New To The World of Home Espresso

Having recently taken the plunge and bought a bean to cup espresso machine, I did some diligent research on the 'right' (for me) coffee beans. Other positive reviews aren't wrong for REDBER Cafe Francais; I find it smooth with a lovely rich flavour, but not overpowering It's perfect for my attempts at a flat white. There is a pleasant, mild, lingering aftertaste, which leaves me satisfied for a long time. Now that the coffee beans are sorted, I can concentrate on perfecting the steaming of the milk!

Bean to cup newbie

Only recently bought a bean to cup machine & went to my local coffee shop in New Malden to pick up freshly roasted beans & got presented with these but the strange thing is Redber coffee is in the same business park that I have worked at for the past 30+ years so I can order these & pick them up from work the next morning. Anyway these beans are superb in taste & aroma & we'll be buying them regularly going forward.

I like the flavour, but unfortunately I would get lots of puck and the water would stop percolate. I tried to make it work, but I gave up.
