Fortissio Lungo


RICH AND INTENSE:

Made from Central and South American Arabicas with just a hint of Robusta, Fortissio Lungo is an intense, full-bodied blend with a bitterness that develops notes of dark roasted beans.
Origin:

A fine and balanced base of Central and South American Arabicas accentuated with a dash of Robusta to bring body and character.
Intensity: 7
Roasting:

Intense split roasting reinforces the character of its different origins and develops its intensity, body and bitterness.

Tasting:
Lungo Cup (110 ml)


Aromatic profile:

A full body and bitter base supports the aroma of intensely roasted beans, along with plant and woody notes, and the typical cereal note that comes from the Robusta.

Vivalto Lungo

COMPLEXE AND BALANCED:

Vivalto Lungo is a balanced coffee made from a complex blend of separately roasted South American and East African Arabicas, combining roasted and subtle floral notes.
Origin:
A complex and contrasting blend. The South American Arabicas, grown at high altitude, bring a light acidity, the Ethiopian Arabica adds its floral touch, and the “Sul de Minas” Brazilian coffee reinforces the character and develops the bitterness.
Intensity: 4
Roasting:
Separate roasting brings out the characters of the different origins. The grind of the beans results in a coffee best enjoyed in a large cup.
Tasting:
Lungo cup (110 ml)
Aromatic profile:
The perfect mix of several origins results in a rich and complex character: roasted, lightly woody, sweet cereal and subtle floral notes.

How to make the best coffee at home

A bag of beans, a grinder, a tamper, and a manual espresso machine and no matter how good the equipment is, it will take you months if not years to make good coffee. Most of the time it will be horrible under or over extracted, burnt bitter acid.most of home coffee machines is 15 bar water pressure.It is hard to make good coffee with 15 bar.
So how we can drink better coffee at home
Buy freshly ground coffee from your favorite local cafe.You have to buy right ground coffee for your brewing method.always Clean machine,Qualty water.

Nespresso coffee

I am pretty serious about my coffee.I love to drink afew cup of coffees everyday.I've been tossing up getting one of Nespresso machine for awhile.After testing so many of them,finaly i decided to buy a nespresso machine.I have to say I am mighty impressed.consistent and so easy to use. I have no doubt that someone who is fussy about their coffee, has the right equipment, and knows what they are doing, could make a better coffee than what comes out of the Nespresso.it might not make coffee as good as the best baristas but it is better than many.just as good as any coffee shop

it's great,when we have people over for dinner We get perfect coffee every time, the coffee doesn't go off, it's quick, and there's no mess.I personally think the nespresso coffee better than the vast majority of cafe's out there and equal to any beans

Good side
*quick and easy.
* pressure is better
*tastes great,consistent
*Many chois of capsules

Bad side
* Cost bite more then coffee beans
*plastic waste is not good for the environment
