several months if stored properly. For optimal freshness, use them within two to four weeks of roasting. Once opened, try to use the beans within a month. To preserve their flavour, store your coffee beans in an airtight container in a cool, dark place. 

How to Store Coffee Beans? +

Store coffee beans in an airtight container away from light, heat, and moisture. A dark, cool pantry is ideal. Avoid transparent containers, as exposure to light can degrade the beans. If you buy coffee beans online in bulk, consider dividing them into smaller portions and storing them in separate containers to minimize exposure to air each time you open a container.

Where Do Coffee Beans Come From? +

Coffee beans are grown in the “coffee belt”, which includes regions around the equator such as Central and South America, Africa, and Asia. The specific origin of coffee beans greatly influences their flavour profile.
