CARAMELLA Roasted Coffee Beans

I ordered 1kg of Soprano Caramella for use in a Breville Duo-Temp Pro home coffee machine after getting stale beans again from our local wholesale supplier. Soprano sent the beans form Sydney on the same afternoon that was stamped as the 'Roasted' date. They arrived 1500klm later, on the third day after roast date! Dialing in the grind on such fresh beans was a silly thing to do and the Breville Smart Grinder Pro had to go far finer than usual to slow the flow of coffee, resulting in less than optimal flavour for the first few cups. After a few more days though, and by experimenting with a smaller volume out, so as to get just a little more than a straight ristretto, the beans created a nice, very strong, but not bitter, espresso. Over the next week the flavour grew more intense, and although it was a little too 'strong' for some of my friends' tastes, it still wasn't bitter. As a base for cappuccino and latte in the home coffee machine, it filled out the flavour, rather than having the sort of bland taste of some other coffees. If you like your coffee with plenty of flavour, I recommend playing with the volume and time. My favourite for a short black was 18 into the Breville single wall double basket, and about 25ml out. My favourite for cappuccino is still 18g into the single wall double basket, and 36ml out, although 32 - 34ml is a little smoother in cappuccino or latte for guests who don't like their coffee strong. My next order was the Mocha' blend, and it also arrived 3 days after roast date. I'm letting it sit for a few days before I test it in the Breville :-) Thank you Soprano, and Aramex, for the fast, reliable service.

It is very good coffee

Long time customers. We love this blend at home and get through a kilo quickly! Super easy regular ordering, super fresh roasted beans and makes a beautiful coffee every time. Delivery is quick and efficient and very competitively priced. We love Soprano.

Fantastic Coffee Beans, had them first at a local Cafe and now ordering them at home because I loved the flavours so much! Nothing better than a home-made morning Latte!

I was recently sent a sample of Caramella coffee and loved the depth of flavour . Absolutely my favourite coffee as of now.

I enjoy my coffee as a long black, specifically a double shot of espresso on 3/4 mug of hot water. I've tried many beans from many roasters and can't find any as good for this type of coffee as the Caramella. Admittedly taste is very subjective thing but I find that this blend is, to me at least, full bodied with a lovely crema and a dark chocolate finish.
