Taste Profile
Delta Brazil is a 100% Arabica from Brazil, the world's leading coffee producer. Delta describes it as a fragrant and deliciously refined, sourced largely from Cerrado Mineiro and Sud de Minas, two coffee-growing regions of Minas Gerais: a coffee withbalanced acidityand asweet, fruity aroma reminiscent of tropical warmth.
Intensity 9 on the Delta scale of 15 , or 6/10 on our rating sheets. The sensory profile published by Delta for its Brazil blend primarily features sweet notes (caramel, chocolate) and dried fruit . The result in the cup: a smooth and mellow espresso , very approachable for those who don't enjoy highly acidic or bitter coffees.
An excellent choice as a daily single-origin coffee, or to alternate with another lighter single-origin coffee, the Delta Colombia 500g.

Frequently Asked Questions
Why is Brazilian coffee so popular?
Brazil is the world's leading coffee producer, making it the base for many blends. There are two reasons for its popularity:
- Volume — its production supplies most of the major international assemblies.
- An accessible profile — a well-rounded, mild coffee with moderate aciditythat appeals to a wide audience.
Delta Brazil offers a fragrant and refined, largely sourced from the Cerrado Mineiro and the South of Minas.
What is the difference with Delta Colombia 500g?
The two Delta single-origin engines offer distinct profiles:
- Delta Brazil 500g (this ref.) — Cerrado Mineiro and South of Minas: balanced acidity, sweet and fruity aroma. Intensity 6/10.
- Delta Colombia 500g — Tolima and Huila: soft and velvety, light citrus notes. Intensity 5/10.
Two 100% Arabica coffees to compare side by side, or to alternate depending on the time of day.
Is this a good coffee for an automatic bean-to-cup machine?
Yes, excellent. The Brazilian coffee's profile (round body, low acidity, moderate bitterness) is very versatile —it forgives inaccuracies in grind and temperature settings on entry-level/mid-range automatic machines. Recommended settings:
- Grind : medium 6/10.
- Dosage : 9-10 g per cup.
- Espresso volume : 30-35 mL.
Compatible with all types of machines: Jura, De'Longhi Magnifica, Melitta Caffeo, Philips 3200/5400, Saeco.
Optimal storage?
Reseal the bag tightly after each use, or transfer the grains to an opaque, airtight container. Store in a cool, dry place away from light (pantry), never in the refrigerator. Once opened, consume within 3 to 4 weeks.
Alternatives: Delta grain 500g or larger packs?

- Delta Colombia 500g — single origin cousin, citrus notes.
