Omni Roast Coffee

Gallagherone

Hi friends,

Has anyone here tried Omi Roasted Coffee before? Basically coffee that isn't specifically roasted for one type of brewing? I drink both espresso and V60 at home and currently haven't found a good blend that does them both well. Currently I'm using quite a dark roast which is great for espresso, and alright for V60 but it could taste so much better.

I know that I could just focus on one method of brewing more than the other, but I prefer black coffee brewed with a V60 whereas the wife prefers latte's with syrups.

I've only come across omni roast recently after a friend recommended it? Has anyone tried it and had good success?

It can be good, can be awful. What coffee did you have in mind?

How dark roast are you, what grinder do you use, what flavours do you enjoy? 

I generally like v60s on the more balanced, acidic, fruity, funky, floral flavours - Ethiopians, Guatemalans etc. For espresso, I liked a more chocolatey or fudge flavour - Colombian el suarez if single origin, but often I liked rave fudge blend. 

The rave Colombian is available as both a filter blend and espresso blend, so you could subscribe to get both and enjoy a cherry-cocoa filter with a more cocoa focused espresso from two different roast levels.

Just noticed you said latte with syrup - coffee won't matter tbh, just get a cheap coffee like lavazza or illy for espresso, and enjoy yourself a range of nice single origins for filter

Syrup in coffee?
I'm outraged!
