Coffee Vs Espresso Beans: What's The Difference? - Tasting Table
Briefly

Most coffee connoisseurs know the difference between drinking a cup of coffee and drinking a shot of espresso, which can be a shock to first-timers.
Espresso beans get roasted considerably longer than standard coffee beans, reaching what's considered a dark or extra dark roast level, enhancing their intense flavor.
The grind of espresso beans is finer compared to coffee beans, contributing to the rich and bold flavor profile of espresso drinks.
A bean is just a bean, until you roast and grind it, highlighting the transformation process that significantly alters its characteristics.
