The grind should have been a little Coarser because this grind size is choking my machine
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience caused.
Our espresso grind corresponds to Grind No. 4, which is a fine grind calibrated on our machines. We take grind size accuracy very seriously and have standardized this setting after detailed testing and market study to suit the majority of espresso machines available in the market.
Espresso machines vary in pressure, flow rate, and basket design. Because of these differences, using coffee in pre-ground (powder) format involves a small trade-off, as a single grind setting cannot be perfectly matched to every machine.
For the most premium and fully customized espresso experience, we recommend selecting whole beans and grinding them yourself to match the exact requirements of your espresso machine.
This is my first purchsse from Fraction 9. Iam really impressed. I tried the Dark MINUS Roast. The flavor is beautifully balanced: strong and bold, but not harsh. As a black coffee, it has a full body and a natural brown sugar sweetness that lingers nicely. I am enjoying it
Proper light roast with a smooth berries and nutty undertones. Good if you are looking for a balanced cup.
Typical washed Indian coffee with generic nutty notes. Pretty good for the price it is sold.
Previously i bought CT Estate Golden Jaggery - red honey process. This coffee is bitter than the previous one. I m using hario v60 brewing
The coffee gives a unique flavor of sweetness and acidity. The roast is so good that it retains all the flavours
My breakfast roast turned out to be well balanced with nutty character but it lacked the smoky feel that i was expecting. Overall a good brew for pourover. I’m yet to try it on espresso. Will post another review for espresso
When I ordered this sampler, I mentioned in the notes that I drink my coffee black and would prefer light to medium roasted beans. Out of the 6 beans that I received, 5 were light/light plus and the sixth was a washed medium roasted bean. 4 of these were nanolots! Since I haven't brewed all of them yet, I can't give a thorough review on each of those but I must say the one I tried (Breakfast Roast) is amazing. I don't think there's another roaster selling such good beans at an affordable price. Can't wait to try the rest!
Bright acidity and fruity notes, still has some body despite being a light+ roast, enjoyable even as espresso, but really shines as pourover, tart fruitiness mellows out well while cooling, and notes evolve beautifully on the tongue, makes you want to sit with the coffee longer. Needs high extraction pourover brewing for best results.
Nutty, sweet, subtle flavors of washed coffee, great as both filter and espresso. Very forgiving roast, emdlessly versatile. I've had it as espresso, South Indian filter, and pourover, have enjoyed all 3. Works a tab better with milk than black, but even black is enjoyable.
It's quite good. I'm not sure if it's at the same level as last year's Crimson Spirit. Because that had the characteristic Ratnagiri sweetness. This is different, but very good. Still waiting for it to open up completely. Love the value for money F9 offers.
