When drinking Brazilian coffee for the first time, friends all suggest using a small cup. After all, it has a strong taste, and it is refreshing to use a small cup to chew your mouth. Because Brazilian coffee is a moderate choice, its acidity is moderate, sweet, bitter and mellow are all neutral, so the taste is very smooth.

If you want to flush Brazil by hand, it is recommended to use a thin-nosed pot and a V60 filter cup. Pour the coffee powder into the filter cup, then add 20g water at 88 degrees Celsius to stew. The time is 30 seconds. As the water brews, the coffee flows down into the lowest cup.

The coffee made in this way will be very rich in flavor, with a balance of sour and sweet. For example, the coffee made from Catuai beans (a typical Arabica coffee bean with its own unique flavor) has a mellow taste and a light smell of tranquil flowers and fine taste of honey and violets.

Brazilian coffee is cool mostly because it gives us all the initiative in the taste experience.

There is no strong bitterness of other coffee, but the softness of sweetness. It is not the weakness of acidity, but the looming of acid in sweetness. And salty, here is mainly combined with acid, bitterness, together to form a kind of Brazilian coffee-a balanced and supple mellow.

When baking Brazilian coffee beans, generally do not use fierce firepower. Slowly heating up, so that the rate is generally maintained at about 10 degrees, is a kind of care for Brazil's soft physique. The chemical reaction of caramelization usually begins at 140 degrees. At the end of the baking and dehydration stage, the heating rate becomes slower when it is above 150 degrees to ensure that the soft Brazilian beans have plenty of time for caramelization at this time.

Of course, some people have doubts about this, thinking that Brazilian coffee itself contains less sugar, and the caramelization reaction consumes its limited sugar. But we should not lose sight of another feature of Brazil: there is no strong bitterness in Brazilian coffee.

I am very picky about the taste of coffee, but the taste of this cup of Brazilian coffee brings back the feeling of being in Brazil, attractive South American amorous feelings, familiar flowers and sweetness, hot Latin girls, noisy streets of Rio, graffiti all over the sky, all as the coffee liquid melts in the taste buds at the same time, clearly visible, think of it, it is one of the reasons why it is cool.
