Been looking for feedback and reviews on this mag! I'm from the Philippines and I was scared about shipping. If it took ages going to US then I would guess it will take millennia to arrive here.
@@CoffeewithKartikay Thanks for the response! Makes me wonder if they just get a 2 or 5 lb bag from the roaster and split them into 30g bags. At least you get to try one serving :-)
I really enjoy your videos. You have a great “relaxed” style. One things been bothering me tho: where in the world are you based? You moan about the shipping time outside Europe, some I’m guessing India or the US?
genuinely interesting video clips . nescafe instant espresso is 100 % arabica. italian coffee blends typically combine both arabica and robusta beans. arabica is merely a buzzword and is definitely not assurance of quality coffee .
As in, I always thought Arabicas were always better than Robustas, but that's not always true. Great coffee farmed and roasted with great care will always shine!
@@CoffeewithKartikay if an arabica bean is of good quality and is properly handled throughout it's journey from the moment it's picked until it makes it's way into your grinder......then it's a safe bet. though , arabica beans come in a variety of quality and grades . i saw one italian documentary which showed that sacks of coffee beans contained mold and were still destined for consumption ...

Haha! I feel your pain. I still recommend it though: can't wait for my next delivery!
Is the coffee that's included always just 30g? Thanks for the video, BTW
Yeah! I've received four magazines now each with a small teeny amount of coffee. One and a half espressos!

Aww, thanks man. I'm in the US, and this magazine took like a month and a half to arrive. Insanely slow! 😁

Exactly! It's fun breaking down our own biases!
@@CoffeewithKartikay hmm.....not sure i understand what you mean.
