Are these on the oily side? Especially the dark roasts?

Heads up: the OP is ground coffee. Whole bean is also available (individual or varieties) but not at discounted price.

Decaf kills the deal for me.
Or is this just conditioning?
To be honest, I've never really given it a try.
My cult believes that coffee = caffeine

For the last few years, I've also fallen into the Espresso machine rabbit hole (though nowhere near as far as others), and have completely walked away from both drip and preground coffee. I'm still pretty lazy, and have not really read up much on distinctions, such as knowing what is better as drip, and what is better for an espresso machine. Ultimately, I think I just love the convenience of making a cup on demand with an espresso machine, VS making a large pot. Also, frothed milk rules.

I am curious - for those interested here, are you strictly drip, or are you multi talented coffee connoisseurs?

I've tried 3 in the past and was not a fan. I find their roasts darker than other similarly labelled coffee. Light roast is closer to medium, and medium is darker than normal.

Some people buy blindly, so making sure they know what they are getting

Tried the espresso beans once - oily and not good-tasting at all. First and last-time purchase.

I buy the orange bag regularly and it's excellent. Bought the blue bag Corposo or whatever it's called and it was good but nothing special. Didn't bother trying the espresso beans.
In comparison to the level ground I bought last week..... Level ground coffee (Ethiopia) is a huge disappointment. Avoid it.

If you like full flavour strong coffee, you can't go wrong trying this 6 bag mix.

The Sumatra is the orange bag and we have been drinking it for years. We also tried the Corposo and found it a little too dark for our tastes. Not knowing what to do with the large bag of the Corposo beans we decided to mix them with the Sumatra beans. It is a delicious blend. The Corposo kicks up the flavour and the Sumatra mellows it out. That's all we do now. We pick up the Sumatra at the warehouse and get the Corposo on sale online.
