How to choose your coffee?

Robusta or arabica?

Arabica is the most cultivated coffee in the world. It is cultivated in the mountains.
Arabica has fine, varied and pronounced aromas. It is fragrant, sweet and without bitterness.

Robusta is cultivated in the plains.
It is richer in caffeine than arabica, with a more bitter and full-bodied taste.

Ground or grain?

Quickly available, ground coffee is easier to use. But the coffee beans will be fresher, more fragrant and tastier.

Which coffee machine to choose?

No need to go to the local café to have an espresso at home today.
Espresso machines have become available to the general public for an affordable price.
Machines that work with backs and bags cost between 50 and 200 euros.
