Roaster's Notes
The goal with Equator Espresso was to create a familiar experience while tinkering with expectations. The profile is just a hair beyond a solid medium, certainly not dark, and the components tend to be low acidity, resulting in an espresso that might fit into the 'traditional' category. Properly prepared, obviously, Equator Espresso has roots in the classic espresso profile, but that's not the whole story, merely a starting point. The coffee should show a complexity that is typically drowned by traditional roast profiles, a sweetness that doesn't betray the dark chocolate base and a friendliness with milk that should inspire. -- Louie Poore |
SCG Crew Tasting Notes
Equator Espresso has quickly become a crew favorite here for its delicious taste and rich aroma that includes notes of chocolate, almond and apricot. The bean blend is from Brazil, Ethiopia, Rwanda and Sumatra. We sampled it in a French press pot, which we use to deliver an apples-to-apples tasting comparison, even with espresso! It made a darn tasty cup o' java and Gail has used it in a variety of espresso machines. The results are always delicious! |
