This is most terrible coffee ever purchased, won’t buy it again, the espresso made is so watery, taste like xx.. put it into trash bin straight away

have just bought a Barista express 780. just before the lock down. on the thinking i will have time to master a good coffee from the machine. with different coffee beans i set to work.It took a week and a lot of shots, but i did crack pulling shots the best with vittoria. to my surprise i drink three coffee's a day, but now just one a day through the sanctification this coffee gives me. It did take a lot to fine tune the mix, but every time shots pulled come out just the colour of honey, did study all the utube videos many times, very helpful people on there. I do enjoy this coffee bean. All the best to you all.

I searched looking to learn if others have had the same problem as me - looks like it is a common problem; you cannot grind fine enough. I spent less on Woolies brand beans and got a better extraction and taste. With vittoria bitter I have my breville burr grinder down to the finest setting (1; where most other beans I've tried work at around 5-7). The shot pulls way too fast and tastes terribly sour. I've tried tamping super hard and to no avail. Would not recommend this coffee for espresso at all - if you want cheaper beans your better off sticking with the woolies own brand beans

My poor mother was trying to be helpful and bought us a bag of these beans. I wish I’d trusted my instincts and bought our local beans as a backup. I must have poured 20 shots down the sink before I gave up trying to get an extraction. It’s just UNUSABE for espresso. There are simply no grind settings or degree of compaction to compensate for the lack of oils in the beans.

No oils in beans. Expect to grind FAR finer than fresh we’ll roasted beans. My burr grinder cannot grind fine enough to get good extraction. I don’t love pods, but seriously, I get better extractions from Nespresso.

I have been using their coffee for over 7 years, just purchased a new batch and its taste crap and not like the other batches, I'm using an Original Vittoria Cafetera for the last 10 years, and never had any issues I even cleaned it out which your are not suppose to do, and still the taste is crap. What have they Done to this coffee. Vittoria what goes on?

Seems like reviewers come here only to complain wheather they dont know how to use/dial in their machine or their machine is stuffed? I have so much pressure using these beans that i have dialed back my machine to the 12th finest grind setting (ie; Coarse) I have not over tamped either, just a little push. My Breville 870 produces amazing golden Crema and taste very smooth, no bitter aftertaste. I would rate this roast as strong Medium body and doesnt have the intesity of the Mountain or Nero roast (my preferred). FYI anyone using a Breville will need to retune your grind setting when swapping between the single and double shot. Double needs a way finer grind.

To those who condemn this Brand - I suggest they get help on YouTube and make sure they do research on what is the best way to make it.
I’ve been using Vitoria Expresso for over 20yrs with a little Breville Expresso Machine recommended by Choice. AUS$120 from Their Factory Seconds store in ULTIMO Sydney ... (A tear in the outside packaging). Makes great crema.

Was sceptical about buying Vittoria and should have listened to my intuition. Worst coffee I've EVER had the displeasure to consume. Coles and Woolworths would do a service to stop carrying this garbage.
Could NOT get any pressure no matter what I did and as for a decent crema?.........gave up after about 15 attempts.
Only thing left to say is that there's a lot of easily pleased coffee drinkers out there if this is still on supermarket shelves!

tried so many times with 1.5kg espresso beans and it just won't make a good coffee.....need help getting it right please

Stopped using a couple of years ago because of poor taste. Recently went to a local watering hole where their Baristas use it. It was pretty ordinary. That reinforced in my mind why I don't buy it anymore.

Bought at Coles . There are 4 small packings in all. Tried 2 of them and happy with the taste. The other 2 were terrible.Exactly same amount and way of making them. Makes me wonder if they are from the same lots of grounded coffee beans at all. VERY suspicious. Anyway,won't buy them again even at half price.

Bought 3 200g packets of Vittoria Beans for $9.98 each. Tried to extract an espresso shot failing every time. Made at least 30 cups and not a single cup made crema or achieved espresso extraction pressure! Shot ran too quick or burnt if too fine. Tried every grind setting on the grinder!!! At this stage i was convinced my machine was broken. Found packets on the shelf at the supermarket expired 2015. That was 2 years ago!! I made sure the 3 bags that i bought weren't expired. They were due to expire next year. Extremely disappointed with these beans. Will never ever use them again.

No matter how u grind it it won't get there but the organic blend was a bitter version of the same S...

Terrible taste, this was disappointing, bitter, no aroma and flavourless. I can't bring myself to use it even for camping coffee!

This this the first time I tried Vittoria coffee beans 1kg from Woolworths $15 ( on sale), and it will be the last time. The beans were burnt, inconsistent​, bitterness, tasteless. It doesn't even worth$15.

I have been drinking vittoria coffee ☕️ for around 20 years I'm a self confessed coffee addict my day starts with vittoria and ends with it.. full flavour and so smooth nothing else is quite like it..try it you'll taste what I mean..

I have used various quality coffees in my Delonghi machine and had some very good results from Illy and Lavazza and other pre-grounds from the supermarket. I have only managed to get very weak, tasteless "brown water" from using the Vittoria pre-ground... bought a big bag and now im at a point where I may just end up wasting half of it.
