Caffè Borbone Miscela Decisa Ground Coffee 2x250 g
Caffè Borbone Miscela Decisa is an intense, full-bodied ground coffee for moka pots and espresso machines, roasted in Italy and supplied in a twin-pack of 2x250 g (500 g net) fitted with an aroma-protection valve. The blend delivers a strong cup with a persistent crema and a bold aftertaste, in the tradition of Neapolitan coffee. Each case holds 8 twin-packs, ideal for high-rotation food-service use.
The Caffè Borbone roaster
Caffè Borbone is one of Italy's best-known coffee brands, based in the Naples area, where the espresso culture is part of daily life. The company has built its reputation on consistent, accessible blends roasted in Italy. The Miscela Decisa is its boldest everyday reference: a recipe built for body, intensity and a thick, lasting crema rather than light acidity.
Flavour profile
Decisa means decisive, and the cup lives up to the name: dense body, low acidity, dark-chocolate and toasted notes, and a long, slightly bitter finish typical of southern-Italian roasting. It is the profile most guests recognise as a classic Italian bar espresso, which makes it a safe house blend for venues that serve a broad clientele.
Professional uses
- Bar espresso: about 7 g per single shot, water at 90-92 degrees C, 25-30 second extraction for a dense, creamy cup.
- Moka pot: fill the basket without pressing, low heat, for a strong home-style coffee at the table.
- Coffee base for milk drinks: the bold body holds up under steamed milk for cappuccino and latte macchiato.
- Affogato and dessert coffee: the intense finish pairs well with vanilla gelato and pastry service.
- Iced coffee: the strong extraction keeps character when poured over ice or shaken.
Storage and freshness
Store in a cool, dry place away from heat, light and strong odours. The aroma-protection valve lets roasting gases escape while keeping oxygen out, so the unopened pack stays fresh. Once opened, reseal the pack tightly and use within a few days; ground coffee loses aroma faster than beans, so buy in line with turnover.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Tamping moka coffee: never press the grounds in a moka basket, it over-extracts and turns the cup bitter.
- Boiling water: water above 96 degrees C scorches the grounds; keep it below boiling.
- Leaving the pack open: exposed ground coffee goes flat within days, always reseal.
