Hello,
the answer to your question can only come from you.
Mal not to mention your personal taste (strong, mild) or the coffee specialty you like best (espresso, cappuccino, etc.).), the same coffee beans from a Bosch in Innsbruck (low water hardness) taste different than those from a Jura in Nuremberg (high water hardness).
In addition to water quality, technical criteria (pressure, temperature, degree of grinding, duration of extraction) are also decisive. With modern fully automatic coffee machines you can influence these to some extent and thus have a significant effect on the taste of the prepared coffee!
The most important recommendation I would like to give you is:
Do not let yourself be seduced by industrial coffee!!
For me, this includes everything you get in supermarkets or discount stores, whether Aldi or Lavazza .
You have to know that these manufacturers are mainly interested in quantity when roasting. In other words, a roasting process in the large plant takes 5 minutes at over 500 degrees. The coffee you buy in the shop has usually been lying around for a long time and lost its aroma.
Really good coffee you can get at the small roaster. Small quantities of approx. 10kg are roasted here. The roasting process takes 20 minutes at a temperature of 200 degrees. The result is that on the one hand aromas come to the fore much more strongly - especially as the roaster is very careful to express the taste qualities of the individual beans perfectly - and on the other hand even Italian roasts (dark and strong) are much more digestible here than the industrial brandy. The reason for this is that the low temperatures produce much less acid.
And you can get a kilo of coffee from as little as 17€!
I recommend that you just try a little. The following small roasters offer tasting packages with different types of coffee. You don't tie 1kg of coffee to your leg, which might not taste good...
Á pros pros 1kg: Even if it is "tempting" for some people to get coffee for 9€/kg, you should be aware that it is the same as with all other cheap food. In Germany, a coffee tax is levied in addition to the sales tax, transport costs and the stock exchange price make the coffee price very transparent. In the end, everyone can decide for themselves what might be in the bag from Aldi...
And if you put a high-quality coffee machine in the kitchen, like you do, the coffee should be appropriate for the machine! You don't tip old frit fat in a Mercedes...

P.s.: I can't resist a comment ;-). The statement "Arabica is a good coffee" is about as meaningful as the answer "Red wine is a good wine"
