How do I choose the right coffee beans?

Start with how you brew (espresso, filter or plunger) and the flavours you enjoy, then match the roast to that. Our coffee finder does this in four questions and recommends three coffees from the King Carlos Hurstville roastery.

What is the difference between espresso and filter coffee beans?

Espresso roasts are developed for pressure brewing and milk drinks, giving a fuller, sweeter cup. Filter roasts are lighter and cleaner, made to highlight the bean's origin character in black coffee. Many King Carlos coffees suit both.

Does King Carlos Coffee ship Australia-wide?

Yes. King Carlos Coffee Roasters roasts to order in Hurstville NSW and ships freshly roasted beans across Australia. You can also visit the Hurstville roastery and cafe in person.

How fresh is the coffee?

Coffee is roasted to order at the Hurstville roastery and dispatched soon after roasting, so beans arrive fresh. For best flavour, use them within four to six weeks of the roast date.
