How to make good coffee?

1. Choose fresh roasted coffee beans Coffee beans are roasted for 6 weeks, this is the exhaust cycle is the best time for coffee taste, after which the flavor decreases with time and preservation. Most of the coffee bought in stores or stores is roasted from 3 months to December, which has passed the best time for coffee aroma, and even ready-made coffee beans have a sour smell of oil oxidation. We recommend that you buy freshly roasted coffee or buy fresh, home-roasted coffee beans nearby.

2. Choose good water quality water quality affects the taste after brewing, it is recommended to use filtered water or mineral water, do not use distilled water and electrolyzed water.

3. Grind coffee beans with a millstone grinder Cheap grinder is blade grinder, uneven flake particles, thickness is adjusted by grinding time, often due to friction heat affect coffee powder quality aroma is also easy to lose. It is suggested to use a millstone grinder. After grinding, the coffee powder has a uniform particle size and the granular coffee is of good quality.

4. The ratio of coffee powder to water is 1:10, about 10g of water is about 100ml.

5. Brew coffee first steams first slowly infuses water to let coffee powder wet let coffee liquid drip 1~2 drops can, after about 30 seconds in small water infuse the water you need. (Fresh coffee particles will expand due to hot water injection gas release surface, wait for the surface to return slightly flat and then continue to brew coffee, the effect of steaming will make coffee more aromatic)

6. Water temperature brewing coffee temperature of about 90C is most suitable. Higher temperatures will extract more sour flavors, and lower temperatures will tend to taste bitter, but it depends on the quality of the beans you brew and the degree of roasting.
