How much cleaner do I need per cleaning session, and is the product economical in use?
Clean Express clean cappuccino cleaner is very economical in use. Usually, a small amount per cleaning cycle is sufficient, depending on your machine's cleaning programme. Users report that one bottle lasts a long time, as only a little product is needed to achieve a good result.
Which types of Lucaffé beans are included in this tasting pack and what are their main flavour characteristics?
This tasting pack contains four different Lucaffé coffee beans: Classic (with hints of chocolate, ideal for espresso or cappuccino), Exquisit (powerful due to a high Robusta content, smooth finish, suitable for espresso and filter coffee), Espresso Bar (spicy espresso with herbal notes thanks to the blend of 60% Arabica and 40% Robusta), and Mamma Lucia (sweet, powerful blend for the morning, delicious with milk).
Does this cleaner leave any residue or odours after use?
The product rinses away completely clean and leaves no residue or aftertaste in your machine. After the cleaning programme and a normal rinse cycle, your device is ready for use, without any unpleasant odours or remnants.
Are the flavours in the mixed package really different from each other?
Yes, each Illy variant in the package has its own character. For example, you will taste floral notes in the Classico, cocoa and caramel in the Intenso, jasmine in the Ethiopia, and chocolate, caramel and honey in the Guatemala. This makes the package ideal as a tasting set to discover your favourite Illy flavour.
Are these Illy beans suitable for every espresso machine or fully automatic machine?
Yes, the Illy coffee beans in this package are suitable for all coffee machines that can brew coffee from whole beans, such as espresso machines and fully automatic machines. For the best results, we recommend grinding the beans just before use.
What kind of flavour can I expect from the illy Decaf coffee beans?
These decaffeinated beans offer a full, balanced flavour with a good body and a smooth finish. Although the caffeine content is strongly reduced, they retain the taste experience you expect from illy. Many customers compare the flavour to the regular illy Classico beans, so you don't have to compromise on experience. Please note: decaffeinated does not mean caffeine-free, a small residual amount remains.
Are these coffee beans suitable for all coffee machines and brewing methods?
Yes, these Lucaffé coffee beans can be used in all fully automatic machines, semi-automatic machines, and other coffee bean machines. The Exquisit variety is suitable for filter coffee as well as espresso, so you can try out different brewing methods with this sample pack.
Are the packages in the sample pack resealable and how should I best store the beans?
The coffee beans are supplied in standard kilo packs from Mövenpick. These are fitted with a valve, but are not always fully resealable. We recommend folding an opened pack tightly or transferring the beans to an airtight coffee storage container to preserve freshness and flavour for as long as possible.
Which Mövenpick coffees are included in this tasting pack and what are their main flavour characteristics?
In this sample pack you will find four types of Mövenpick coffee beans: Café Crema (mild 100% arabica with nutty notes), Espresso (powerful, spicy, with a rich crema layer, perfect for espressos and milk specialities), Gusto Italiano (intense and strong, with beans from Africa and Central and South America), and El Autentico (balanced, full-bodied 100% arabica from the highlands). This way, you can try different flavours and discover which one you like best.
Why are there kilo packs in the sample pack instead of smaller packs?
We supply the Mövenpick tasting pack as packaged by Mövenpick. Therefore, the coffee varieties are available in kilo packs, which is more economical. You will receive a whole kilo of each variety, giving you plenty of time to thoroughly taste each coffee, possibly with company.
For which brewing methods are these decaf coffee beans suitable?
These coffee beans are perfectly suited for espresso machines, fully automatic and semi-automatic machines. Thanks to their balanced roast and rich flavour, they also work well with other brewing methods that use fresh beans, such as a portafilter machine or coffee grinder.
Does this coffee roaster produce a lot of smoke and how should I best deal with it?
As with any coffee roaster, the use of the Gene Café CBR101 produces smoke, especially with darker roasts. We recommend using the device under an extractor hood or near an open window to ensure proper smoke ventilation. This way, you ensure a pleasant user experience, even when roasting indoors.
When is the best time to use freshly roasted coffee for the optimal flavour result?
We recommend waiting at least 4 to 24 hours after roasting before using the coffee. In our experience, the coffee beans are at their best between day 3 and day 5 after roasting. That is when the flavours are at their finest.
How do I find the right temperature and time for roasting with the Gene Café CBR101?
We recommend starting with a temperature of around 235°C and adjusting it based on your taste preference and the type of bean you are using. The average roasting time is between 13 and 17 minutes per batch of 250 grams. Many users indicate that experimenting with temperature and time yields the best results. If desired, you can slightly lower the temperature after the first 'crack' for more control over the roast profile.
Are the three varieties in the sample pack very different in terms of flavour?
Yes, the three types of coffee beans in this tasting pack each have their own character. The Espresso is powerful and full of flavour, the Gran Aroma has a smooth taste with a beautiful crema layer and spicy notes, and the Antica Bottega (100% arabica) offers a subtle cocoa and floral aftertaste. This way, you can easily taste which coffee beans best suit your preferences.
