Classification of coffee drinks

If you want to understand coffee drinks, you must first classify coffee drinks properly. In order to better understand these coffee drinks, and their extraction principles and production techniques.

First of all, it needs to be explained that some people may have different views or practices on classification. However, in principle, the classification method is only a means, and there is no difference between right and wrong; whether it is convenient or not is conducive to understanding and analyzing the problem of the object being studied. So which classification is more suitable depends on the individual's understanding.

We divide all coffee drinks into three categories

Basic coffee

The coffee produced by directly grinding the coffee beans into coffee powder and using appropriate tools is the basic coffee.

Fancy Coffee

In the basic coffee, fancy coffee is made by adding certain ingredients or after a certain preparation.

Iced coffee

Similar to fancy coffee, but made into a "cold" coffee drink.
