How to Brew It
For espresso, start with an 18 g dose and about 36 g beverage yield in 25–32 seconds. Dial in by changing grind first: finer usually raises resistance and extraction; coarser speeds flow. Let freshly roasted beans degas before judging crema and flavor stability.
Use clean water that meets your brewer or espresso-machine requirements. Keep dose and water constant while adjusting grind. A slow drawdown or drying finish usually calls for a coarser grind; a fast, weak cup often benefits from a finer grind. Store coffee sealed, cool and dry, away from heat, moisture and strong odors.
Choosing Whole Bean, Grind and Size
Case of six 2.2 lb whole-bean bags. Whole bean gives the most control and slows aroma loss; grind immediately before brewing with a consistent burr grinder when possible. If selecting pre-ground coffee, match the option to the brewer. Bulk buyers should divide coffee into smaller airtight portions so the full supply is not exposed each day.
Complete Your Coffee Setup

For whole-bean preparation, the Turin DF64 Gen 2.7 grinder supports precise grind adjustment, while the Turin Legato V2 espresso machine is a practical route for dialing in espresso-capable selections. Equipment is optional and should match the grind and brew method selected.
