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

Hello my name is Martin I first heard about Bitcoin back in 2019 through a classmate who was deep into cryptocurrency trading. At the time, I didn’t know much about Bitcoin or how it worked, but my curiosity got the better of me. After some research, I decided to take the plunge and make a small investment. I didn’t expect much at first, but as time passed, I watched in amazement as my initial investment steadily grew, eventually turning into an impressive $300,000. I was thrilled, to say the least.
However, earlier this year, I experienced a moment of panic. After attending a lively college party, I realized that my phone was missing. I had no idea where I had left it, but between the chaos and excitement of the party, it must have gotten misplaced. Losing my phone was bad enough, but what really scared me was the fact that my two-factor authentication for my Bitcoin wallet was linked to that phone. Worse still, I hadn’t properly stored any backup codes, leaving me completely locked out of my wallet. The thought of losing all that money was terrifying.
At that moment, I didn’t know what to do. I was overwhelmed and desperate to regain access to my funds. Luckily, a close friend who had gone through a similar situation recommended MALICE CYBER RECOVERY to me. I wasn’t sure if they could help, but I was willing to try anything at that point. So, I reached out to them with the hope that they could somehow help me recover access to my wallet.
To my absolute relief, MALICE CYBER RECOVERY didn’t disappoint. Their team was professional and efficient, and they assured me that even though I didn’t have my phone or the backup codes, they could still recover my wallet. After just a few weeks of working with them, they managed to restore my access completely, and my $300,000 was safe and sound. I couldn’t believe how smoothly the whole process went.
If you’re a student like me or anyone else who has lost their phone during a night out or a party, don’t lose hope. MALICE CYBER RECOVERY has the expertise to help you recover your funds, even in what seems like a hopeless situation. I’m incredibly grateful for their service and would highly recommend them to anyone facing a similar crisis.reach out to MALICE CYBER RECOVERY VIA
