Just as a chef tries to create synergy (the end product being much better than the sum of its individual parts), so too does a coffee roaster.<\/p>\n<p>Roasters can create blends for complementarity sometimes and at other times to create contrasts \u2013 depending of course on what their wholesale customer may <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-720 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.blendly.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_3216-e1497711982179-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"Coffee Blends vs Single Origins\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_3216-e1497711982179-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/IMG_3216-e1497711982179-768x1024.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/>think their consumers would be interested in drinking. They may find a couple of beans that go really nicely together, such as Ethiopian and Brazilian and another couple that stand in stark contrast with each other such as Sumatran and Kenyan and tailor blends based on those similarities and differences.<\/p>\n<p>What is really interesting about the blending process is that a roaster\u2019s blend may need to change from time to time and the large coffee companies will have cuppers who continually cup their blends to ensure that their integrity of the blend does not change over time. For example the roaster may use a Guatemalan bean from a particular plantation in their signature blend. Over time, the taste of the roasted beans from that plantation may change due to a number of factors: climate change, a change in the way those beans have been fermented, dried or stored or a change in the soil conditions. This in turn will impact on the overall taste of the roaster\u2019s blend. Now the roaster won\u2019t want the overall taste of the blend to change because they <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-725 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.blendly.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/FullSizeRender-300x276.jpg\" alt=\"Coffee Blends vs Single Origins\" width=\"300\" height=\"276\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/FullSizeRender-300x276.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/FullSizeRender-768x706.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/FullSizeRender-1024x941.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>have loyal wholesale customers who like it and they in turn want to keep\u00a0<em>their\u00a0<\/em>paying customers satisfied from week to week. This will mean that the roaster will have to re-assess those Guatemalan beans and either substitute them with something else or change their weighting in the blend.<\/p>\n<p>The golden rule for roasters is to create a flavour profile and be consistent with it.Examples of some blends we have created in the past and which we now use in our training rooms can be found on the blendly.co.uk<\/p>\n<p>Examples of some blends we have created in the past and which we now use in our training rooms can be found on the blendly.co.uk<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>When is Coffee Blended &#8211; Before or after Roasting?<\/strong><\/span><br \/>\nSome argue that blending pre-roasting can achieve a unique coming-together of flavours that cannot be achieved by roasting individual origins then blending. Beans that have been blended before roasting are typically characterised by all being the same colour.<\/p>\n<p>Others argue that you have to maximise the flavour of each origin as they will not all want the same time in the roasting chamber. Beans that have been blended after roasting are typically characterised by being different colours.<\/p>\n<p>Generally, blending post roasting occurs because:<br \/>\n&#8211; A small bean will roast at a different rate to a large bean<br \/>\n&#8211; Beans with different \u201chardness\u201d or density will roast at different rates<br \/>\n&#8211; Beans with different moisture contents will roast at different rates<\/p>\n<p>As past coffee roasters ourselves, to be honest, there is no right answer. Most roasters these days practice both methods depending on which beans they are using.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Single Origins vs Blends &#8211; Which type of coffee is better?<\/strong><br \/>\nPurists would argue that you cannot top a great single origin coffee and that you must be very careful not to destroy the greatness of a coffee by mixing it carelessly with another.<\/p>\n<p>But most coffee companies in\u00a0Australia\u00a0sell blends therefore arguably blends must be better. These companies probably want to offer their wholesale cafe customers and in turn their consumers a complex tasting coffee, giving them more than just one attribute that a single origin may be able to offer them.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>At the end of the day though, nobody can say that one particular coffee is <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft wp-image-781 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/1-e1501163517653-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"Coffee Blends vs Single Origins\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/1-e1501163517653-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/1-e1501163517653-768x433.jpg 768w, https:\/\/blendly.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/1-e1501163517653.jpg 852w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/>better than another or one blend any better than another.
