The Beans
Great coffee starts with great beans. The quality and flavor of your coffee is not only determined by your favorite brewing process, but also by the type of coffee you select. There can be a world of difference between roasts, so check out our roasting types guide.
Some of the flavor factors include:
What country is the coffee from, and what region?
What is the variety? Or is it a blend?
Do you favor a dark roast coffee, a light blend or something in between?
What kind of grind have you selected?
While there are a lot of choices, remember that there’s no right or wrong — you can choose a dark, flavorful espresso roast coffee and still have it ground to be brewed in a drip system. Have fun trying and enjoying different combinations.
