Why Freshly Roasted Coffee Beans Taste So Much Better

As soon ascoffee beansroasted, the countdown begins. After a few days, the flavor peaks, and after about four weeks, the coffee slowly begins to lose its aromas. Many people drink coffee that is months old, and therefore have no idea how good coffee can really taste.

Freshly roasted coffee beans retain their natural oils, their complexity and their aroma. You can taste it in the cup: the flavours are clearer, the finish is cleaner and the balance is much better.

As coffee experts, we recommend drinking coffee between day 5 and day 30 after roasting, which is exactly the window in which we deliver.

Our experience with freshly roasted coffee

At Koffie Kenner we have literally tasted hundreds of coffees. We know what freshness does. Beans that are fresh out of the roaster have a layered body, notes that really stand out, and a creaminess or freshness that you simply do not find in old beans.

We work with small roasters who roast in micro-batches, sometimes as little as 6 to 12 kilos at a time, so that each batch is precisely tailored to the flavor profile of the bean. Our customers notice the difference immediately: better extraction, fuller crema in espresso, and more complexity infilter coffee.

Freshly roasted is not a marketing slogan for us, it is our standard.

How do you recognize really fresh coffee beans?

When buying coffee, always look at the roasting date, not the expiration date. Only then will you know how fresh your beans really are.

Fresh coffee beans smell intense, are dry but slightly oily (especially with dark roast), and release a full, aromatic scent when ground. They are packed in valve bags so that the gases can escape, but no oxygen can enter.

A lot of coffee from the supermarket was roasted months ago, and you can taste it: flat, bitter, musty. At Koffie Kenner, new batches are roasted every week, and the difference is enormous.

Freshly roasted for every type of coffee drinker

Whether you're an espresso fanatic, make your slow coffee with a V60 or start your day with a classic cappuccino: freshly roasted beans take your coffee moment to the next level.

• For espressowe recommend medium to dark roast beans with chocolate tones or a creamy body.
• For filter coffeeare light to medium roasted beans from countries like Ethiopia, Colombia or Kenya perfect.
• For fully automatic machinesIt is best to choose accessible, slightly darker beans that offer stable extraction.

With the right equipment, such as Wilfa filter machines, Eureka coffee grinders or Lelit espresso machines, you can get the most out of your freshly roasted beans.
