“Does this coffee brand offer a grind suitable for an espresso machine, and can its support team help if my shots are running too fast?”
… the specific coffee brand you are looking at! To give you a precise answer, here is how most specialty coffee brands handle these two things: - Espresso Grind Suitability: Many brands offer a "fine" or "espresso" grind option, while others (like Grind Coffee House Blend on Ocado ) specifically grind for cafetière, filter, or stovetop (moka pot) rather than a pressurized pump espresso machine, which requires a very precise, ultra-fine grind. Pre-ground coffee can also be tricky for traditional espresso machines because you cannot adjust the particle size if the flow rate isn't …

“What does “speciality coffee” actually mean, and how is it different from ordinary coffee?”
Speciality coffee is coffee selected for its distinctive quality, flavour and character, rather than simply being produced in large quantities at a consistent price. It’s not just a fancy name for expensive coffee: it reflects the quality of the beans and the care taken to grow, process, roast and brew them. The Specialty Coffee Association \(SCA), the main industry body for coffee standards, now defines speciality coffee more broadly, taking into account both its sensory qualities and factors such as where it comes from and how it is produced. …
