The Best Coffee Blends and Grounds for Coffee Mochi
Choosing the right coffee blend or ground for your coffee mochi is crucial for getting the perfect taste. For a bold and rich flavor, choose a dark roast coffee blend, such as French or Italian roast. Medium roast coffee blends, such as Colombian or Sumatra, can also work well. If you prefer a milder flavor, opt for a light roast blend, such as Breakfast or City roast. When it comes to the grind, a medium grind is ideal for making coffee mochi. A coarse grind may result in a gritty texture, while a fine grind may make the coffee too strong.
