Bristot L'Americano Dark Roast coffee bean pack 6 kg — 6 × 1 kg

AnAmericano is a long, American-style coffee —a 200-300 mL cup—often made by diluting an espresso with hot water, or brewed directly in a filter coffee maker. Dark roast is the signature American and Italian Alpine style for this type of preparation: it amplifies the notes of dark chocolate, burnt caramel , and toast, resulting in a coffee that holds its even when diluted to double the volume. Bristot, a historic roaster from Belluno (Dolomites, Veneto) since 1919, offers this style in a balanced Arabica-Robusta blend specifically calibrated for office/moderate hospitality service.

The XL 6kg pack is a medium office/moderate hospitality format , calibrated for:

• Average office 15-30 employees — consumption 30-60 cups/day, autonomy 4-6 weeks.
• Moderate CHR (bistro, neighborhood brasserie, tea room) — 50-100 cups/day, autonomy ~2-3 weeks.
• Intensive office break room — 30+ people, shared bean machine.
• Light meals (bar, snacks) — long Americano-style coffees.

For lighter use, choose the 1 kg single bag. For more intensive use (heavy hospitality, catering), the 12 x 1 kg pack is.

It's a deliberate choice for freshness :

• Coffee aromas degrade when exposed to air (lipid oxidation + loss of volatile essential oils). An opened 6 kg bag loses approximately 30% of its aroma in 4-6 weeks.
• In 6 sealed 1 kg bags with a degassing valve, each bag remains fresh until opened. The opened bag will be consumed within 1-2 weeks (average office use), while the 5 remaining sealed bags can be used up.
• Consistency and regularity of cup : each new bag gives a coffee with an identical, against a progressive drift with a single 6 kg bag that is stale.

This is the pro quality standard for XL packs — same approach as Delta, Lavazza and Kimbo on their 3-30 kg packs.

This pack contains whole grains — you adjust the grind according to your machine:

• Automatic grain machine (integrated grinder) — medium grind selector 5-7/10. The machine adjusts the dose and pressure.
• Espresso filter holder — fine grind , 14-18 g double dose, extraction 25-30 s for an espresso or 30-40 s for a lungo.
• Filter coffee maker (grind on demand on dedicated grinder) — medium, ratio 60 g / L.
• Bialetti Moka — medium-fine, full basket without packing.

Dark roast tip : Americano blends reach their full potential in a volumetric filter coffee maker (Moccamaster Pro, Bonavita) or as a long, Americano-style espresso. As a classic espresso, it's still good but less expressive than in a longer format.

Each opened 1 kg bag remains optimal for:

• Moderate use in the hospitality industry (50-80 cups/day) — 1-2 weeks, aroma intact.
• Average office use (30-40 cups/day) — 10-14 days, aromas still excellent.
• Intensive household use (5-10 cups/day) — ~3 weeks, if bag resealed with its heat-sealable band or transferred into an opaque airtight jar.

The other 5 sealed bags can be kept until the indicated best before date (generally 18 to 24 months from roasting), away from light and heat.
