Taste Profile
Lavazza Pronto Crema — as its name suggests — is the Lavazza blend optimized to offer a very dense and persistent crema, in the traditional Italian espresso format. It's a predominantly Arabica blend (South and Central America) with carefully measured African/Asian Robusta for the crema, and a balanced medium roast in the northern Italian (Turin) style.
In the cup : a round and enveloping espresso , with a very dense, hazelnut-colored crema that lasts for over 90 seconds, signature notes of roasted hazelnut, milk cocoa, malty and slightly woody notes . Medium to full body (7/10), integrated acidity, moderate bitterness — the very accessible and universally appealing middle ground of Lavazza .
The 3 kg format is ideal for: medium-sized offices (15-30 employees), small restaurants (10-20 coffees/day), meeting rooms/regular seminars, and vending machines in businesses. The 3 kg pack allows for optimized stock rotation over 4-6 weeks — saving 3% compared to purchasing 3 x 1 kg bags separately.

Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly does this 3kg pack contain?
This pack contains three identical 1kg bags of Lavazza Pronto Crema whole bean coffee. Delivered in a standard grouping carton, without pallet restrictions. Each bag has a zip closure and a degassing valve to maintain freshness after opening. This design allows for optimized stock rotation : you only open one bag at a time; the other two remain sealed until use, preserving their original aromas.
Who is this blend and format aimed at?
Universal multipurpose blend — broad target audience:
- Office space for 15-30 employees — automatic grain machine, regular use.
- Vending machine — blend optimized for machine extraction.
- Small restaurant — coffees at the end of the meal, welcome coffee.
- Seminar room / coworking space — regular coffee accessible to all palates.
A balanced medium roast profile that appeals to the widest audience, without any sharp edges or surprises — ideal for environments where coffee preferences vary greatly between users.
What is the difference between this and Lavazza Super Crema or Crema e Aroma?
Three versatile Lavazza blends to distinguish:
- Pronto Crema (this ref.) — optimized fast-acting dense cream for vending / dispenser, pro pack format.
- Super Crema 1 kg — 60% Arabica, honeyed notes similar but rounder and sweeter.
- Crema e Aroma 1 kg — 40% Arabica, more full-bodied, hazelnut + chocolate notes, CHR standard.
Recommended for vending machines / automatic dispensers?
Yes, that's even its historical use. The Pronto Crema blend is optimized for automatic extraction machines —calibrated bean size, Robusta blend calibrated for dense crema, roasted to suit vending grinders. Ideal for office coffee vending machinesand professional bean-to-cup machines in coworking spaces and business centers. The "instant" hazelnut-colored crema, produced within seconds of extraction, is a major advantage in self-service environments where users judge quality by the visible crema.
How many cups can I make with this 3kg pack?
Estimated yield:
- Strong espresso (7g) : ~428 cups.
- Standard espresso (9 g) : ~333 cups.
Office (20 cups/day): ~3 weeks per pack. Vending (30 cups/day): ~2 weeks per pack. Restaurant (30 cups/day): ~2 weeks per pack.
Are other Pronto Crema formats available?
