I'm going to Aldi. What coffee beans should I get for my plunger?
If it helps I like strong cappuccinos and I use the #13 calabrese pods for my Aldi pod machine because the #14 intensio is disgusting.
Any of the South American ones. Brazil, Colombia or the special blend. Essentially any of the 1 kg bean bags are good value for money, not the dark roasts though.
Got it.
Yep I recommend the South American 1kg beans. They have a โluxeโ special version in a purple bag right now which is good but not as nice as the Brazil that I usually choose. The roasting date is printed backwards on the side of the packet under the used by date.
Good to know. I shall experiment. Thank you.
