FAQs
Everything you need to know about Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Balls, from how they work and what they’re made of to certification and flavour.
What do the Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Balls taste like?
Bold and full-bodied, with a smooth texture and deep roasted character. Expect rich notes of dark chocolate and sweet caramel, finished with a subtle crack of black pepper.
Do I need a CoffeeB machine to use Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Balls?
Yes. Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Balls are designed specifically for CoffeeB machines, including the CoffeeB Cosmos.
The system uses a unique extraction process rather than a conventional pod or capsule, so Coffee Balls can’t be used in standard single-serve coffee machines. Likewise, CoffeeB machines aren’t designed to use other single-serve coffee formats.
What is the Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Ball made of?
Each Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Ball contains a blend of Arabica and Robusta ground coffee, pressed together and protected by a micro-thin, plant-based layer. This helps preserve the coffee’s freshness and aroma until you’re ready to brew.
After brewing, once the coffee has been extracted, you’ll see the Coffee Ball soften and change in texture.
How do Coffee Balls work?
Simply place your Coffee Ball of choice into your CoffeeB machine and brew. The machine extracts the coffee directly from the Coffee Ball, with no conventional aluminium or plastic capsule required.
What happens to a Coffee Ball after brewing?
Once brewed, the Coffee Ball is fully compostable and can break down naturally in as little as 4 to 12 weeks. You can add the spent balls straight to your garden compost heap, place it in a suitable composting bin, or dispose of it through your local council’s food waste collection where accepted.
Spent coffee grounds can be very useful in the garden, but they are not suitable for every plant or soil type. It is worth checking how best to use them for the specific plants you have in mind before adding them directly. Check out our top tips for getting even more from your used Coffee Balls.
How many Coffee Balls are in a Café Royal Lungo Forte pack?
Each box of Café Royal Espresso contains 9 Coffee Balls. You can buy them in packs of 5 or 10 boxes, giving you 45 or 90 Coffee Balls in total.
Are Café Royal Lungo Forte Coffee Balls Rainforest Alliance Certified?
Yes. All CoffeeB's Café Royal Coffee Ball Blends are made with 100% Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee.
That means the coffee is sourced from farms that meet Rainforest Alliance standards for more sustainable farming practices, environmental protection and working conditions.
