Basic Bean I
nfo
There is no such thing as an espr
esso r
o
ast. There is no such thing as an e
spresso
b
ean.
The beans used for
brewing espresso can be
a blend
o
r a single
-
origin
coffee
that has
good flavor characteristics for
e
spresso.
Some people l
ike a dark roast and others like a light or medium roast.
The color of the
roasted beans has nothing to do with the brewing equipment used. A dark roast coffee can
be used for drip or espresso but what will make it taste good is the blend of beans used.
The blend used for
e
spresso will be different than the blen
d from
d
rip
coffee
.
Arabica and Robusta Beans
Arabica
Arabica is grown at higher elevations and is more expensive since it is harder to
cultivate
.
It is generally agreed that the Arabica is the higher quality bean.
Robusta
Robusta is grown at the lower
elevations and is a bean with
higher acidity. Some roasters
may add in
some Robusta beans to give the e
spresso an edge so that it brew
s well for
milk
-
based drinks. The Robusta may also be used to help give the coffee a thicker crema.
Steaming and Frothi
ng
There is a difference between steamed and frothed milk. Steamed milk is milk heated
with steam from a steam wand. Frothed milk is also heated but air is injected into the
milk to create froth. Different techniques can be used to create
either a creamy o
r
foamy
froth. Low
-
fat milk froths easier and creates a more airy froth. Milk with a higher fat
content requires more technique to create froth and will create a creamier and sweeter
froth.
