The Trouble with Single Origin Espresso
Single varietal espresso is sometimes good, but it is not always the best way to present a coffee or enjoy an espresso. I prefer an espresso in which the acidity and brightness are balanced by a depth of body often not found in light roast single origin offerings.
And while this is true when drinking a double shot of espresso straight, it can become more important as part of a latte drink, where light roasts can lack a boldness or backbone to shine through the milk.
Roasting a good espresso to be balanced and subtle at the same time is not necessarily a one-bean-fits-all proposition.
When it comes to roasting coffee beans for espresso, my philosophy is balance. The issue with many single origin espressos is that they are not roasted to be balanced, but to be extraordinary in some way. They succeed in being tart and tangy, but are left without enough body to balance out the bright notes of the coffee.
If I were to use a beer analogy, its like a pale ale that is a little hoppy but drinks smoothly, versus one that is really hoppy and sharp on the palate. That's the kind of flavor difference we are talking about with espresso too.
While I do have a few single origin coffees that make an excellent espresso shot (the Organic Ethiopia Natural Hambela, for example) usually that's a secondary consideration for me, and a bonus of the varietal! Most of the time, I roast coffee for coffee and espresso for espresso. My espresso roast profiles are formulated specifically for an espresso extraction. The result is a balanced yet nuanced cup.
If you enjoy espresso, try one of our blends especially roasted to bring out the best in your brew:
Trianon Espresso (Classic cafe favorite since 1985!)
Organic Espresso
Decaf Espresso

As a senior manager at a well-respected investment firm in the UK, I always prided myself on my financial acumen and ability to navigate complex markets. However, my recent experience with a cryptocurrency scam has taught me a harsh lesson about vulnerability and the importance of vigilance in the digital age. My foray into cryptocurrency began innocently enough. Intrigued by the buzz surrounding digital currencies and the potential for high returns, I found myself drawn into this new investment landscape. Initially, I approached it with curiosity, eager to explore the opportunities that lay ahead. However, as I became more involved, I was blinded by a mix of greed and the belief that I could outsmart the system. Over the course of six months, I invested my life savings of £400,000 into what I thought were promising ventures. The scammers behind this elaborate scheme were incredibly sophisticated. They created a façade of legitimacy, complete with professional-looking websites, fake testimonials, and even impersonated reputable financial advisors. I was lulled into a false sense of security, convinced that my investments were safe and growing. It wasn’t until I attempted to withdraw my funds that the reality of the situation hit me like a ton of bricks. The promised returns evaporated, and the scammers vanished without a trace. I felt a profound sense of betrayal and regret. How could I have let myself be deceived? It was a painful realization that even someone with my background could fall victim to such a well-orchestrated scam. In my search for answers and recovery, I came across TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL, a firm dedicated to helping victims of online fraud. Their expertise and commitment to assisting individuals like me provided a glimmer of hope in an otherwise bleak situation. With their guidance, I embarked on a journey to recover my lost funds. The team at TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL worked diligently, employing their resources and knowledge to trace the funds and navigate the complexities of the recovery process. To my immense relief, they successfully recovered my entire investment. I have become an advocate for financial literacy, urging others to educate themselves about the risks associated with digital investments and to seek help from TECHY FORCE CYBER RETRIEVAL if they have fallen victim. While I am grateful for the recovery of my funds, I hope my story serves as a cautionary tale. The world of cryptocurrency is fraught with risks, and it is essential to approach it with caution, awareness, and a healthy dose of skepticism.

I lost $120,000 in a USDT investment scam. Someone I met online gained my trust over time and convinced me to invest on a trading platform that looked completely legitimate. When I tried to withdraw my money, the platform vanished overnight. My account was locked, and I was left devastated. Local authorities told me nothing could be done because crypto transactions are anonymous.
I almost gave up until I found 5ISPYHAK. Their team explained that while crypto is pseudonymous, every transaction leaves a permanent trail on the blockchain. They started tracing my USDT immediately as the scammers moved it through multiple wallets trying to hide it. The team tracked every transaction and discovered my funds were still sitting in specific wallets that had not been cashed out.
They compiled evidence and worked with law enforcement to contact Tether, the company that issues USDT. Because Tether has the power to freeze assets, they froze the fraudulent wallets containing my funds. Through the legal process, my full $120,000 was recovered and returned to me.
If you have been scammed, contact them immediately. Time is critical.

I’m really delighted i eventually found a real & competent hacker i followed their Bogus recommendations. Never knew that my Husband had a son out of wedlock without informing me about it for almost 15 years of our marriage, until i noticed he picks strange calls on his Iphone and send some money to a strange woman. As much as it is inappropriate to spy on one’s spouse phone, it’s also necessary to be sure that your relationship is in perfect shape. All my gratitude goes to this Genius Hacker who got to hack his phone completely to the extent that i had a clone of his phone and could read all his whats-app & Facebook messages, call logs, text messages, and GPS to know where and what he is always up to. I’m really grateful for this great experience, It really helped me find out the truth about my marriage.
