ABOUT ESPRESSO AND OUR CAPSULES

First, espresso is not a roasting method, it does not refer to a bean or a blend. It is a method of preparing coffee by using pressurized hot water, forced over finely ground coffee, to produce a concentrated coffee with a deep, robust flavor. For many coffee drinkers, espresso is the very essence of the coffee bean, in its most pure form. It was also the first instant coffee, originally designed as something that could be quickly prepared, translated literally from Italian, “espresso” means express!

Meant to be enjoyed as a quick shot, a quick jolt, a traditional espresso drink is characterized by its small size and its silky crema which holds the aromatics longer, more aromatic, and more intense than your typical cup of Joe. Those of you that have tried to make a café quality espresso at home know, not an easy feat to accomplish! Now, Barrie House has a way for you to match the café espresso experience in your home. We have spent years perfecting our espresso blends, perfecting the grind, and finally to an Aluminum capsule with greater sustainability, greater protection, and better performance. All this with the goal to help you prepare that perfect espresso, at home.





HOW OUR COFFEE IS ROASTED

Because coffee can differ by variety, elevation, and processing, all coffee cannot be roasted the same. Because of this, the roast is the most important part of producing a really good coffee. Like all great family secrets, the art of roasting our specialty coffee has been passed down from one generation to the next. Family-owned since 1934 Barrie House has perfected the art of coffee roasting with these Nespresso compatible capsules in a style reminiscent of old-world Italian espressos We roast our premium coffee beans in vintage roasters with a novel drum design. This allows for better airflow and reduces the risk of over-roasting, which can cause a burnt flavor. Different compounds are developed during this roasting process at different times. By controlling the chemical reactions taking place in the bean during the roast, we can change or determine the flavors in the final cup!

Medium Roasts – Our Medium Roast start to roast out some of the most subtle flavors. As well as showcasing the distinctive qualities of the bean’s origin, it will also bring up caramelization and body.

Blending – Prior to roasting, our roastmasters carefully blend the roasted beans to achieve the desired flavor profile. Once locked in, we duplicate that flavor profile for each of our unique Espresso offerings perfectly, every time.




Coffee with Milk & Sugar

At Barrie House, we want you to enjoy your coffee black, (we worked so hard getting the roast and blend just perfect) and good specialty coffee should taste naturally sweet and delicious without adding anything. But, we will say, there are times when adding milk and/or sugar to your coffee makes perfect sense!

How can milk & sugar improve the taste of Coffee?

Many coffee drinkers add milk and sugar to coffee, probably because most of the coffee they have experienced needed something to make it more palatable or drinkable. Inexpensive coffee will lack sweetness and is often extremely bitter (sound familiar?) Sugar will of course, increase the sweetness and adding milk is a great way to reduce that bitter taste. You may have been overcompensating for poor coffee by adding too much. Fat, sugar and protein are the elements in milk that influence flavor and feel.

Fat gives milk that signature dense, silky texture.

PRO TIP:
Only use whole milk, it is necessary for rich flavor and that silky texture.

Protein in milk is essential for bonding. Milk that is higher in protein has better flavor but will also produce better foam in lattes or cappuccinos. Milk foam is created by adding air to milk which is made possible by heating protein molecules. When properly heated, milk will break down into sweeter tasting compounds. Heating milk below the 140 °F will improve milk and subsequently, making a sweeter coffee.

Adding sweeteners (sugar or sugar substitute) will sweeten our coffee, but please keep in mind what it does to the flavor profile.

TRY THIS:
Take three cups of the same coffee and use a natural sugar in one, Sweet n' Low in another and Stevia in the last. All will "sweeten" the coffee but some may add an aftertaste or dull the true flavor of the coffee.

estate blends &
single origin coffees

Lighter roasts with higher acidity and are more complex may taste sour if you add milk so lighten up on the milk and try the coffee black to start. So, which coffees are best with milk or sugar?

In our opinion, coffees with lower acidity, citrus, or fruity flavors tend to work with milk better (chocolate or earthy flavor profiles). Love a dark roast but don’t like the bitterness? Milk is the answer!

If you enjoy a milder cup with a lot of creaminess and natural sweetness, a medium to medium-dark roast coffee with low acidity is a great choice. Our espresso blends are perfect for those that take their coffee with milk, cream, or sugar. In fact, most espresso blends are intended to be used with milk.

SIGNATURE & SEASONAL
FLAVORED COFFEES

A benefit of adding milk or creamer to our flavored coffees is that it can actually help enhance the flavor of that coffee. It can help make that coconut, bourbon or pumpkin flavor more pronounced – just don’t use too much of the creamer.
