Favorite roast is medium/dark roast. great for espresso and any other method, for me it's the perfect balance between tasting the impact of the roasting and the original taste of the bean
I wish you explain the actual technical difference between the espresso and regular beans. Are there differences in roasting process? Can you convert a regular bean to espresso beans by roasting it further at certain temperature and time?
The only difference is the brewing method. Any roasted coffee beans, light or dark, could be used with the espresso method, or any brewing method. Whether they taste good or not is a different story.
What if you told me that they are not the same thing? I would say that you are wrong. While "espresso beans" may be more suitable for espresso, it's just subjective because you can use any beans to make any type of coffee.
Great job on this video! Very thorough. However the trend these days is to use lighter roasted beans in the espresso method. I don’t like the trend at all but people seem to be loving it. The new thing they say is you can use any bean to brew espresso. Classic dark roasts are always going to be better in espresso (IMO).
Can you use espresso beans to make regular coffee in a filter machine. Because espresso beans tend to have more caffein because of the arabica/robusta mix.
From the beginning of the video I thought there are light beans, medium and dark, and darker are better for espresso. But then says don’t use regular old beans for espresso because some too light and some too dark so make sure to use espresso. Sooooooo there are ‘regular beans’ and ‘espresso’ beans???
So if i go to the store do i need to buy a coffee that specifically says espresso coffee for the espresso machine or can i just buy any coffee i just got my machine and before that i would just buy regular black coffee usually a strong one that's a darker roast but im not sure if i can use that one for the machine if anyone can answer and help id be very grateful?
Generally supermarket coffee is all espresso. If you are buying from a roaster then yes chose for espresso. Your beans sound like they are roasted for espresso anyway. Nobody refers to coffee for as regular coffee btw. It is filter or espresso
Also, if you buy freshly roasted beans from your local roaster, you'll have a much better outcome over supermarket coffee. And that's because the supermarket coffee may be six months to one year old. This will result in a flat or not very tasty shot of espresso. But if you buy fresh coffee from a local roaster, it'll give you a better extraction, with thicker crema and a much better tasting shot of espresso.
My friend swears you can take regular coffee beans and make espresso and that there is no such thing as espresso beans because its all just regular coffee beans, and in order to make espresso with it you just use a large amount of it. And apparently this is how you make lattes.... with regular coffee beans....
Thanks for your comments. Maybe roasting a regular dark roast bean longer in an oven may produce an ideal espresso bean. I'm still fooling around with it.
the idea is that of you want to achieve the best possible extraction using very little water, you want to go with darker roasts. Lighter beans however will need more water in the brewing method.
I believe that oily beans are an indication of beans that have been roasted too long... the chemical reaction in the bean causes the lipids to come out to the surface immediately. They can also be an indication of beans that have not been properly stored... just because some beans are more suitable for espresso doesn't mean that they have to be oily... Italian coffee shops use dark roasted coffee beans that include robusta beans not just arabica and definitely not follow our North American obsession with "single origin coffee."
few information in this video is misleading....all roast of coffee can be used as espresso, yes espresso roast is like dark roast , crema is the worst tasting part of the coffee came from the oil and fine particle from your puck. you can extract espresso with almost no crema or alot of crema....but what do I know I don't have a coffee bean channel. but really now a days coffee drinkers want to be able to taste the fruit and floral notes in the coffee so many prefer to use light roast for espresso as well, first crack to second crack is just as qualify for espresso use. so really espresso coffee bean is still coffee bean, only difference now a days is really prep medthod, drip/ pour/ extract, which ever suits the person.... in the end when they reference espresso beans...you're really talking about espresso roast on coffee beans
@@vatossureno Of course you can because the truth is that whether the beans are labelled as "espresso" or just "coffee" is just the roasters recommendation. I rarely use "espresso" beans to make my espresso.
Why are coffee beans called beans if they are the pip of a fruit? Because I'm obviously asleep on acid and I'm not jesus or satans son and its obvious that a bean is actually a bean and my mind is telling tall tales because it hasn't got a clue...

Thank you so much for this very informative video! :)
Great video, is it right to say they’re better for high pressure and temp because of the varietal of bean they start as?
What if you told me that they are not the same thing? I would say that you are wrong. While "espresso beans" may be more suitable for espresso, it's just subjective because you can use any beans to make any type of coffee.

@@vatossureno absolutely, for me if I like a certain blend as espresso, I always enjoy it as drip coffee too.
Not very clear. Is the difference between espresso and regular coffee the roasting of the beans to dark roast, or are they different beans?
Espresso is a brew method. Not a bean or a roast level. Any bean can be roasted at any level and brewed as an espresso. Figure it out.
What coffee bean roast would be best for a French press?
soo, can I roast my reg coffee beans 🫘 in the airfrying oven (it has roast setting as well) and expect them to be of espresso bean quality ?
Can espresso beans be used in a French press for Americano

I wish u guys were still making videos
You mean to say Dark roast good for espresso beans, like cappuccino, Latte??
Light roast good for another black coffee bean's like pour over etc??
So if i go to the store do i need to buy a coffee that specifically says espresso coffee for the espresso machine or can i just buy any coffee i just got my machine and before that i would just buy regular black coffee usually a strong one that's a darker roast but im not sure if i can use that one for the machine if anyone can answer and help id be very grateful?

Dark Roast - Cream, no sugar; strong and smooth

It's not rocket science, .... it's 5 minutes of how good coffee is served.

@@vatossureno, yes! Yes, you can. And also the other way around.
Does it still count if I smash the like button vs. hit the like button? 😂😂
Ok bro thnx
Would these espresso beans be ok for moka pot?
I believe so!
Yes.
Sumatra my favorite Origin coffee
Can't believe you don't know the difference between beans and roast level.
Hey guys, thats a good aproximation to instruct us! Great! Thanks
Did not appreciate how many times “espresso bs coffee beans” was said. Thanks for the video tho
They are actually classified as Espresso and Filter.
Nobody uses the term regular coffee beans. Your are trippin
Save 5 min. Dark roasted beans are espresso beans. That’s a long video for 10 seconds worth of answering the title of it.
This is exactly what I talk about in this video:

Well shit this really didn’t tell me what kind of beans are more flavorful.
It's dark roast for me
Watching this video was a mistake. Watching anything else would have been better
Not one word about caffeine levels...
Now I’m more confused after watching this video
This was a well produced nifty video that repeatedly failed to make any clear sense out of the topics it was purportedly addressing.
