Roasting: Because coffee beans can only be kept fresh for 1 to 7 days after roasting, they will begin to taste, leaving only bitterness and no mellow taste. So, roasting yourself ensures the freshness of the coffee beans.

Traditional roasters are roller type, which has the characteristics of stewing, which will make the coffee beans older and taste fuller. The household roaster can roast half a pound of coffee beans at a time. The roasting time (including cooling and beans) takes about 21~25 minutes. If you want to roast deeply, just increase the time. When using, just put in the raw beans, set the baking degree, press the start button, from baking to cooling, the baking machine can be automatically completed.

Grind: Coffee makes the ultimate sacrifice in order to blend with water-crushing. Coffee before brewing, be sure to grind the beans into fine particles, increase the contact area between water and coffee, in order to extract delicious. In fact, the grinder is more important than the coffee machine, and most people now choose the "saw-tooth grinder" because it can quickly and stably grind a uniform coffee powder. The operation method of the saw-tooth grinder is very simple. Generally speaking, it has two setting functions, one is to set the grinding degree, and the other is to set the grinding time. Abrasion is mostly represented by Arabic numerals, the smaller the number, the finer the grinding. Above the grinder was a hopper containing unground beans, and below it was a drawer for ground coffee. When choosing to buy a bean grinder, you should pay attention to its power, usually between 70 watts and 150 watts, the higher the better, the higher the power of the bean grinder, the faster the grinding speed, the shorter the time for the coffee powder to stay between the serrations, and the more able to grind out low temperature coffee powder.

Brewing: To brew a good cup of coffee, in addition to fresh coffee powder and slightly harder water, of course, there must be a handy brewing tool. There are three main types of coffee brewing machines commonly used.

Drip filter: wet coffee powder with water, let coffee liquid to fall naturally through the filter cloth or filter paper speed, flow to the container. Basically, this method does not soak the coffee powder, just let the hot water slowly pass through the coffee powder. Drip cups and electric coffee machines belong to this category, is the simplest brewing tool, can brew clean and bright color coffee. Follicular: coffee powder into the pot, soaked in hot water for a few minutes, and then filtered by filter cloth or filter to form a cup of coffee liquid.

Siphon pot, drip pot, Belgian coffee pot and Vietnamese coffee pot, etc., all belong to follicular brewing tools, they all have a soaking process, thus forming a more complex taste.

High-pressure coffee: Pressurized hot water is used to penetrate the compacted coffee powder to produce a thick cup of coffee. Tools in this form include mocha pots and espresso machines.

Fast brewing method: can use Italian espresso machine, faster coffee brewing method. Espresso machine can continuously extract several cups of coffee, the high pressure in the boiling process can dissolve the oil and colloid in the coffee beans, the essence of the beans is completely extracted through pressure, making the brewed coffee more concentrated, taste and aroma better.
