    Flavor is 4/5. It has a nice blend of acidity and sweetness with a slight cacao taste. However, the consistency isn't always reliable, so I might end up with a cup that tastes too harsh.

    Crema is 4/5. Most of the crema is stable and has a thick texture. It creates a nice aroma and mouthfeel.

    Aftertaste is 3/5. The aftertaste is rather spicy. It complements the drinking experience and finishes the cup in an ordinary manner.

    Ambiance is 2/5. This espresso does the job as a daily starter – that's it. However, drinking it at home makes it comforting.

    Value is 5/5. The costs for beans and machine operation are quite low. Considering the result, the price-to-quality ratio is very good.

    Cupping Method:Currently, I'm using the Sage Barista Express with a few extra gadgets to improve the result. The #coffee beans are named Italiano Cremoso by Lavazza, a mix of Arabica and Robusta beans. I use 17 grams of beans to produce 33 - 36 grams of espresso, resulting in a 1:2 ratio. Brewing time is approximately 25-30 sec, excluding pre-infusion.

More Details

Roast Level: Dark
Dark roast coffee features a more intense, robust flavor profile due to its longer roasting time. Therefore, when selecting a dark roast, expect less acidity, a full body, and flavors like dark chocolate, smokiness, and a hint of bitterness.
Espresso
Espresso is a concentrated coffee beverage brewed by forcing hot water through finely-ground coffee beans under high pressure. It is characterized by its rich flavor and distinctive crema—the creamy layer that forms on top of the extracted process. When evaluating espresso, coffee experts often focus on key tasting characteristics such as aroma, flavor, body, and aftertaste. Aroma refers to the fragrant smells released during brewing, while flavor encompasses the coffee's overall taste profile, including notes of sweetness, bitterness, acidity, and richness. Body refers to the coffee's texture or mouthfeel, with descriptors like full-bodied, medium-bodied, or light-bodied. Aftertaste, or the finish, pertains to the lingering flavors and sensations experienced after swallowing the coffee. A well-prepared espresso is prized for its balance and complexity, combining these sensory attributes into a harmonious whole.
