Espresso Milano
Roasted Coffee
Espresso Milano is a creamy, full-bodied espresso blend in Terra's Classica Collection, supplied as whole beans in retail 340 g and 907 g bags, as well as bulk 1 kg and 3 kg formats for café and restaurant programs. It holds a consistent profile across espresso and filter extraction, so a single bean can serve both an espresso bar and a batch-brew menu without a second SKU. The medium roast keeps the body forward and the acidity delicate – a dependable house espresso for high-volume service.
Tasting Notes
Rich, creamy, and intense in the Italian style, with natural caramel notes. The cup carries good body and a delicate acidity, sitting toward the creamy end of the intensity scale – an approachable profile that staff can describe easily to customers and that anchors milk-based drinks well.
Origin
A blend of Central and South American Arabica beans, selected for balance and consistency rather than single-origin character. Sourcing follows Terra's ethical-sourcing standard, with origin relationships treated as a working value.
Roast
A Medium Roast that builds body and caramelizes the coffee's natural sugars, rounding the cup while keeping its delicate acidity intact.
Brewing
As a general guideline, aim for a 1:16 ratio – roughly 1 gram of coffee to 16 grams of water for a balanced cup – though brew method matters. For a double espresso, use 16–20 g to yield about 60 ml. For drip and filter service, use 8.5 g of coffee per 236.56 ml (8 oz) of water, about 36 g per litre at batch scale.
