Flavour profile
Kimbo Armonico belongs to the Kimbo Vending range, designed for automatic coffee machines. Distributors selling it describe a light roast, a bold taste and an intense aroma, with spicy notes of cinnamon and pepper and a hint of liquorice. It is a blend of Arabica and Robusta whose proportions Kimbo does not publish.
Despite its name, it is not the mildest Kimbo coffee: for a smooth espresso, choose Kimbo Prestige; for an organic, floral coffee, choose Kimbo Bio.
The pack contains six individually sealed 1 kg bags: open one at a time while the others stay fresh.

Frequently asked questions

In the meantime, at Cafemalin: the same coffee in a 1 kg bag or a pack of 3 bags, or the smoother Kimbo Prestige 6 × 1 kg pack.
What does the 6 kg Kimbo Armonico pack contain?
Six 1 kg bags of Kimbo Armonico coffee beans, identical to the bag sold individually. Open only one bag at a time; the other five stay sealed.
What do Kimbo Armonico coffee beans taste like?
Its distributors describe a bold taste and an intense aroma, with spicy notes of cinnamon and pepper and a hint of liquorice. It is a light-roasted blend of Arabica and Robusta whose proportions Kimbo does not publish.
What is the Kimbo Vending range?
This is the range Kimbo designs for automatic coffee machines: vending machines and bean-to-cup machines in offices and businesses. Armonico is part of this range: whole coffee beans to be freshly ground, which can also be used in a domestic bean-to-cup machine, a portafilter machine or a moka pot.
How many cups can you make with the 6 kg pack?
Around 860 espressos using 7 g, 600 to 670 using 9 or 10 g, and 330 to 430 double espressos using a portafilter (14 to 18 g). An office serving thirty espressos a day will use it in around a month.
A 6 kg pack or a 3 kg pack?
The pack of 6 bags suits high consumption: an office, a restaurant or a household of keen espresso lovers. For more moderate consumption, the pack of 3 bags avoids keeping coffee for too long; to try this coffee, choose the 1 kg bag.
How should you store the bags?
Keep the bags sealed, away from heat and light, until the date printed on each one. Once a bag is open, carefully reseal it, squeezing out the air, or transfer the beans to an opaque, airtight container. Avoid the fridge: moisture and odours damage the beans.
