Lavazza Pronto Crema coffee beans 1 kg

Pronto means "ready" in Italian. Lavazza named this blend after its ability to produce a dense crema within seconds of extraction, a major advantage in professional settings (bars, restaurants, vending machines) where speed of service is crucial. Unlike some 100% Arabica blends where the crema can take several seconds to form (or may not be very dense at all), Pronto Crema develops an "instant" hazelnut-colored crema that lasts for over 90 seconds.

The two Lavazza Ho.Re.Ca blends with distinct positioning:

• Pronto Crema (this product) — intensity 8/10, more robust, calibrated fast vending/high-volume bar cream.
• Crema Classica — intensity 6/10, more balanced, target office/relaxed restaurant.

Pronto Crema choice for a high-volume bar, Crema Classica for a more relaxed office.

Estimated yield:

• Strong espresso (7g) : ~143 cups.
• Standard espresso (9 g) : ~111 cups.
• Filter coffee maker (60 g / L) : ~83 cups of 200 mL.

Bar (100 espressos/day): ~1.5 days per kilo. Vending (50 cups/day): ~3 days per kilo. Restaurant (30 cups/day): ~5 days per kilo.

Yes — see the Lavazza Pronto Crema 3 kg pack (#31614), composed of three individual 1 kg sachets — the savings compared to buying three sachets separately are shown on the pack's product page. Ideal for medium-sized offices, vending machines, and small restaurants. For even higher consumption, consider the Lavazza Pro 20-30 kg packs.

Carefully reseal the Lavazza bag (zip closure) or transfer the beans to an airtight, opaque container at room temperature (18-22°C), away from light and heat sources. Avoid the refrigerator (humidity and odor absorption). Best before date (sealed bag): 18-24 months. Once opened, ideally consume within 3-4 weeks. In a high-volume professional environment, this timeframe is not a problem (rapid stock turnover).
