Lavazza Super Crema Whole Bean Espresso Coffee, Medium Roast, 2.2 lb Bag

Yes. It is roasted for espresso but there is nothing stopping a coarser grind in a press or drip brewer, and the hazelnut sweetness carries over.

Expect a heavier, lower-acid cup than a filter-roast bean would give.

Both machines grind whole bean on demand, so this is exactly what their hoppers are for.

Start near the middle of the grind range and step finer until a double shot runs roughly 25 to 30 seconds.

Not in this blend. Lavazza uses washed robusta, which is cleaner than the cheap dry-processed kind, and it is there for body and crema rather than punch.

The dominant flavours are still nut and sugar, not rubber or ash.

Roll the top down, clip it, and keep it in a cupboard at room temperature. The one-way valve vents CO2 without letting air back in.

Avoid the fridge and freezer once opened; condensation on the beans does more damage than a few days of air.

Around fifty double shots at an 18 gram dose, or closer to a hundred singles. That is roughly a month for a two-espresso-a-day household.
