Did you drink the right coffee? 8 coffee tips you should know!
Tip 1-One-way exhaust valve, not sniffing hole
Have you all had this experience, when buying coffee beans in the store or supermarket, you can't help but squeeze the packaging with your hand, and then suck at the hole on the coffee bean packaging, squeezing and saying,"Wow ~ this coffee smells good"? We would like to remind you that this is actually a false demonstration and will affect the flavor of coffee beans oh!
Tip 2-Do you want coffee beans in the fridge?
Where do you live when you buy coffee beans or when you haven't finished them? Whose coffee beans live in the fridge? If you still live in the refrigerator, remind you to help Doudou quickly move a new home!
Tip 3: Have you ever had fresh coffee? How long can coffee beans last? Generally speaking, food products will look at the shelf life and taste period. Coffee beans belong to food categories. Some coffee manufacturers use central roasting to mass produce coffee beans. The shelf life is usually between 12 and 18 months, but the shelf life and freshness are two different things. Coffee beans actually need to look at the taste period. The fresher the coffee beans brew, the better the coffee tastes.
Tip 4-Why do coffee make me palpitate and sleep less? In addition to personal constitution, caffeine content has a lot to do with the variety of coffee beans. In general, the cost of Robusta beans is lower than Arabica beans, so most of the canned coffee on the market will choose or mix Robusta beans, but those who are worried about excessive caffeine should pay attention ~ Robusta beans are cheap, but the caffeine content is three times that of Arabica beans! Therefore, people who are worried about drinking coffee will not sleep, will palpitate, in addition to selecting high-quality Arabica coffee, but also remind you that coffee powder soaked in water for too long, coffee powder is too fine, will also extract excessive caffeine oh!
Tip 5-How many beans does it take to make a cup of coffee?
Tip 6-How do you like your coffee? Coffee beans themselves are fruits that grow on trees. Just like fruits, they will have fruit acid flavor. A cup of fresh and properly roasted good coffee will have a rich and balanced sense of acidity, sweetness and bitterness.
Tip 7-Brew the best flavor: Roast and water temperature When brewing coffee, the temperature of the hot water should be changed depending on the extraction tool used and the roasting degree of the coffee, so that you can drink the best flavor of each coffee bean!
Tip 8-Good freshness of hand grinding: Master the grinding thickness as long as you master one principle: "The longer the brewing time, the coarser the coffee powder; the shorter the brewing time, the finer the coffee", so that you can avoid the coffee powder is too coarse and the result is no taste; the grinding is too fine, and the result is too much impurity and caffeine.
