Coffee Bean Quality and Price

Millions drink espresso drinks daily, but only a very small percentage of those consumers understand about coffee bean quality and how it affects the price of that espresso you drink daily.

When it comes to crafting the perfect shot of espresso, the quality of the coffee beans plays an essential role in determining the final flavor and cost. Even the slightest variation in sourcing and processing methods impacts the overall taste and price.

As you explore the world of espresso, you'll notice that high-quality coffee beans command higher prices due to their unique characteristics and sourcing methods. Specialty coffee beans, sourced from specific regions and undergoing rigorous grading, can cost considerably more than commodity beans, directly affecting the price of your espresso shot.

The average cost per pound of high-quality coffee beans, nationally, can range from $12 to $20, compared to lower quality beans priced around $5 to $10 per pound. But coffee bean quality isn't just about the type of bean; processing methods and roast levels also play a vital role in enhancing or diminishing flavor profiles in espresso.
