Taste Profile
This 12 x 1 kg pack contains 12 identical bags of Crema e Aroma Expert blend , 's Cafemalin, in best-selling coffee two boxes of 6. Roasted in Italy by Lavazza, this multi-origin Arabica-Robusta blend delivers a smooth, creamy, and indulgent profile : dominant notes of milk chocolate, cocoa, and dried fruit , a dense and persistent crema, and a measured bitterness.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the 12kg pack exactly the same coffee as the 1kg bag?

Who is the 12 kg format intended for?
The 12 kg size is the first professional level in the Crema e Aroma Expert range:
- Office of 15 to 30 people (30 to 60 coffees/day): 12 kg covers ~4 to 8 weeks — the opened bag is consumed in a few days, the rest remains sealed.
- Small hospitality establishment (brasserie, tea room, ~100 coffees/day): ~2 and a half weeks of service.
- Large consumers and associations that have already validated the blend in 1 kg or 6 kg packs.
For a householdof the same size, 12 kg represents more than a year's worth of coffee: opt for the 1 kg bag or the 3 kg pack.
How many cups can I serve with this 12kg pack?
Yield depends on dosage:
- Strong espresso (7 g/cup) : ~1,714 cups.
- Standard espresso (9 g/cup) : ~1,333 cups.
- Long coffee (10 g/cup) : ~1,200 cups.
- Filter coffee maker (12 g/cup) : ~1,000 cups.

Which size should I choose: 6, 12, 18 and 30 kg?
The four packs contain the same 1 kg bag, in cartons of 6; only the volume changes, and with it the savings per bag:
- 6 kg (1 carton) — office < 15 people, household volume.
- 12 kg (2 cartons, this pack) — office 15-30 people, small hospitality establishment.
- 18 kg (3 cartons) — catering, hotel, high-volume office.
- 30 kg (5 cartons) — High-volume catering and institutional food service.
Simple rule: choose the format that you will consume in two months at most, to open each sachet within its optimal flavor window.
How to store 12 kg of coffee beans without losing the aromas?
The 12 x 1 kg format is designed for long-term storage : each bag remains hermetically sealed in a protected atmosphere until opened. Best practices:

- Open one sachet at a time and consume within 4 to 6 weeks for optimal flavor.
- Once opened, reseal carefully (one-way valve) or transfer to an opaque, airtight jar; only fill the machine hopper for one or two days of use.
- Best before end date (closed) : 18-24 months from the roasting date, indicated on each bag.
