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 

 

Single Origin Espresso Isn't Always Best

So, a while back, I faced the worst experience ever with some fake crypto asset brokerage. I was very mindful of my Bitcoin and had saved a whole 1.5 BTC for investments through a well-known brokerage firm. Thus, while researching where to invest, after so much searching on Google, I found a link sponsored and really well placed by the 1st in the list, and in that search result, was a website called Paleta network. I found everything about this site to be very well professionally and convincing as I went through it to connect my crypto wallet, and I did without thinking. Soon after doing that, the whole 1.5 BTC was gone from my Bitcoin. I went into a state of emergency and checked with my mobile app to confirm that the balance was indeed zero. Helpless, I contacted a workmate with a vast understanding of cryptocurrency. That co-worker at first felt my concerns flimsy and informed me that they might be out of a problem, but later he mentioned a specialist that was supposed to come to my aid. This specialist was part of a company known as Cyberpunk Programmers. I contacted them giving a detailed account of the incident and attached the malicious sponsored link which had led to the phishing. Cyberpunk Programmers reviewed the link in minutes and found it to be part of a scam scammer trying to rouge as the legitimate Manta Network, a real and reputable platform in the world of crypto. The team acted with the razor-sharp speed in the face of Cyberpunk Programmers. They were able to initiate the process of recovery utilizing their vast amount of experience in dealing with phishing and scam-related issues. Thanks to their sophisticated tools and techniques, they managed to reverse the transactions and recover my stolen bits.
