You can still bring Starbucks into the office at the beginning of the month, but you can only drink a cup of instant coffee at the end of the month. Well, some people may save money because instant coffee is cheaper, but in fact, the reason why more people like it is because instant coffee has the most flexible taste and can be adjusted according to their own hobbies. Today, Sayuri is going to teach you 10 small steps to make instant coffee tastier. Go to the teahouse to experiment while the boss is not paying attention.

1. The water temperature is controlled between 80 and 90 degrees: in theory, higher than this temperature will make the coffee taste bitter, and if it is too low, it will make the coffee sour and bitter. But if you like to drink specific taste of acid, use this as a benchmark to adjust yourself. I suddenly remembered the origin of 85C. )

two。 Put the microwave oven to heat it: why do you want to heat it when you have already brewed it with hot water? The answer is to make the molecules of coffee powder more active and taste more mellow.

3. First add a small cup of hot water to dissolve, and then fill the cup: Hey, I wonder if the acids have such experience? The hot water is urgent and hot until the water fills the cup, only to find that there is still a pile of powder on the surface of the water. It is recommended to add a small cup of hot water and stir evenly before injecting appropriate water.

4. Get the golden ratio right: the all-Japan Coffee Association recommends mastering the golden ratio of "every 1 teaspoon of coffee powder, add hot water to 140--150cc". Of course, people who like to drink light or strong acids can be adjusted slightly according to their taste.

5. Stir-fry over low heat for 30 seconds: in this way, it can improve the aroma and concentration of instant coffee powder, as long as 30 seconds, fried for nothing.

6. Choose instant coffee with larger particles: the large particles here do not require you to take micro-ground coffee beans, so they will not boil. What is said here is that if conditions permit, try not to use the kind of instant coffee powder that boasts that it can be brewed directly in ice water. This should be matched with the above point, because the coffee powder with too small particles is fried over low heat, it is easier to stir-fry the charred flavor, and the fragrance is not easy to preserve. On the contrary, with such stir-frying, the coffee taste is mediocre.

7. Add salt: this comes from the Arab habit of drinking coffee. A little bit of salt blends the sour taste of the coffee to make it more palatable than adding sugar.

8. Add a small cup of wheat tea: want to drink a little sweet, but not just sugar and cream? Try to pour in a little wheat tea! In addition, because instant coffee is easy to lose its flavor after soaking for a long time, the addition of wheat tea can not only enhance the sweetness, but also help retain the aroma.

9. Add flavor: add milk candy, marshmallows, and even crush the unfinished Oreo to make the coffee taste layered.

10. Take good care of it: last but not least, do not think that instant coffee powder can be placed arbitrarily because of its outer packaging. it is recommended to find a sealed can or put it in a cool place, so as not to let the coffee powder get damp or expose to the sun.
