I made it with using a linen cloth filter bought from Tiger, using boiled water let to cool slightly. the coffee tasted great, nutty and chocolatey mild. It's Colombian coffee, and it was freshl smelling and packed with an air valve built into the packet.. The way you make it is significant, and important, I've seen so many machines destroy the taste of fresh ground coffee, amateurs make too many mistakes. Handmade coffee, without coffee machines is the best way to make coffee. People rely too much on coffee machines which are not adjustable to different types of coffees. I encourage anyone to experiment, some coffees go well in a machines, some do not. This coffee was the best quality out there for the price.

Is lofberg the only swedish brand that sells their coffee in UK?

One of the worst coffees ever.

Thanks a mill for this. Eternally grateful. Managed to get the filter out amd clean it, but not the flat-head screw. Still worked fine, though.

They've done it again and to me less strength even though still 10 ?

I know good coffee when I taste it and this stuff is excellent at ANY price. Strong rich flavour, and a LOT of caffeine 👍🏻👍🏻

These beans are the best shizzle. Don't tell anyone cos they're always out of stock

The problem is that actually it doesn’t state all ingredients because it is not explicit the type of flavouring that was used. In a lot of cases senomix is the hidden ingredient.

Thank you so much

Tried lots of different coffees in my bean to cup machine and this one in the bean bag triumph's over any I've tried.

Oh my gosh, you are not going to believe why I found your video so helpful. I've had one of these and love it. I'm going camping soon and wanted to pack the items back into it's box and tried all kinds of things. Then, I had an idea, I'll Google Aeropress Unboxing and there you were. I watch how the items came out of the box. Yeah! I got it all packed away and ready to pack. So thank you, thank you, thank you. I even took a pic so when I pack it to bring back home, I have a reference. Just made me chuckle. Amazon also has some really nice counter set ups for these, maybe even for packing, but I always like to keep the original box for if and when I may need to store it.

Yesterday I got that same package of coffee beans. Best before end of 02/2026. Once I opened the package, the smell was horrible! When I brewed the coffee, the outcome was the same: horrific, undrinkable!! The package will go into the bin!

Soooo what was the Fix?? Stretching the spring, that’s it?

i brought the americano decaf coz i couldnt afford my ususal nescafe azera. Never again. reminds me of the cheapest granuel crap and it was 3 quid for a little tin. so not mega cheap.

Hi from a bit further down the A580. Have you tried the Joepresso attachment for the aeropress? Better then the Prismo. Almost makes it an espresso, but make sure you press it into a metal cup or risk smacking your face into a worktop full of broken cup 😂

What a shame thought it'd be better since I've heard the Swedes have high standards for their caffeine. I've got that same French press lol!

Lol if you dislike Carte Noir you will HATE other french brands. This coffee is better weak.

It's worked and operating like brand new! Was so close to spending £300 on a new Machine. Thanks so much 👍🏽

With a flavour profile like that I'm surprised it has an "espresso" tag in its name. The acidity you described would rule it out for me, I'm not a fan. Did you try it in your espresso machine DMC?

I tried this out just a few days ago and have to disagree with you.. I found it very pleasing and close to their tasting notes. My method was as an espresso using a non-pressurised basket, 17.5g, with a 29sec pour and an output of 36g. (if that helps). Thanks for all your hardwork with the video's.🙂

Tbh I don't rate union that high, find it overpriced and average

I really enjoyed that coffee. Maybe i use too much .i tend to put about 4 scoops per cup in the coffee press

Haven't found anything that comes near Leon blonde organic so far

Don't think I've ever been disappointed in a Taylor's coffee. Often get their ground decaf to use in my espresso machine. Been trying Kaffekapslen Espresso beans and pleasantly surprised for the price. Not mind blowing, but seems good for me to have some enjoyable coffees between trying some more expensive fresh coffees.

Not tried this one, but really enjoyed the Pact Tutti Frutti espresso.

I've tried them all in lidl and this one is certainly the best , never goes too bitter with a pleasent chocolate slight fudgey/nutty taste, passable

Sick nd tired of having machine that demands a technician. I dumped my Delongshi LONG time ago.

i want to ask, must you use filter before drink?

I know this is a 6 year video and not the same machine but what did you use to clean screw and spring?

You are a Genius!!! Thank you!!!!!

What’s that place rubber thing called with three teeth? Right where the espresso comes out?

Brilliant review. I really liked this coffee as it didnt have any acidity. Found it especially good as an after dinner coffee

Just tried this BUT the rating on my bag was a 5 strength/roast; bag exactly the same otherwise. Date was Mar 2026 so really fresh. Tried dialling in over a range of grinds/times for both Espresso [16g in, 32g out ~28 sec extraction time for espresso], and French Press [16g in, 20:1 ratio, 60 second initial pre-infusion in 32g water, then top up to 320g water for a 5 minute infusion, decant top, and then a further 5 minute infusion]. Results were as described i.e. a bitter and not very pleasant/average coffee experience; and I like my coffee dark/black, wouldn't buy again. As reviewer says probably OK in milky-based coffee drinks. Of the two £4 for 454g bags in Lidl, the other ITALIAN BLEND beans [not Italian STYLE] are a far better coffee drinking experience in my opinion.

Tried the caramel version the artifical flavouring was disgusting

Just had this coffee as my first one from Pact. Wasn't overly impressed for the price, I've had better coffee from non-fresh supermarket beans. Maybe that it's just not my preferred flavours in a coffee. Going to try at least 3 deliveries from Pact then decide if I'll cancel. I've had a lot of nice coffee from Rave. Their my favourites so far. Lovely little review though, I'll continue to watch some of your others.

Bought some of this a couple of days ago as a stop gap/emergency, and was really perplexed by the result.To note, the bag was the same, the date was Sep2025 [so pretty fresh], BUT the rating was 4 [not 5]. The writing stated ITALIAN ROAST not ITALIAN BLEND, but everything else looked the same including being 100% Arabica; price was £3.99 for 454gms. The beans look-wise were as described in this video with an inconsistent roast some paler/some darker, but no burnt edges, and the grind also. Did an Espresso 16g in/32g out, aiming for ~25-28 secs BUT the machine initially choked and the extraction to about x3 longer than it should [about 1min 30 secs]. Now I was expecting a bitter, horrible, over-extracted shot BUT this is not what I got. I got a sweet, chocolaty, medium to full bodies Espresso that was a delight..really shocked. Since then I have tried dialing in this bean around the 25-30 sec mark, and although some of these have been fine they were a match for the initial choked result. I have also done a French Press as per James Hoffman video protocol and this gave quite a pleasant result too. So the moral is?...sometimes theory doesn't = practical, and for this bean if I didn't want to risk breaking my machine/pump I would purposely choke my Espresso extractions 🙂

Hi, yes I agree with you on your review, I’ve just tried it and although it’s ok it comes across a bit weak for my taste. I use a Moka pot. Thanks for your review.

Now how about that big black gasket? How do you get that out there to clean or replace it? I haven't any videos to show how to do it for this exact machine.

Interesting how different peoples taste profile can influence their opinion. I have just bought a bag of this yesterday; it was/is really fresh with a BBD on the bag of Feb 2026, and I wasn't that impressed. OK, its only £2 but in comparison to Waitrose Italian blend at £2.50 I felt it came a bit 'short'. This said, I pulled the shot a bit long [16g in, 32g out. ~35 secs] so it would have been over extracted, and once I have dialled it in properly it may improve the profile.

Didn't like Segafredo intermezzo as well. Shit coffee is expected from nescafe, they have some roastery instant coffee that I wonder about

Brave man! If I didnt like a coffee after the 2nd or third cup. The beans would have been made into compost or returned if possible. Sometimes, something like _"Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back"_ can be printed somewhere on the packaging in small print. I know that some of the supermarkets own branded items can have that printed on so its worth keeping an eye out for just in case there is something wrong with the coffee.

oh well never mind at least you finished the paquet lol , Here is France there is a product called RICORE which is made by Nescafe is a mixture of instant Nescafe coffee + chicory which makes a healthy options for breakfast at 2,60 euros

The Bellarom Gold 100% Arabica is nice. 500g @ 3.99

I like this one to be fair. Quite dark but not bitter! Full fkavour

I will say, for the price this is a fantastic coffee. I think this has been discontinued as I've not been able to find it for a while in the west midlands. Fingers crossed they replace it with a similar grade of coffee.

wow!

Earthy,,,is best way I can describe it,,,not pleasant at all

Your soo underrated!!! You need to blow up🎉

Bought yesterday [10 May 2024] for 2.69 in Lidl. Date was Sept 2025 so for supermarket beans pretty fresh. Beans as you described; will be oily as its a strong roast. Brewed a 1:20 freshly ground French press [16g/320ml H2O] as per James Hoffman protocol [see his youtube site]. Initial impressions: Rich, sweet followed by bitter finish, slight smoky, but didn't get chocolate. Brewed freshly ground Espresso 16g in, 32g out, 28 secs on Delonghi Stilosa machine with IBS competition unpressurized basket. Initial impressions as above but this time I got the initial chocolate and less bitter. Being so fresh I was surprised not to get much crema; perhaps they degass it as part of the production process, but this is not the 'be all and and all' as it only impacts the mouth feel rather than the flavour. Better as an Espresso than French press. Overall, OK for the price but feel that there are better i.e. Waitrose Italian style [£2.50-£3 for 227g], or my current favourite Lofbergs Single Estate Brasilian in a Purple/Yellow bag [£11-£12 for 1kg]. I think the latter give the best 'Bang for the buck', and is suitable for all protocols [vary grind], and both black and milky drinks.

You are such an id iot. I know, that might sound like an insult just uttered by me, but it isn't; it's just a phrase that represents the harsh truth supported by facts. Where are the facts? I'll show you now... So, I agree with you that this coffee, taken as it is straight from the package, won't result in anything remarkable. However, (from personal experience, as I make it every morning) if you give it 30 seconds of grinding with a coffee grinder, you'll discover it's an excellent creamy coffee! Because the problem with this coffee is just the grind, which isn't ideal, but if you grind it a little more (without overdoing it), it becomes an excellent coffee! So, before making incorrect and approximate reviews, make sure to do all the necessary checks. And I am Italian, so I know a thing or two about good coffee..
