The I.XXI coffee journey:
If you are purchasing a bag of whole bean coffee on our website, you can select your grind method of choice (at no extra charge!) from the dropdown and we will grind and ship it to you. We grind the beans freshly for you at our warehouse in ECS Coffee Burlington right before your order is shipped, and reseal the package to maintain optimal freshness in transit.
If you are visiting us in store, you can also request for your beans to be ground in store before you take them home.
We use a commercial BUNN Burr Grinder to grind the beans.
Please note: Freshly ground coffee is non-refundable and not returnable. To ensure that you receive a ground coffee that is consistent with your brew method of choice, refer to our Grind Chart below!
FINE |
For use with espresso machines. Fine coffee grinds will have the size and feel of sand. |
MEDIUM FINE |
Choose a medium fine grind if you are brewing with a Moka Pot, stovetop espresso brewers or an Aeropress. |
MEDIUM |
Cone Filter - We use two medium settings depending on your brewer. The Cone Filter medium setting is a bit finer, and is suitable for pour-over drip brewers (cone style) such as Hario, Melitta, Clever. It is also used for cone style automatic brewers. Flat Bottom Filter - This setting is suitable for coffee machines with a flat bottom basket filter, such as commercial automatic drip machines. It is also an appropriate setting for if you have a refillable coffee capsule for use in Keurig® machines. Medium coffee grinds will be around the same size as sea salt. |
PERCOLATOR |
If you are brewing with a percolator, the grind setting is a bit coarser than your standard medium grind, to minimize grinds making it through the filter. We use a percolator-specific setting on our grinder. |
MEDIUM COARSE |
Vaccuum brewers, Chemex. |
COARSE |
For french press, cold brew coffee. A coarse grind is very chunky in look, like crushed peppercorns. |

Easy to dial in, with a robust flavour but incredibly well balanced. Working great as straight shots or in lattes. Solid value.
A friend recommended these beans and once I tried them, I understood why. These were super fresh (roasted the day before I picked them up). It produced a great extraction for espresso shots and a good crema. I used to buy old beans from Costco but I definitely can taste the difference in quality.
Not my fave but with so many choices and blends I’m sure most will enjoy it. I’m a bit of a coffee snob, I prefer a richer, darker bean but as it was included with my purchase, a great deal!
Been buying this since last year! My wife and I drink a lot of coffee and the 2lb bag is a godsend. Love the overall taste and the crema is amazing. I really wish ECS starts selling 2lb bags of the great scott. Bought that before the crema of that since its robusta beans is unbeatable. Will keep buying the 88MPH
I received this with a starter pack that came with the tool kit. What a great way to try new beans that you don't have to go broke trying out. The 88's were very nice beans and make an excellent espresso. Highly recommend these 88's!
Excellent coffee. The tasting note that stood out to me was "velvety", and that's the best way to describe it. Rich, smooth, and incredibly satisfying. I'll definitely be ordering this one again.
I tried this blend for the first time and was impressed. Nice flavour and aroma, will buy again
It is our new favourite espresso bean!
Lovely beans, well roasted and forgiving in the dialing in process!
Would Buy again
This is our go-to and does not disappoint!
Great coffee ! Works great for any type of brew
Using it in my Delonghi Rivelia and it makes great espresso and Flat Whites
My husband and i love this coffee. We use it with our Primadonna Aromatic. It’s very smooth. It isnt botter or acodoc. Love it!
88 MPH Espresso nice coffee beans.
Great versatile beans. Goes well with milk drinks and straight espressos
Full body
We love this coffee! It’s our favourite now.
The flavor is straightforward and enjoyable, with no overpowering bitterness or sharp acidity. It’s smooth, well-balanced, and easy to drink, great for everyday coffee.
Large package, taste is simple and nice not too bitter and not too acidic just right
Fantastic price for really good strong beans
Fantastic Blend
I’ve tried every I.XXI so far, they are all excellent, but the 88 MPH has become our go-to beans for the best Americano
Best coffee around
Beans are very fresh and tasty. I wish it produced a less tart espresso, but with some adjustments to my brewing method I was able to enjoy it.
Love this bean. It’s a go to.
Just a fantastic roast overall. A premium bean at a very affordable price point. The benefit of buying local, in-house!
Great espresso. Has a velvety feel when brewed as an espresso. Okay as a pour over, but good if you like a straight forward flavour profile.
great Go to bean
Tastes great with our new Lelit machine
