## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this coffee oily? Did anyone use it for automatic espresso machine?**
A: 2 tips for running oily beans in super automatic espresso machines:

1. Alternate between oily and non-oily beans. My go-to bean is Starbucks espresso roast, but running just those beans will eventually build up a funk taste in the grinder because of the oil residue going rancid. To minimize that, I like to layer Espresso Roast with Starbucks Veranda blend (light brown, non-oily beans. The taste variations you get with varying blend ratios is quite nice! Sometime I use Starbucks Caffe Verona (another dark, oily bean) instead of or in addition to the Espresso roast.

2. When the funk taste arrives, I clean the super automatic grinder by running out all the beans and then running a product called Urnex Grindz. I see they now offer a version just for super-automatic machines, but I figured out a way to use their regular version in my DeLonghi machine. The product looks like light yellow coffee beans and is super moisture absorbent when ground and will mess up your machine if you run a full shot cycle with it (once water runs through it, it will expand greatly and can brake the machine). Instead, run through just the grind cycle and then IMMEDIATELY UNPLUG the machine when you hear the grinding stops and BEFORE it starts pumping the water through the compressed grounds in the diffuser. Plug the machine back in so it will reset the diffuser position and then turn the machine off.  Remove the diffuser and clean up the diffuser and mess of ground Grindz powder. Repeat this process 3 or 4 times. Make sure it's extra clean before running beans through again. You might want to run several shots of a cheap coffee bean to fully clear it out because you can't get all the traces of it out of the grinder. It's non-toxic but even tiny traces of the Grindz left behind in the grinder will suck the flavor out the first several shots after cleaning. That will fade away as  you continue to use the machine. Your espresso will start to taste wonderful again after this.

Since doing tip #1, I haven't had to do tip #2, but I will because I'm sure I'll notice an improved taste afterwards.

**Q: Are the beans fresh, shiny?**
A: When beans are shiny that usually means that they have been been roasted at high temps to make the bean darker. The moisture and oil comes out of the bean at that point

**Q: Are there articificial flavors in the Hazelnut Creme coffee?**
A: Hi, my name is Sarah from San Francisco Bay Coffee.  While we use only natural flavoring in our organic line, we use both natural and artificial flavoring in our San Francisco Bay, flavored coffees.  If you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to contact us at service@sfbcoffee.com.

**Q: Is your coffee gmo free?**
A: "Coffee has long been genetically modified since the late 1890's-1900's."

This is absurd. Hybridization and the genetic modification that takes place in a laboratory aren't even remotely close to the same thing. I know it's an old question, but this ridiculousness needs to be squashed whenever it rears it's ugly head.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by G***A on 15 June 2025*

I recently ordered the [Brand Name] whole bean coffee from Amazon, looking for a fresh and flavorful option to upgrade my morning brew. The package arrived quickly and was well-sealed, preserving the aroma and freshness of the beans. Aroma: As soon as I opened the bag, I was hit with a wonderful, rich scent—notes of dark chocolate and a hint of caramel. It smelled fresh and inviting, exactly what you’d hope for in a premium coffee. Grinding & Brewing: I used a manual grinder and tested the beans in both a French press and an espresso machine. The grind was smooth, and the beans responded well in both methods. I got a full-bodied cup every time, with consistent extraction and very little bitterness. Taste: The flavor is robust yet balanced. There’s a natural sweetness with subtle nutty and chocolatey undertones. The acidity is mild, and the finish is smooth. It’s the kind of coffee you can enjoy black, but it also pairs well with milk for a creamy latte or cappuccino. Pros: Fresh, aromatic beans Versatile for different brewing methods Smooth and flavorful profile Good value for the price Cons: My only minor issue was with bean consistency. A few beans were smaller or slightly chipped, which can affect grind uniformity. It didn’t have a major impact on the taste, but it's worth noting for more meticulous coffee enthusiasts. Conclusion: Overall, this is a great everyday coffee for anyone who enjoys a deep, satisfying cup with rich flavor. It may not be a high-end specialty roast, but it easily competes with more expensive brands in terms of taste and aroma. I’ll definitely be ordering it again.
