Koffiebonen KIMBO Caffe Crema Classico 1 kg van KIMBO S.p.A.

KIMBO Caffe Crema Classico whole bean coffee, packed in a 1 kg bag by KIMBO S.p.A., is a blend designed for use with grinders and espresso machines. Supplied as whole beans to retain volatile aroma compounds, it allows users to adjust grind size and extraction for espresso-based drinks and filter coffee. The format suits both home baristas and professional environments where consistent crema and balanced flavour are required.

Advantages

The whole bean format preserves freshness and aroma until grinding, enabling customization of grind settings for different brewing methods. The blend is formulated to produce a stable crema and a balanced taste profile suitable for milk-based and black espresso preparations. Packaging in a 1 kg bag supports longer use cycles in busy kitchens or for consumers who prefer buying in larger quantities.

Suitable for

• Home espresso machines with integrated or external grinders
• Professional espresso machines in cafés or small restaurants
• Filter coffee makers and pour-over methods when ground appropriately
• Milk-based drinks such as cappuccino and latte as well as straight espresso

When it may not be suitable

Sold as whole beans, this product requires a grinder; it is not suitable for users who need pre-ground coffee. The 1 kg pack is larger than single-use retail sizes, so it may not be ideal for occasional drinkers concerned about long-term freshness after opening unless resealed and stored properly.

Key specifications

• Form: whole coffee beans
• Weight: 1 kg per pack
• Intended use: espresso and filter brewing after grinding
• Blend character: balanced profile with crema production suitable for milk and black preparations

How to use

Store the 1 kg bag in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. For best results, grind beans immediately before brewing: finer grind for espresso, medium to coarse for filter methods. Dose according to your machine or method—typical single-shot espresso uses 7–9 g of ground coffee, while double shots and milk drinks require higher doses. Adjust grind size and dose incrementally to achieve desired extraction, crema, and taste balance.

What to consider before purchase

• Whether you have a grinder to process whole beans
• Storage options to maintain freshness for a 1 kg pack
• Preferred brewing methods (espresso, filter, or mixed use)
• Quantity needs compared to consumption rate to avoid staling

Recommendations

Grind immediately before brewing and use airtight storage after opening. For espresso machines, start with a medium-fine grind and adjust in small steps to achieve a balanced extraction and stable crema. When preparing milk drinks, slightly under-extracted coffee can taste sour—fine-tune grind and dose to match your equipment and taste preferences.
