Thank you for drink coffee from sumatera Indonesia. I am one of coffee farmer from sumatera Indonesia. My region is Dataran Tinggi Gayo. Sorry my English is not perfect
hi im new to coffee in fact I roasted my first batch today. I was wondering what a good coffee is for espresso and in particular for lattes. I found that Sumatra coffees are good for espresso any thing would help
Hey there - As you likely know, espresso roasts are darker than your typical coffee roast, so you’ll likely want to find coffees known for bolder, lower toned notes (think chocolate, earthy flavors, caramel, etc.) that will withstand roasting and avoid crisp, acidic flavors (citrus, etc) that will disappear. Sumatra, with its palette of earthy flavors, is a great choice. But I’d also look at Kenyan coffees and Mokha (Yemeni origin that is, not flavored) as origins that commonly exhibit some of these notes. Colombian beans often work in a variety of contexts and can be used as an “all-arounder”. Hope this helps!
I have to disagree with the assessment on starbucks Sumatra. I'm not partial to them at all, in fact I prefer Peet's most of the time, but their Sumatra is the most pleasing one I have had. On a medium/coarse grind through a French press the flavor is ABOUNDING with spice/chocolate with a very slight smokiness to the finish. On the batch we received there was zero oiliness at all. If there WERE oiliness present, that would turn me off to this variety for sure. This is just my take on "Sumatra whole bean" from Starbucks...
