    I don't understand why most modern "specialty coffee" drinkers are hating on the robusta bean. Yes, it haves a mean, intense flavor, but not always it haves to be bad. If the farmer knows how to take care of it, and the roaster knows how to handle it, I know that the end result in the hands of a good barista can be surprisingly good! :)

    • @1timby
      @1timby 8 років тому

      It might be because not all folks like the bitterness of the resulting brew. I for one don't drink espressos for that very reason. If it's OK for you then who really cares about what others think. Just like me not wanting espresso. To each their own.

    • @gabrielgvs0619
      @gabrielgvs0619 8 років тому

      1timby If nothing else, what others think matters most when people seek out opinions for new roasts/beans to try. In this sense, a lot of people who may have otherwise enjoyed a nice robusta might never even try it for all the negative opinions.

    • @PleasurableDemise
      @PleasurableDemise 8 років тому

      This is very true. There is that strong reputation regarding arabica coffee and how it is superior to robusta. Though, robusta can be just as good if grown and roasted properly. Take someone to a Vietnamese cafe, see how much they love the coffee, and then kill them by saying it was robusta.

      Try different varieties and different roasts of each, you'll be surprised at the flavours awaiting you. When I get a new bean I do at least 2 small batches, one a light roast and one a medium to dark and try each then roast the batch according to my flavour preference, the one I'm drinking right now gives me the best flavour on a light roast but others I prefer dark roast, each is very different in the cup and each has a sweet spot regarding roast colour.

  • @gabrielgvs0619
    @gabrielgvs0619 8 років тому +1

    Nice work here! I would only add that in my personal experience, one factor which really affects espresso brewing is the freshness of the beans as determined by the date of use from the date of roast.

    Amber, thank you. I guess what it extracts ;-) down to is if it tastes good to you. I must admit I was hoping for a way to determine if a coffee would taste good based on something in the description. I like to order coffee from different places and hoped to avoid those that don't work for me, but then I'll miss some gems. I even found a great coffee from Whitehorse in the Yukon. Go figure! I guess it enjoying coffee is like life. It's a journey.

      I'm with you, and if you haven't tried them you might look up Red Bird's espresso roast. It's what their company is calling a classic "Northern Italian" roast. I like the modern take as well but for me variety is always nice.

    • @SimonLeeds
      @SimonLeeds 8 років тому

      I think lots of hipster kids who didn't like old school coffee like the bright flavours. I'd say 50% of roasters I know are under 30. Kids don't like olives and dark chocolate right? That's my thinking behind this craze.

    Ok this is my deal i buy Cafe Bustelo, but I make it in a regular coffee maker that uses the drip method. This still has so so so much more caffeine than regular coffee. I just wanted to know why it has more caffeine. The only thing I can gather from this video is it is grounded up more.

      katia alami Yes, espresso is the extraction method, any bean in an espresso machine extracted to cup is an espresso in the same way that same bean in a french press is french press coffee etc, I note in America names are preferred which I think is why you get espresso roast, drip roast etc rather than light roast, mid roast dark roast?
