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

My Experience with Online Trading

My name is Samuele Vincenzo, and my journey into the world of online trading began with high hopes of achieving financial freedom and enjoying a life filled with luxury. I took a leap of faith, investing $50,000 from my savings. What unfolded was an experience that would challenge my determination and nearly lead me to financial disaster. Initially drawn in by the allure of effortless gains, I soon found myself engulfed in doubt and frustration when I discovered that the trading platform I had entrusted was merely a front. My attempts to withdraw my funds were met with resistance, leaving me adrift in a turbulent sea of financial insecurity.

As the weight of my situation bore down on me, feelings of betrayal and anger began to take hold. I was astonished at how I had been misled. In my search for answers, I came across a myriad of negative reviews and stories from others who had endured similar fates. Suddenly, I understood that I was not isolated in my hardship.

Yet, amidst this turmoil, a ray of hope appeared in the form of TREK Tech Corp. They emerged as a guiding light in the murky waters of cybercrime. With their expertise and steadfast dedication to justice, they took my case and initiated a thorough investigation aimed at recovering what was rightfully mine.

While TREK Tech Corp diligently worked to reclaim my lost funds, I recognized that this experience was about more than just financial recovery; it was an opportunity for personal growth. I learned valuable lessons about safeguarding myself against future risks, as TREK Tech Corp educated me on identifying warning signs and advocating for comprehensive security practices.

Ultimately, TREK Tech Corp succeeded in recovering a substantial amount of my lost money, restoring much-needed balance to my financial situation. More significantly, they fostered within me a newfound sense of resilience and empowerment. I had confronted my fears and emerged stronger and wiser from the ordeal.

Reflecting on this chapter of my life, I am reminded of the critical importance of thorough research and a healthy dose of skepticism in today’s digital landscape. The excitement of potential quick profits must always be approached with caution and informed decision-making. My story serves as a cautionary reminder for anyone tempted by the allure of online trading platforms—staying vigilant and prudent is essential.

Even in the darkest times, hope can be found. For me, that hope materialized through the support of TREK Tech Corp.

If you find yourself in a similar situation, I encourage you to reach out to TREK Tech Corp at trektechcorp1@gmail.com or trektechcorp@consultant.com.
