Coffee varieties
The choice of the blend is an essential
factor for making the ideal coffee for
your taste. There are a lot of different
varieties of coffee blends on the mar-
ket to choose from. The differences in
avour, aroma and texture depend on
the quantities of the two varieties of
coffee that make the blend.
Arabica
This is a sweeter and more delicate
variety of coffee, with a rich aroma
and cream that is very thin, dense and
compact.
Robusta
This variety is woody, bitter, full-
bodied and spicy, with little aroma.
Its cream is more frothier and greyer.
It is grown between 200/600 m
Spicy aroma.
Caffeine between 1.8 ~ 4%
No variety of coffee can make an ideal
Espresso on its own. The perfect Es-
presso has a top layer of cream 2-3
mm thick, a colour that varies from nut
brown to dark brown, with reddish ting-
es and light streaks, a harmonious a-
vour, a strong, balanced aroma and a
sweet, long-lasting aftertaste. It has a
strong aroma with notes of owers,
fruits, toast and chocolate.
These sensations can last just a mo-
ment or can persist for a few minutes
in your mouth. The taste is round and
well structured.
Arabica
It is grown between 900/2000 m
Rich aroma.
Caffeine between 0.9 ~ 1.7%
4 - Manualità (Skill)
Half of the result depends on how you
use the machine. A passionate expert
is an essential part of the Espresso
production chain and can enhance the
result to bring additional value to the
nal product. Therefore, passion and
practice are the secrets to learning
how to use the machine. You can ex-
periment with different blends of cof-
fee, grinding, pressing, water temper-
ature and pressure, not just to make
an Espresso, but to make the one that
is right for you.
5 - Manutenzione (Maintenance)
Daily maintenance, scheduled main-
tenance and care of the machine will
ensure the quality of the beverage and
the durability of the product you have
purchased. A clean machine says a lot
about your passion for making coffee.
