$18.99
Miscela means “blend” in Italian. The Extra Bar is our boldest blend. We have created a blend of beans, roasted perfectly, that any espresso aficionados dreams about. In fact, Italian baristas insist that the best espressos are made from a blend of beans.
Miscela Extra Bar is a blend that has been roasted on the darker range of medium/dark spectrum. The colour of the beans is a chocolate brown. Extra Bar blend produces an espresso with toasty and pleasurable hint of bitterness.
These beans are not oily and have been blended specifically to use in superautomatic espresso machines.
This chart shows where this blend sits within the medium-dark roast profile that Espresso Canada sticks to, because, we know, this is the roast profile best suited for brewing espresso.

Packaged in a kraft bag with a one way valve engineered to release gases and prevent air from entering the bag which ensures freshness and optimal flavour. The resealable bag is ideal for storing beans in the original packaging helping the beans stay fresh after opening. Beans will remain fresh in this bag for 3 to 4 weeks after opening.
Never store beans in a freezer because the moisture will adversely affect the taste and the moisture can clog your grinder. Beans will also absorb the flavours of nearby foods.
