Frequently Asked Questions
What is "dark roast"?
Dark roast = dark roasting. The coffee beans are roasted longer and at a higher temperature than classic espresso blends — until they achieve a dark brown or even black color, with brown oils visible on the surface of the bean.
Effects in the cup : more pronounced roasted, cocoa, and dark chocolate notes ; a fuller body ; and a more pronounced bitterness . A style common in North America, especially for filter coffee. Bristot's Americano Dark Roast retains a pointof acidity and a long finish.
Americano, espresso, filter coffee: what's the difference?
Three ways to serve coffee:
- Italian espresso — tight extraction (25-30 mL in about 25 s) , concentrated and short coffee , to be drunk in 1-2 sips.
- Americano — an espresso lengthened with hot water, for a longer and less concentrated cup.
- Filter coffee — the water slowly passes through the grounds (pour-over, French press, filter coffee maker): this is the use for which Bristot designed this coffee.
Despite its name,Americano Dark Roast is primarily a filter coffee ; in a bean-to-cup machine, it is suitable for the long coffee program.
