Coffee Bean Finder | Choose Beans by Brew Method

Short answer: match beans to the drink you want, not only to a roast label. Espresso and milk drinks usually benefit from sweetness, body and enough roast development to stay clear through milk. Filter and French press can showcase lighter fruit, floral or chocolate notes. Moka sits between filter and espresso: medium to medium-dark profiles are a forgiving starting point. Grind fresh for the brewer you use.

Frequently asked questions

Are espresso beans different from regular coffee beans?

“Espresso” usually describes a roast or recipe recommendation. Any coffee can technically be brewed as espresso, but some profiles are easier to dial in.

Should I buy 250g or 1kg?

Choose a size you can use while the coffee remains aromatic. Smaller packs support variety; larger packs can reduce unit cost for frequent use.

Can a blade grinder work?

It can break beans, but a burr grinder gives a more consistent particle size and makes brew adjustments more repeatable.
