## Questions & Answers

**Q: Can it be used in a cafeteria**
A: It’s not the right grind. Illy do a specific cafetière grind. If you look on the espresso tin you’ll see an image of an espresso cup: the cafetière specific grind has am image of a cafetière instead of an espresso cup. Hope this helps. Happy Christmas.

**Q: Why is there a bulge and tin distortion on the bottom of some cans? How does this effect the coffee?**
A: Nope.

**Q: What are the animal ingredients or processes that mean this coffee is vegetarian and not vegan?**
A: Mmmm not sure and it's just coffee beans  bit I would imagine that an animal probably a donkey was used in the field to load the raw beans onto. Hence not vegan.

**Q: Suitable for an Italian stovetop coffee maker?**
A: Yes, it will have a slightly scorched flavour, but any coffee will if it’s made on the stove. I use Illy in a Gaggia espresso machine at home, but when we are camping in the summer, I use it on the stove. Takes a day or two to get used to the change but it’s really fine.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fresh good coffee

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent flavor and aroma with right amount of caffeine
*by A***R on 1 February 2026*

An excellent taste and aroma, right and not excessive caffeine content, excellent value for money

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 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.
