My espresso tastes better than yours. What beans do you use?

BobbyV's picture

Fara breakfast blend! How about you??

Is that an espresso bean? I use a local company. Idk if you have one around but "the human bean" uses a real good bean they sell by the pound if you ask

BobbyV's picture

There is no difference between coffee beans and "espresso beans", both are the same bean. The difference is espresso beans are roasted darker.

You can use any bean you like, and grind it up, and have espresso. All that matters is the pressure at that point.

We do have Human Bean! Love them.

My understanding is they're roasted in a way to better handle the pressure and heat of the espresso extraction. As long as we are both happy -- is all that matters

I'll look into it! Honestly just had to ask the wife lol, she ran an espresso shop for years.

Forsure brotha! Happy and caffeinated lol

Shrimp and turkey, never thought of that. It’s almost like a gumbo.

Yeah! The turkey cooks up a lot like ground beef especially with the sauce.

It smells really good, and a quick taste tester had me happy!
