After trying out several brands, combinations of blends and grinds, I have settled for Il Mattino Vivace by Lavazza... it goes perfectly with my semi-automatic espresso machine. Its got almost a toffee and caramel finish to it and very satisfying as my first drink of the day. I am so happy that I came across this coffee. According to their website this is Arabica-Robusta mix (although mix % not specified) and sourced from Chikmanglur plantations. My day just does not start properly without this awesome coffee :)
What is Plantation coffee? The shop where I buy coffee has three main options : Plantation, Peaberry and Robusta. And there is Arabica and Golden Nuggets
Fun fact, Chicory was added into coffee grounds as an adulterant, later chicory became the taste maker of South Indian filter coffee. We got used to the woody, earthy flavour that now chicory became an indispensable ingredient in filter coffee. 🤗
@@atharvadeshpande7210 not necessarily, chicory is added for flavour than adding caffeine. The amount of caffeine depends on the roast and brewing time and method; Lighter roasts have more caffeine than dark roasts. And steep and brew methods such and French press will extract most caffeine than espresso brewing.
Great detailed explanation... Thanks for your keen interest to share coffee details, my favorite blend is 50% Arabica+50% Peaberry+20%Chicory ... it tastes good and I'm always have coffee with milk ... using traditional filter to prepare coffee ...
Hi..its a great video. I drink black filter coffee with no sugar.. should i buy espresso machine or south indian filter maker will be good inuf. Thanks
Hi Amit, how do you brew your filter coffee? what is the method of brewing? Is it a drip coffee machine, a pour over method, or some other method? Each brewing method has different taste profiles. Your choice of brewing equipment will depend on your palate.
@@rajeshbathija9912 I use South Indian coffee maker. I have cholesterol on the higher side so I prefer filter coffee as it doesn't impact cholesterol level. Thanks.
@@amitchugh08 Hi Amit, currently your prefered brewing method is filter. Visit a coffee shop and try an espresso or an Americano. If you feel that the coffee shpp experience is better, go in for an espresso machine. If you're happier with the filter method that you are currently following, stick with it.
Thanks, Arun, I have not come across any roasters that give this information. It's actually a very good point and I would like to know what grade of coffee I am buying as well. If you find a label with this information, do let us know. Cheers!

Ground coffee sold at indian groceries in the US are a hit or miss. Sometimes we get a very stale batch. I was exactly looking for this information to understand the composition of indian coffee so I can try and mimic it with coffee beans available here in the US. I really like the `brown label` coffee that I found in bengaluru. They do slow roasting using a very old slow roaster from Germany, I believe.
Coffee ground 2 months ago, will be more stale than unground that's a year old with packaging being equal. The freshness is dependant on the packaging. But if you buy freshly ground coffee, you'll have have a few days of moderately fresh tasting coffee. It's about about surface area and exposure
Sir what’s the best option to sell filter coffee powder. 100% Robusta & 100% Arabica or chicory mix ! Because I don’t know their experience but many people prescribe for chicory mix since they say 100% Robusta or Arabica is hard to drink and looses thickness & colour. I own a coffee estate and planning of selling directly to customers at Bangalore. Could u guide pls !? Thanks.
Hi Bharath, Thanks for engaging with us. The first and the only principle of business is to give your customers what they want. If you have traditional filter coffee drinkers as your customer base, then you should go in for the chicory mix category and check the other brands in the market, see the blends they have and see what you can offer from your estate. For espresso drinkers, the coffee powder must not contain chicory. Either a 100% Arabica or a blend with Robusta will work. Again, repeat the same exercise-check the current offers in the market and see what you can offer. 100% Robusta is used mainly by instant coffee manufacturers. Hope I have answered your questions. Thanks again!
Hi Tanvi, We don't have a pod machine and do not intend to release one either. We believe in fresh coffee just like most of us believe in fresh food. Simple question for you- Do you prefer tea bags or freshly brewed tea from tea leaves? Exactly. That's our thought process. Cheers!
