I was at my local store and saw these coffee beans on special and checked that it is also available online, so that means all stores I guess.
I have never tried this particular bean myself. I got myself a few Kgs from this deal which is still active. This is more expensive but the beans are freshly roasted.
Same. Need to adjust for a finer grind. No idea why.
Yes I also had to adjust the grinder and also the coffee extraction from my Breville machine was very poor using these coffee beans. I never had any issues for 2 years using any other coffee beans varieties . Have now changed beans and now everything is back to normal. My advise is do not get these Vittoria Coffee Beans! No issues with the Aldi Coffee beans.
will try one. thanks for sharing.
Always grab these when they are 50% off. Use these when making cold brew and rate them over some of the other brands stocked by Woolies. Thanks OP.
50% off Vittoria Organic Coffee Beans Organic is the best value for money I have found.
Always keep 2 bags in the house. Thanks for sharing!
Except ALDI Dark roast, $12/kg , may have gone up a dollar. Get great results from my combo (and technique) using them. Was buying their single origin stuff in the past which was great and disappeared for a while, but noticed they have them again.
Wouldn't mind trying tho, is it different to the usual Vittoria? Bit of a run of the mill type coffee, like Merlo ( both probably consistent tho)
for me this is much better than aldi's one
Which Aldi ones did you try?
I about to finish the Med Dark roast at Aldi, so keen to give this a go.
Try the Aldi single origin Columbia range. Really good coffee. I use it with my Sunbeam Barista Max on grind setting 14, and it makes a better coffee than a lot of cafes around us.
Do you use it for short black or mixed with milk?
@Laziofogna: The first coffee in morning is espresso, and the one in afternoon is with milk. I also make an almond milk latte for the wife and it turns out great too.
Columbia
Yeah great taste and quality. There are always the cheaper Coles and Woolies self named brands but these ther are good. I will get the non organic ones for $14 on special fairly regularly also.
What's the roasting dates?
You won't find them on the packet unless you can decipher the batch code. If roasting dates are important to you (I'm not saying it doesn't make a difference - it does, just if you care or not) then Vittoria are not the beans for you
Probably wouldn't worry me but my Mrs asked :)
Should probably buy from local roaster that offers recent roasted beans
@becku: The Aldi stuff is good, fresh from Melbourne
Dark roast is my go to and is very good for the price, just get some single origin again next time
Personally I prefer the Vittoria Mountain Grown variety that's normally also on special as it's a darker roast, but both are good
Both on sale same price
This coffee is a bit hit and miss in terms of freshness. No roast date on the packaging, so no way to tell whether it was roasted this century or not. I've tried it a few times, and I've only had it taste fresh (ish) once. I've had good results in on my Delonghi Magnifica with the Coles $12/kg house blend. It's a bit one-dimensional, but consistently decent quality.
Got 4 bags of this blend when it was on sale last time. Very happy with the taste. Putting it through a Breville Smart Griner and Sunbeam EM6910 which I assume most of you also have.
I bought it fortnight ago when it was 50% as well, I find that I need to adjust my grinder to 1 or 2 finer dial to get the best extract. Taste wise is not that bad.
