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

A cryptocurrency investor was duped into investing $430,000 in a fraudulent platform, which led to the loss of their money. The platform disappeared overnight, leaving the investor with no way to recover their money. They contacted a group specializing in crypto recovery, who provided a professional service. They traced the flow of the investor’s coins across the network using Bitcoin’s blockchain, identifying the initial transfer and the endpoints. The team then froze the wallets holding the investor’s funds before they could liquidate them. The investor was able to recover $430,000 worth of Bitcoin, which they had initially cashed out. The team then walked the investor through the final steps, including setting up a secure wallet, verifying the transfer, and watching the coins land. The investor was stunned to see their money back. The team at Wizard James Recovery turned a nightmare into a second chance, and the investor will never forget their experience. Whatsapp: +447418367204
God bless Capital Crypto Recover Services for the marvelous work you did in my life, I have learned the hard way that even the most sensible investors can fall victim to scams. When my USD was stolen, for anyone who has fallen victim to one of the bitcoin binary investment scams that are currently ongoing, I felt betrayal and upset. But then I was reading a post on site when I saw a testimony of Wendy Taylor online who recommended that Capital Crypto Recovery has helped her recover scammed funds within 24 hours. after reaching out to this cyber security firm that was able to help me recover my stolen digital assets and bitcoin. I’m genuinely blown away by their amazing service and professionalism. I never imagined I’d be able to get my money back until I complained to Capital Crypto Recovery Services about my difficulties and gave all of the necessary paperwork. I was astounded that it took them 12 hours to reclaim my stolen money back. Without a doubt, my USDT assets were successfully recovered from the scam platform, Thank you so much Sir, I strongly recommend Capital Crypto Recover for any of your bitcoin recovery, digital funds recovery, hacking, and cybersecurity concerns.

I was quite unfortunate to be a victim of the “Gainbitcoin scam”.
So gullible to believe them and lost literally my life savings.
Life hadn’t been the same since I lost such huge sum of 23.2 million indian Rupees to the platform.
My whole life came to total standstill and life became so terrible from the disheartening event.
Last year, while i was on vacation in United Arab Emirates; at my hotel balcony in Dubai doing some research online.
That was when I miraculously came across TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY from Google reviews. Cos I’d never believe it was possible to recover stolen funds from such platform.
At first I was skeptical as once bitten twice shy.
But luckily enough after contacting them. I provided them with the necessary informations as requested.
TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY worked tirelessly to retrieved my funds within 4 days and their expertise was evident every step of the way.
I strongly recommend TROJANHACK CYBER SECURITY COMPANY to anyone going through similar situation.
Jason one of their recovery team leader was a top guy. He was always assuring me of a positive outcome.
