Espresso Arabica – The perfect choice for true coffee enjoyment

What is espresso?

Espresso is the concentrated essence of coffee and the basis of many popular coffee specialties. Brewing at high pressure creates a dense crema , which gives espresso its distinctive character.

Well-known espresso variants:

  • Espresso Italiano – The classic espresso with 25-30 ml
  • Ristretto – Shorter extraction time for more intensity
  • Lungo – Extended brewing time for a milder version
  • Americano – Espresso diluted with hot water

But not all espresso tastes the same. The type of bean, in particular, determines the flavor and intensity. This is where Arabica espresso beans come into play.

What makes Espresso Arabica so special?

Espresso Arabica is made from high-quality Arabica coffee beans , known for their balanced aroma and mild, complex flavor. Compared to Robusta, Arabica beans contain less caffeine but offer a greater variety of flavors.

Special properties of Espresso Arabica:

Fine acidity , fruity & nutty notes
Less bitterness , softer taste
Complex aroma that ranges from sweet to chocolatey
Perfect crema , ideal for a classic Espresso Italiano

Thanks to these properties, Arabica coffee is considered the finest bean type for espresso.

Arabica espresso beans from Ethiopia & other top growing regions

Particularly high-quality Arabica espresso comes from traditional highland regions, including:

🌱 Ethiopia – Floral aromas, fruity nuances
🌱 Brazil – Full-bodied, chocolatey notes
🌱 India – Spicy, strong, with subtle cocoa tones
🌱 Asia & Central America – Sweet caramel and nutty notes

Arabica beans from these regions grow slowly and therefore develop particularly complex aromas.

Espresso Arabica vs. Robusta – What’s the difference?

While Arabica coffee is considered more refined, Robusta also has its advantages.

🔹 Arabica:
Complex aromas with fine acidity
✔ Less caffeine, but smoother taste
✔ Ideal for espressos with a slight sweetness

🔹 Robusta:
Twice as much caffeine for extra strength
✔ More bitter substances, stronger taste
✔ Thicker crema for intense body

Many roasters offer blends of Arabica and Robusta to combine the benefits of both beans.

Roasting & roasting time – How does it affect the taste?

Roasting plays a crucial role in the taste of an espresso.

🔥 Light roast: Emphasizes fruity and floral notes, ideal for filter coffee
🔥 Medium roast: Perfect for Espresso Italiano as it maintains a balanced aroma
🔥 Dark roast: Stronger flavor, less acidity

The roasting time influences the development of bitter substances – the longer the beans are roasted, the stronger the aroma becomes.

Tip: High-quality Arabica espresso beans from the BunaBar Shop offer a perfectly balanced selection of roasts.

The perfect grind for Espresso Arabica

The degree of grinding is crucial for optimal espresso extraction.

Finely ground for portafilter
Medium grinding level for fully automatic machines
Coarsely ground for French press or filter coffee

Problem: Grind too finely → espresso tastes bitter. Grind too coarse → espresso becomes watery.

Preparation tips for the perfect Espresso Arabica

To make your espresso perfect, follow these tips:

  1. Use freshly ground beans – For maximum aroma
  2. Maintain water temperature of 90-94 °C
  3. Observe the correct extraction time (25-30 seconds)
  4. Tamper evenly to avoid over- or under-extraction

With the right technique, Espresso Arabica unfolds its full-bodied intensity .

The influence of taste and crema on the quality of Espresso Arabica
