ENGLISHImportant to know……1. The taste of your coffee depends on thecharacteristics of the beans from which itis made, the type of bean, where it wasgrown and processed. The coffee beansthat are roasted for a longer period of timeand at higher temperatures will be muchdarker in colour.Darker beans will producea richer cup of coffee than the lightly-roastedbeans.2. A variety of dark roasts are available fromwhich you can choose to brew your espres-so. Each of these roasts is a blend of coffeebeans that are roasted at a specific tempe-rature producing a specific type of flavour.There are decaffeinated beans that haveup to 98% of the caffeine content removed.The next time you purchase coffee for yourespresso maker, experiment with one of themany kinds of coffee being sold. You mayjust find that it tastes better than the blendyou have been using.3. A fine “espresso grind” for pump-drivenmachines must be used.
