Fantastic and robust flavor without bitterness. If you have a Dedica, set the machine to a low temperature. The single shot should yield 20-25 grams, the double 35-40 grams. Beyond that, the coffee will turn bitter. In a pressurized basket, do not tamp it too much because it will clog and come out very bitter; a gentle tamp and consistency.

I live this Illy Intenso but the last two cans had no pressure. Is that normal? Usually there is a loud hiss when I open the lid, these last two, none!

In the right machine and/or with the right settings, it produces very nice flavors and aromas for my taste.
Among the strong - intense coffees, I prefer it in the afternoon after a meal, since it feels a bit too strong for me in the morning.
You need to find the right settings for this particular one, otherwise it loses much of its aroma, which does not do it justice.

Perhaps the best ground coffee. Incredible quality, aroma, and taste. Especially at the price of around €6 that we used to get it for until recently, there was no other to compare with it.

For my taste, Intenso is the best of the illy series. In a simple group coffee maker, it came out exactly as I wanted it. It will definitely always be in my house from now on.

In a few words, it doesn't make a good cup of coffee and I have tried several. In order to drink it, you have to add something sweet otherwise it's bitter

Very aromatic coffee. In terms of taste, it is very intense and has a bitter taste without any specific flavor (in a pressurized basket). That's why I bought it, after all, it's called intenso... I give it 3 stars mainly because of the price, as it is not worth 9€.
