Can you help me choose a coffee bean variety?
"Could you help me choose a good coffee bean variety for home usage? I'm not a full expert as I'm using Jura s8 expresso machine but still I love great coffee. I need a minimum two types of coffee; One for my wife - can’t be strong or sour and needs to be delicate and good for cappuccino. Second for me - I’m in love with espresso. Coffee can be strong, slightly sour with good crema. We both prefer 100% arabica (not with robusta) with some additional aftertaste (like cocoa etc). Are you able to propose something for our first coffee beans purchase in Australia?"
Hi, thanks for your email.
I am happy to help! The Jura S8 is a great automatic machine and will love and care for your coffee needs - you've made an excellent choice to seek out fresh roasted coffee beans. It sounds to me like your wife will really enjoy Forte (I'll send you the links below). It is a mild to medium coffee with that classic brazil and Colombian flavour profile that brings out some chocolate tones. Mocha Prince steps that chocolate up a little, but does also tend to make the coffee a little more mild, but that could be a good thing here.
For yourself, I have to give you two recommendations - Espresso Master is my favorite for espresso and long black coffee with a perfectly balanced flavour profile. If however, you're looking for something a little more adventurous, you'd have to give Super Crema a go - it really is quite bold and full of flavour, and that crema is really something!
Here are the links to the different varieties - I hope it helps.
