The PRESSCO Promise: Excellence in Every Pour

At PRESSCO, our commitment to quality transcends mere words. It's embedded in every bean we carefully select and roast in our Carpathian facility. Each coffee single origin in our collection undergoes rigorous quality control measures to ensure an exceptional sensory experience regardless of your preferred brewing method.

Whether you're crafting a silky flat white with delicate microfoam, enjoying the pure expression of an Americano, extracting a syrupy espresso, or exploring the nuanced complexity through manual brewing techniques, our best coffee beans are meticulously calibrated to perform brilliantly across all preparation styles.

As a dedicated coffee roaster with roots in Romania's time-honoured traditions, we've developed roast profiles that maintain perfect balance and structural integrity through various extraction methods. Our coffees are extensively tested with professional equipment similar to those found in specialty coffee shops as well as home brewing devices, ensuring compatibility with all kind of coffee machine configurations. From sophisticated commercial espresso machines and filter brewers to home espresso systems, pour-over devices, French presses, AeroPresses, and traditional moka pots, our coffee delivers remarkable consistency.

While we take exceptional pride in our offerings, please note that optimal results depend on proper brewing parameters. We recommend:

  • Freshly grinding before each preparation
  • Using filtered water at appropriate temperatures (88-96°C depending on method)
  • Adhering to recommended dose-to-yield ratios
  • Maintaining proper extraction times

The PRESSCO team is always available to provide brewing guidance tailored to your specific equipment and preferences. We believe that exceptional coffee creates meaningful moments of connection and discovery, and we're honoured to be part of your daily ritual.
