## Questions & Answers

**Q: I ordered the espresso preparation coffee and was sent the filter coffee preparation variety instead. Can I still use this in my espresso machine?**
A: Hi the same thing happened to us...no don’t use it it clogged up my machine, if I hadn’t noticed it I think it would have broken it!

**Q: Should there be a plastic cap/lid because after opening via pull ring there isn't any means of securing tin other than putting into another container**
A: Yes, in my experience it should have screw on lid, the same silver coloured metal as the tin. Just as shown on the site page.

**Q: Is this coffee for cafetières and a travel French press?**
A: I use it in my batista. Its ground coffee?

**Q: Can I use this coffee  in the filter machine?**
A: You can, but it's a very fine grind.  You would be better advised to use the can with the filter machine picture bottom centre instead of this one which has the picture of an espresso cup.
It's the same coffee, just a slightly coarser grind

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fresh good coffee

Love the taste of this coffee and price is always very competitive with big supermarkets. Smells so fresh. Ring pull seal assures freshness

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good aroma, great taste and the perfect grind for espresso machines.
*by T***E on 29 January 2026*

A great decaf ground coffee for espresso machines! I have a bean-to-cup espresso machine, so it's a bit of a pain swapping out the beans to make a cup of decaf, but this works a treat. Good aroma, great taste and the perfect grind for espresso machines.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Quite A Good Decaf
*by T***R on 29 October 2025*

I decided to try this illy coffee because I wanted a cup that still felt rich and full bodied even though it’s caffeine free. The 250g tin is a handy size and knowing it’s made from 100 percent Arabica beans and a medium roast gave me hope for something decent. The first few brews hit nicely smooth rounded flavour with hints of caramel and a clean finish that left nothing bitter in the cup. The taste profile includes caramel, chocolate and toasted bread with a sweet aftertaste and on my espresso machine that came through quite well. What I particularly liked is that it gave me something closer to proper coffee even though it’s decaf. It held up well as a plain espresso and felt just right when I had it with a splash of milk. On the other hand it’s not completely flawless. If you compare it side by side with a freshly roasted caffeinated specialty bean you will notice it lacks a little of the brightness or depth you sometimes get with premium roasts. Also because it comes pre ground, it doesn’t give you the same freshness you’d get by grinding beans yourself. That being said for the convenience and quality you’re getting, I think it delivers very well and would recommend this.
