Two major groups of coffee lovers

Non-coffee drinkers describe coffee as a black bitter medicine, thinking that it will cause allergies and palpitations in the body and dare not drink it, and even produce sleep disorders and don't drink it after noon. This is the most common argument heard.

Coffee lovers can be divided into two categories: the faithful of the original black coffee, who prefer the aroma in the hot air, which attracts people to enjoy a cup quickly, the infiltration of coffee juice between lips and teeth, and the sweetness from the upper layer of the tongue to the base of the tongue, which is better than tea. A good cup of coffee mellow, sweet, let people drink about five mouthfuls, still want to refill the cup. Usually, the author would suggest drinking boiled water to moisturize the mouth before drinking coffee, and then drink water after drinking three cups of basic consumption. At this time, the taste buds are sweet, making people feel as sweet as sweet springs. The focal point of drinking coffee is the grease in the middle and upper layer of the coffee cup. When the thickness is enough, the taste buds plus the sense of smell enjoy, which makes people memorable and hard to let go.

Another group of coffee lovers only drink with sweeteners such as sugar. Taiwan's understanding of coffee is mostly with sugar, cream, cream balls, or fresh milk. The majority of people have this habit, because adding sugar covers the bitterness, adding cream to increase aroma, cream ball oil can keep warm, and adding fresh milk is delicious and nutritious, but is this really the case? Let's think about it. When we look back and examine it carefully, we will find that this kind of additives have made coffee lose its original fragrance, strong, mellow and sweet enjoyment. Should you know the correct way to drink coffee?

The off-flavor coffee trend in Taiwan

I used to be a teacher at the ministerial level. Before drinking espresso, I asked if it tasted good. Can't you sleep? It turned out to be a good night's sleep the next day. Over the years, many visitors are afraid of not sleeping well, and some people doze off after the second cup, and it is clear that good coffee is to make people sleep well.

Enjoy a cup of coffee from the coffee history to understand, gradually the real feeling, do not learn from others to a cup of well-known brand coffee to follow the fashion, so that you can not drink the classic coffee, high price is not equal to quality, beauty is not necessarily healthy.

Popular drinks in Taiwan are cheaper than large cups, but water and sugar are not expensive. Today, Taiwan's coffee culture is also under the influence of competition from shops and the lack of coffee culture. It is actually an increase in the amount of water added after cooking. But is that still coffee? So how much is the real amount of coffee? The latte with milk is 250 ∼ 350C.C, the American coffee is 200 ∼ 240C.C., the meaning is 150C.C. About, and Espresso is 70 ∼ 100C.C., if iced coffee is not necessarily, the original ice drop with ice 200C.C., let cool through the summer, and add fresh milk foam or milkshake iced coffee about 300C.C. As for a cup of hot coffee to take out, if it gets cold, the coffee must be tasteless, so you can make the coffee in advance and freeze it, and then heat it when you have time to drink it.

I would like to share with you that at present, many sugars on the market are refined sugars, which are the best food for cancer cells, and too much sugar causes excessive calorie intake; cream and cream balls cannot find any real milk, and only trans fats are detected. Although they are often kicked and exploded by the media, people are always forgetful. Recent research reports abroad have pointed out that sugar is a carcinogen and is closely related to chronic diseases.

Good coffee: no palpitations, can sleep well

In general, after roasting, the grain is slightly bitter, while caffeine is colorless, tasteless and slightly bitter, mainly because the chlorogenic acid in the coffee is roasted to produce slightly bitter chlorogenic acid lactone. Therefore, coffee juice will be bitter normal ingredients, but coffee beans in the process of baking caramelization, fruit acid conversion and carbohydrate addition can only be fully manifested in the original flavor.

To put it simply, a good cup of coffee cannot cause palpitations; no matter how late it is, it will not affect your sleep, and it should be able to sleep comfortably; it should be sweet and sweet without adding any sweet and spice additives. Coffee will never harm the stomach or cause excessive acid in the stomach; and it can accelerate gastrointestinal peristalsis and easily discharge a large number of stools.

To be healthy, it's not just about the taste.

Many people reject black coffee and find it bitter. How can it be delicious? The author's father is one of them, saying that it is traditional Chinese medicine, bitter! I don't drink. However, at Weng's kind invitation, I was embarrassed not to drink, and no matter how bitter I was, I had a drink. Slowly as time went by, I found that he could drink as much as three cups. I asked him if he would suffer. He said no! Why is there so much difference? Because he knows that the first bite will taste better and better, and finally he will enjoy the taste of throat rhyme. Sometimes he will even say give me a cup of coffee. It turns out that he is also obsessed with coffee.

If you have friends around you who drink a lot of coffee every day, and add sweeteners, if you don't drink, you will have no energy and can not have a good rest, it is already an addictive tendency. There are many examples of excessive sugar content caused by a large amount of sweet coffee, resulting in a blood sugar imbalance. It was not until one day that the doctor warned him to add xylitol, which is used by diabetics to replace sucrose, when drinking coffee. Its sweetness is close to that of sucrose, and its calorie is about 60% of sucrose.

Xylitol is extracted from plants such as Betula platyphylla, corn, or raspberry and then reduced by hydrogenation. Although insulin is not needed to decompose at the initial stage, long-term consumption will still cause insulin burden and lead to an increase in blood sugar. Of course, there have also been reports of negative analysis of xylitol. In fact, xylitol hydrogenation has a negative hydrogenation effect. Therefore, friends are advised, in any case, to try black coffee after slightly bitter, adjust your taste buds, and choose healthy coffee.

Although the author vigorously promotes the health theory of black coffee, not every cup of black coffee is a good coffee, the quality of beans, coupled with physical tolerance and other factors, may make people uncomfortable. If there is something wrong with you after drinking coffee, you should stop drinking it and drink more water for metabolism. But if the first bitter taste, so that you can not help but add sweeteners, then the worst coffee will be covered by sweeteners, and unwittingly harm the body. Just like when the chef cooks, you will feel thirsty immediately after eating because of the lack of fresh flavor of the dishes.

But what we want is health, not just taste.

Keep fresh and store, simple and skimming

Many people will ask how the coffee beans are kept fresh, but it is actually very simple: first, look at the baking date clearly and record that it is fresh within three months; the packaging is sealed and opaque; it is not close to the heat source and stored at room temperature and cannot be stored in the refrigerator, because every time it is taken out of the refrigerator and opened, because of the high temperature difference, the bag will immediately be covered with condensed moisture, and the beans will not be fresh if you increase the humidity again and again. The author has done an experiment: compared with the refrigerator stored at room temperature for one to two months, the fragrance of beans remains strong at room temperature, while the aroma of iced coffee is faint. In general, coffee beans breathe, while beans contain oil. If the beans are frozen or refrigerated, the oil in the beans will be frozen and unable to breathe, resulting in the loss of flavor.

Sealed small packages to keep fresh

Coffee beans should be packed in small packages, stored in sealed bags or cans, and soaked fresh as soon as possible, but we often see people buy large packages at low prices and save money, and it takes a long time to finish, which is no longer fresh. Large bags are often opened to come into contact with the air, allowing bacterial spores to run into the coffee bag, reducing the freshness to decay. Fresh beans from the appearance of dry, fragrant, very clear freshness, people impulse to immediately brew a cup of coffee.
