The Legend
AMANTI Gourmet Coffee is world-class and was selected as one of the best coffees in the world at the European Hostelco exhibition with tastings by the Italian Espresso Institute.
AMANTI Gourmet Coffee, 100% Australian owned and operated, commenced operation in Australia in 1991, and quickly developed a commitment to bring the world's finest gourmet beverages to many coffee, tea and drinking chocolate lovers alike. AMANTI ('lovers' in Italian) ensure that top quality coffees, teas, drinking chocolates and other beverage related products are on the tips of many Australian tongues. The Company has broadened its product range to provide customers with all the support machinery needed to provide your Customers with the best coffee.
Bernard Goston, CEO of AMANTI Gourmet Coffee, adopted his father's dream and vision. This vision, dating back to the 1900s, was to establish the best specialty gourmet roaster and to produce characteristically wonderful European-style coffees, with guaranteed Australian freshness and an unequalled level of service. As his father said - "If you can capture and return the aroma of real coffee in each bean you will set the standard". As a result, Bernard Goston developed the unique Techno-Aromatic® roasting technology.
Proud of their European heritage, the Goston family continue to work hard to bring both perfection and excellence to the market place. Today their coffees are roasted daily on site by the legendary master roaster Guiseppe who has been with AMANTI since he came to Australia from Italy many years ago and brings the old-time tradition and well-mastered methods of roasting coffee beans head-to-head with modern technology. By combining old Italian roasting culture with the space-age AMANTI Techno-Aromatic® technology, AMANTI produces world class coffee flavour, freshness and the unique AMANTI Aroma!
The AMANTI reputation and long history of producing fabulous Super-Gourmet quality coffees, and supplying a huge variety of teas, brilliant drinking chocolates, and Italian-style flavoured syrups, as well as the latest in new-age beverages like Chai and Horchata, has been a huge success in Australia and increasingly world wide.

Chai - Tea gone Latte!
AMANTI Gourmet Coffee brings you a new taste sensation in tea…. Chai.
Chai has become very popular in recent years and is the latest trend in specialty tea beverages. For tea lovers, Chai is now the alternative to lattes and espresso shots.
Chai, meaning tea in many languages is a soothing a delicious beverage that can be consumed hot or cold. Different to other teas on offer, Chai is a milk-based tea. Usually brewed very strong with lots of sugar and milk, traditional Indian Chai combines very black tea that is boiled in milk and flavoured with local spices.
Sweet cinnamon, sharp clove, penetrating cardamom, and occasionally black peppercorns, pungent ginger and hot red chillies are all combined to make up this increasingly popular tea.
AMANTI Gourmet Coffee distribute both tea bagged and powdered Chai tea throughout Australia for many to enjoy the Eastern spicy flavour and aroma that lingers from sip to sip. This is a must try for tea lovers.
Chai Powder:
Available in Vanilla and Spiced, simply add two level tablespoons (30ml) of powdered Chai to hot milk and stir. It's delicious!

AMANTI ESPRESSO UNIVERSITY
An integral part of AMANTI customer service is training to produce the best espresso coffee. The intensive training program is provided free of charge to qualifying customers. The training course covers all aspects of espresso making from setting and tuning of equipment to latte art.
Call 1-800-COFFEE ((1-800-263333) for details
Espresso Making Tips:
1) Start with Freshly Ground Coffee: Grind espresso, as you need it. Never grind more than you need at a time. No matter what kind of coffee is used, this brewing method will produce a rich-textured and heavy-bodied beverage. Traditionally, a coffee roasted dark brown is used. Stale coffee will produce poor shots that lack crema. The best grind for espresso is very fine and gritty, but not a dusty powder.
2) Continually Clean Portafilter Inserts: Ensure the portafilter inserts are completely clean and free of old coffee grinds. Knocking the portafilter against the dump box does not always dislodge all the grinds. It may be necessary to periodically rinse the portafilter inserts with hot water. Just like with brewed coffee, the oily residues can bake on and ruin the quality of future shots.
3) Learn the importance of Filling and Tamping: Dose (pre-determined amount that is delivered with each pull on the espresso grinder) or fill the portafilter basket with the appropriate amount of coffee to the indicated point or to just below the brim. After you have dosed the proper amount of espresso, remember to tamp (or pack) the grinds with solid pressure to ensure proper brewing time. Your goal is to minimize the number of loose grinds on the surface of the portafilter. This can be easily accomplished with a quick wipe across the lip of the portafilter with the palm of your hand.
Portafilter Tamping Tips:
• If the espresso shot is coming out in tiny drops, the coffee is ground too finely or packed too tightly.
• If the espresso shot runs out like gushing water, the coffee is ground too coarsely and not packed properly.
• If the espresso shot is a dribbling, frothy, caramel-coloured brew, both the grind and the tamp are perfect.
4) Monitor Brew Time: For a 20ml shot the best espresso is brewed 20 to 30 seconds from the time the coffee starts pouring. A good Barista checks the shot time at various times during a shift to ensure that it is always of the highest quality.
5) Crema is Essential for Quality: Remember that this is the key to a high quality shot. This caramel-colored froth that appears on top of a shot of espresso during the brewing process helps to seal in the flavours of the espresso. Espresso without crema should be thrown out immediately. Espresso can lack crema for the following reasons: poor quality coffee; stale or pre-ground coffee; lack of tamping; over-extraction; an incorrect grind; or where milk is to be used in conjunction with an espresso, the milk should be steamed before the espresso is brewed. NOTE: It is not uncommon for decaf espresso to have a thinner crema.
