What's so good about Starbucks? Why do young people want to work at Starbucks?

Repeat before the formal answer: Starbucks' coffee world is two systems from the outside world. Starbucks uses its brand influence and market advantages to establish a closed coffee dynasty. Here, traditional coffee is abandoned, how to make, how to taste, what is coffee, Starbucks all redefine, it is up to Starbucks to decide. So people who know coffee don't take it seriously with me and don't laugh at Starbucks. Starbucks has also made a great contribution to the coffee industry. Just play your own.

Ok,Action .

[module 1: introduction to Coffee]

This is Starbucks' coffee-making process, which is analyzed one by one:

1. Coffee growing and purchasing: beans used as commercial Starbucks are of high quality.

two。 As a giant, I believe Starbucks can do a good job in processing and storage of raw beans.

3. Coffee roasting: here comes the point. Have you ever eaten fried chestnuts with sugar? Now fried incense or fried into the factory packaging plastic packaging, sent to the supermarket shelf life of 12 months of authentic? Starbucks coffee is fried chestnuts with sugar cooked in Seattle, USA.

Coffee from boutique cafes should be roasted on the spot. Starbucks coffee beans are not only roasted six months in advance and shipped by sea from Seattle, but are all of the type shown below.

Are you kidding me? It's all burnt. Why are you doing this? Because Starbucks sells espresso with milk. 2oz's espresso should be mixed with 16oz's milk. In order not to overshadow the coffee flavor with milk and sugar, the coffee should be as strong as possible. "how strong is it? Bake hard, bake out the oil, scorch, and it will all smell like coffee. This is not a rough remark. I didn't say it. It was said by David O'God, one of the founders of Starbucks who created the match.

Let's summarize a few hard conditions for Starbucks coffee:

1. The taste is the same all over the world.

two。 It is not easy to corrupt.

3. It smells like coffee. It can make people who have never had coffee drink it and say, well, Buck's coffee tastes good!

The coffee that can meet the above conditions must be ordinary, not fresh enough and deeply roasted.

[module 2: coffee making]

How did coffee beans become coffee in your cup?

Starbucks common black coffee are: espresso, American coffee, drip coffee, hand coffee. There are generally out of contact with French filter pot coffee, French siphon coffee, Clover coffee machine coffee.

Why didn't you show the picture? There is almost no difference in the appearance of these coffees, Blackwater.

Then let's introduce:

(1) Light green module: coffee beans and coffee powder. The first step is to grind the coffee beans into coffee powder, which can be made into coffee according to the different methods in the picture. Coffee powder is not instant coffee, it is as insoluble as tea.

(2) Red module: Starbucks Italian coffee maker Mastrena. It makes espresso, also known as espresso, which is filled in a small cup in the lower right corner of the red module. The coffee machine works by letting the water flow through the coffee powder in the shape of a cake under high temperature and high pressure to get espresso. This process is a bit like extraction, or juice extraction is more vivid, the whole process is fully automatic.

Several names of espresso: Italian concentration, double concentration (double espresso or doppio), single concentration (solo).

(3) Blue module: drip filter coffee machine. Put the ground coffee powder into it, and you can automatically make drip coffee with more taste and flavor, also known as this week. Coffee of the week is called because Starbucks changes a different coffee bean every week on average, but it's not necessarily the case.

The centralized name of drip filter coffee: freshly brewed coffee, drip filter coffee, this week's coffee, black coffee, black coffee, today's coffee.

(4) Purple module: hand-made coffee. It sounds high-end, but the principle is simple: pour the coffee powder into a white filter pot and slowly pour it into it with hot water. The coffee it gets is the freshest and most flavored of the four, and there is a significant gap from it this week.

(5) Yellow module: American coffee. Add espresso to the hot water, nothing else.

(6) I didn't introduce French pressure, siphon pot and Clover coffee machine, because customers in general stores can't get in touch with them.

(7) this is only a production method, this is only a production method. Can make hot, can also make ice. The same coffee beans can be made in all the above methods, but the flavor is completely different.

[module 3: conclusion]

1. Well, it turns out that a stuffy Starbucks espresso is really faking. Because his espresso, from beans to baking to freshness, is not prepared for direct taste at all. (in fact, the respondent himself was bored with the concentration of nearly a hundred stars, and he always thought he was cool, and the past was unbearable to look back, but the man was in the dim light for 233333. )

two。 It's the same thing to drink icebergs, but it really attracts attention.

3. Not to mention the American style, it smells like scorching.

4. What about this week? Director! director! I only have a medium cup at Starbucks in our village this week, , I drink too well.

This is the Starbucks baking curve. Almost all of Starbucks' beans used in this week's coffee are medium to heavy roasted.

What is a baking curve? Starbucks found that most customers can only distinguish different coffee beans by the degree to which the coffee is roasted, not by the flavor of the coffee itself, so it created a seemingly high-end game scene called the baking curve. To put it bluntly: you can't tell impressionism from realism, so you put a cartoon and an oil painting in front of you. You recognize it: these two are not of the same style! I said, sir, you are amazing! Quack, quack! If you're happy, I'm happy.

What kind of beans do you choose this week? One principle is to choose the beans stored in the store that are nearing maturity and grind them in the morning for the whole day.

Do you still think drinking this week is very classy?

I didn't make it up either. Starbucks' earliest coffee this week was called Today's Coffee, because it changes different beans every day. Later, customers took them as a kind of beans and complained that the quality of your coffee was unstable! The store manager was forced to change it once a week and increase the degree of baking, which is called Coffee of the week.

Having said so much, it seems that Starbucks coffee is not of high quality. Chief, can we still happily go to Starbucks and pretend to be a pussy?

Don't worry, please read the title clearly:

Yes, we're talking about black coffee here. Starbucks is really not so good. However, the kind of espresso with strong coffee flavor mentioned above is the best choice for making all kinds of Italian coffee, such as latte, cappuccino and caramel macchiato. Only in this way can you get a strong taste in your coffee. It's just not suitable for a stuffy mouthful.

So Starbucks doesn't have any good black coffee?

Don't worry, it's time to say it now: make coffee by hand.

5. Hand-brewed coffee is the only "more" flavored coffee available to customers in Starbucks. Hand flushing is just a production method. When ordering, you can specify your own coffee beans and let the barista make them for you at the same price. If Starbucks doesn't have any more hands, at least I probably won't drink any more. At present, hand-brewed coffee is only available in some stores, which have special hand-flushing bars. There are currently 26 Starbucks in the city (Xi'an) and only three have hand-brewing.

There is a difference between a hand-flush store and a Zhenxuan store: hand-brewing is just a way to make coffee, and you can use any beans. Zhenxuan store emphasizes that some limited coffee beans are only available in this store, so they will be more expensive. The way to distinguish is: there is a | R sign on the doorknob of the selected store. R means Reserve.

[module 4: practical information]

Coffee is mainly produced in tropical Asia / Pacific, South America and African countries. Coffee from different regions has its own flavor, and coffee experts at Starbucks have tried countless times to mix coffee from different regions according to a certain proportion, called blend. For example, this season's Starbucks Annual Coffee mix (Anniversary Blend) is a blend of organic Youken and aged Sumatra. There is also a certain type of coffee in a certain producing area that tastes very good when it is drunk directly, so it is no longer blended, which is called a single product.

These different blending schemes and individual products make up Starbucks coffee beans, which are arranged according to the degree of roasting.

Note that these coffee beans are not available in every store. The most common are Kenya, Parker Market, first choice, Sumatra, breakfast, concentrate, Italian. )

It's cool just to remember a few names.

(to correct it, the last one is called Italian baking. )

The espresso written on the penultimate concentrated roast, yes, we went to the store to drink concentrated, American, latte, Joma and other coffee made by the Mastrena coffee machine is the use of this coffee bean.

Here are several Starbucks time-limited coffees, which are available at a specific time of year, called seasonal regression, along with a full range of cups, Starbucks cards, souvenirs, etc. It is also an interesting marketing tool for Starbucks.

(not all of the above, not all of the above)

Contraband: among the above coffee beans, the ones suitable for making iced coffee are Kenya, Flower Pavilion Qingfeng and Katikati. If you take the initiative to drink these three types of iced coffee, you will definitely be regarded as a veteran!

It can be found that there are places where Starbucks coffee is mentioned: origin, processing method, roasting degree, production method. The taste is mainly acidity, mellow, whether there is a strange taste (cocoa, fruit, earthy taste, etc.)
