Q: is this espresso or coffee?

submitted by sfan - 1 year ago
  • A: This is a finely ground coffee meant for use in an espresso machine.

    submitted byJanice - 6 months ago
  • A: The espresso ground is in reference to how fine the beans are ground. This item is ground finer, which makes it ideal for espresso machines but can be used for either.

Q: Can you use this in a French Press for cold brew?

submitted by Phoenixmom - 2 months ago

    One of the very best grounded coffee out there. Put Dunkin’s and Starcrab and Lavazza to shame. Every cup is flavorful and strong. Make sure you are getting them from reputable places.

    Janice - 6 months ago
    I got this to use in my espresso machine. It’s a little more bold than I prefer, but pretty good. I have to use a little more sweetener than I do with a medium roast. For those who don’t know, it’s very finely ground for use in espresso machines.

    Illy is the absolute best pre ground espresso you can buy at the grocery store. I use in my Breville and my shots come out excellent and I used to be a barista at Starbucks and a French bakery that served Illy espresso.

    Felicia - 2 years ago, Verified purchaser
    I have purchased multiple cans of this coffee and they have all tasted great until recently. It smells nothing like espresso and has a strong off putting smell. I returned a can in exchange for another and the second can also was no good. Highly disappointed.

    I use this in my espresso machine to make latte’s & cappuccino’s and I must say that this is by far the best brand I’ve tasted. I keep extra cans stocked up because I love it so much. The taste is everything.

    Works well in our espresso machine, flavor is ok but a tad on the bitter side for me but my husband really likes it (I prefer the Intelligentsia black cat). I do wish they carried in store, options are limited

    Purchased a Brim Espresso machine and it does really well in it. I just wish I purchased more at one time. Great option if you are not grinding your own coffee at the moment.
