Forte Nero Blend Coffee Beans

Bold and Full-bodied…

We developed this blend sometime ago after continued requests for a strong, dark roasted , full bodied coffee that would work well with automatic machines. However, judging by how much we roast of this coffee, there are lot of fans who aren’t putting it through an auto-machine!

Forte Nero, as the name suggests is not for the faint hearted. Taken into second crack, this is a blend of  Brazil and Ethiopian (both Natural process) and a small amount of Indian Monsooned Robusta.

Brew Guides and Tasting Notes

ESPRESSO

We are getting great results with 20.0 grams DOSE / 38 grams YIELD in around 30 seconds. This coffee is all about the body (which is immense), notes of dark chocolate, burnt sugar and a smoky finish.

MILK BASED

With full cream milk, try 20.0 grams DOSE / 38 grams YIELD in around 30 seconds. This is our preferred way to drink this coffee as the milk tempers the bold flavours nicely, we are tasting bittersweet chocolate, toffee and spices.

You will note we have limited grind options on this coffee as we believe it is best suited to certain brew methods, in particular automatic espresso machines. It is also available as a Turkish grind.
