A lot of people love lattes, and I'm no exception. When I haven't touched the boutique coffee, I have always loved to drink latte. I only know that latte is espresso and milk, but I don't know that espresso is made up of several kinds of coffee beans. The key to good latte is-Italian coffee bean formula. How to make good Italian coffee, but there is a lot of knowledge!

Why beans?

1. Each bean, different roasting degree, according to different proportions, to match a specialty coffee item.

2. Balancing costs.

3. Making espresso recipes.

Bean theory:

I roughly divide coffee beans into three categories: white, gray, and black. White main sweet acid taste, gray main sweet base, black main bitter tail. Then according to different bean characteristics and suitable baking degree to configure. The appropriate ratio is 3:5:2. Some beans may be white gray or gray black, so experiment to get the best sorting position to achieve the perfect combination.

White (forepart balsamic acid) light baked-Kenya, Guatemala, Yega Shefi, etc.

Gray (medium base sweet) Medium dark roast-Brazil, Costa Rica honey treated, Salvador, etc.

Black (bitter ending) Deep Roast-Mantenin, Kenya, Guatemala, etc.

Grayish black-Colombia (medium dark roast)-bitter ending.

Italian formula mainly sweet, sweet with milk goes well. A little white + gray + black in the middle, try Guatemala + Brazil + Kenya.

reviews

Coffee beans can be classified first, go to the front aroma, middle body or end of the sweet rhyme, and then try to drink one by one.

1. Kenya AA (medium roast)+ Mantenin G1 (medium dark)+ Guatemala Antigua-Flower God (very light roast)-Sweet, mellow, light floral aroma, good texture, delicious. Some people complain that coffee is not strong enough.

2. Kenya AA (medium roast)+ Mantenin G1 (medium dark)+ Ethiopia Yega Shefi (washed)(light roast)-Sweet enough, more mellow, light floral and fruit acid flavor, delicious. Coffee isn't good enough.
