Hi All,
First post here, but have been lurking for a while.
I have a question on choosing which beans or roasts are suitable for espresso. Reason I ask is I occasionally purchase some roasted beans from a company in the USA (Klatch), it always coincides with other business freight coming over on FedEx so its only a 3-4 day shipping time from roast to my door.
Anyway, they have a very large variety of roasted beans but only 5 or so classed as suitable for espressos, others might be for drip etc.
Why is that? And if I used a bean suitable for drip in an espresso machine would it be horrid?
Thanks.
