Italian coffee beans are famous around the world for being one of the best coffee beans to make espresso coffee with. In Australia there is a misconception that coffee beans must be 'fresh' which basically implies that coffee beans taste the best if consumed as soon as possible after roasting. This is false. Genuine Italian espresso coffee is made from Italian coffee beans. The method by which Italian coffee beans are prepared is completely the opposite from how the more recent Australian coffee roasters prepare coffee. Italian master coffee roast-men blend a variety of different grades, origins and sizes of coffee beans to give the desired symphony of aroma and taste. Once blended roasting takes place, in the roasting stage simple knowledge and experience is what is completely relied upon to give the best result. After roasting the Italian coffee roast-men ensure that the beans are effectively packaged and then 'aged' in a temperature and humidity controlled room. This maturing phase is the most important stage in developing the coffee beans flavour. Aging the coffee beans does not degrade the beans as falsely claimed by Australian roasters, aging increases the flavour. Only Oxygen, heat and UV light degrades coffee beans.
