Lavazza 4202A 2.2 Pound Super Crema Espresso Whole Bean



Uniformly Excellent

Don’t have a clue what the negative reviews are about…it’s a food product and there will always be natural variations in consistency. I haven’t experienced any with this product. Even though I received a 1kg bag with a broken seal, it was still excellent (it’s a sin to waste it, LOL!). [...]. As far as the “light” color goes, oily black beans clog super-auto machine’s grinders so they’re usually not recommended. FWIW, the Illy (see below) is black as night and it’s pre-ground so I don’t have to worry about clogging as I can manually bypass dose the machine.

Personally, I love the stuff! I was introduced to it by friends who bought a Saeco Incanto Sirius super-auto (HIGHLY Recommended) and use Super Crema and Illy Decaf pre-ground (fantastic, but you need a mortgage to buy the stuff) and I loved them so much I bought my own Sirius and tons of Lavazza (as well as the Illy decaf).

great coffee!!!

after years of using starbucks espresso roast in my gaggia titanium, i thought i’d try something different. there is really NO comparison…the lavazza beans produce coffee that is less bitter and sweeter than any of the starbucks coffees…there is a lovely thick crema on top of the glass (thicker and tastier than any i’ve ever tried) i can even happily enjoy full cups of americano coffee from my gaggia (doesn’t work really well with other beans, again, they tend to be bitter and acidy)


highly recommended!

Fantastic

Fantastic espresso beans! I usually drink Illy, but thought I would give this a ‘shot’… and I was not disappointed! This has a slightly smokier flavor than the Illy roasts, produces a NICE crema, and is ultra smooth.


In short, give this a try. Highly recommended for my fellow coffee heads out there…
