For peak flavour, if you are looking to use immediately, we recommend purchasing the rested beans. If you are adding to your rotation of beans, we recommend purchasing the standard and allowing the beans to naturally rest and mature whilst you rotate through other beans.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat does 'Filter' or 'Espresso' Roast mean?\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003eTypically filter is roasted lighter than espresso, though this is not always the case.
