❓ Frequently asked questions

Can Lavazza Qualita Rossa be used in office coffee machines?
Yes. Qualita Rossa is widely used in office and commercial bean-to-cup machines. Its rounded, full-bodied profile is suited to a broad range of preferences and delivers consistent results during daily service.

Is Qualita Rossa compatible with bean-to-cup machines?
Yes. These beans are suitable for bean-to-cup and espresso machines, as well as vending machines that accept whole coffee beans. The Arabica and Robusta blend provides a consistent grind, warm golden crema and reliable flavour.

How does Lavazza Qualita Rossa compare with Qualita Oro?
Qualita Rossa is an Arabica and Robusta blend with greater body, dried-fruit and chocolate notes, a warm golden crema and a more pronounced Italian espresso character. Qualita Oro is a medium-roast 100% Arabica blend with floral and fruity notes, a lighter body and a smoother, more delicate taste. Rossa is the fuller and more chocolate-led everyday option.

What is the difference between Qualita Rossa and Lavazza Super Crema?
Both are medium-roast Arabica and Robusta blends, but their flavour profiles differ. Super Crema is a medium-light roast with hazelnut and brown sugar notes, a silky texture and particular suitability for milk-based drinks. Qualita Rossa has a richer, fuller style with dried-fruit and chocolate notes, and works well served black or with milk.

How many drinks can one 1kg bag make?
Allow around 120–140 single coffees from each 1kg bag when using 7g per serving. A kilogram provides approximately 60–70 double-shot coffees.

Which pack sizes are available from Business Beverages?
Lavazza Qualita Rossa Coffee Beans are available as a single 1kg bag or a full case containing 6 x 1kg bags.
