B 4 - espresso blend - medium roast

This decently rich espresso blend is one of three in our dark roast espresso lineup. Roasted darker than our medium roasted B2 blend and slightly lighter than our dark roasted B1 and B3 blends. It's quite full-bodied, chocolatey and almondy - rounded off by notes of caramel, cinnamon and cocoa. Plus it does have a very mild acidity. Neat or in milk-based drinks, both works perfectly. The B4 is suitable for all types of preparation, from stovetop coffeemakers to portafilter machines to fully automatic espresso machines. Enjoy!

Flavour profile:

Chocolate, dark chocolate, caramel, almond, cocoa, cinnamon. Full-bodied, rich and a very mild accidity.

Brewing advice for a double espresso on portafilter machines:

Coffee grounds: 17 g / 0,63 oz

Water temp: 92 °C / 197,6 °F

Shot time: 28 sec

Beverage weight: 36 g / 1,27 oz

Tip:

Distribute grounds evenly to avoid channeling.

Use filtered water for better results.

Beans should degas 6 days from the roast date.

A further 1 fact on this page was read from part of the shop page that holds no sentence — a menu or a product grid — so there is nothing to quote for it.

Taken from the roaster’s own pages, and nothing here has been verified by us or by an independent body. What we store is a passage of page text cut around the fact, so one shown with an ellipsis is a passage we cannot see the start or the end of; only the fully quoted ones are complete sentences.
