What are the key points for the selection of coffee beans and coffee powder? What parts should be paid attention to when choosing coffee beans and coffee powder?

Choose according to utensils and drinking frequency

First of all, we will introduce the advantages and disadvantages of coffee beans and coffee powder respectively, so that you can make more reference when buying.

Coffee beans can completely retain the flavor of coffee, if there is a bean grinder, coffee beans are definitely the most suitable choice. In addition, the coffee beans before opening are less susceptible to moisture or deterioration, so they are suitable for long-term storage. Even if you buy more at one time, you don't have to worry about the freshness.

But every time before drinking, it will be troublesome to go through the process of grinding beans first, which is not suitable for people who have less time or do not have a bean grinder. However, a good cup of coffee comes from high-quality coffee beans, and the ground coffee is quite mellow and worthwhile.

For people who drink coffee every day, they may not have much time to grind the coffee beans, and the coffee powder can quickly allow you to enjoy a cup of coffee. However, coffee powder is easier to deteriorate than coffee beans, so it is necessary to choose a suitable container to preserve it. However, even if the coffee powder is well preserved, it cannot match the taste of coffee beans in freshness and flavor.

We will introduce the preservation methods of coffee beans and coffee powder in the second half of the article. If you are a coffee lover, be sure to refer to it together.

Choose the taste you like.

Although the above introduces the advantages and disadvantages of coffee beans and coffee powder, the most important thing is to choose the taste you like. Next, let's explain the selection points for the taste of coffee.

The taste of coffee beans from each origin is different, which can be divided into "single coffee" which uses coffee beans from a single producing area, and "mixed coffee" which combines several kinds of coffee. According to the mixing ratio of the manufacturer, there are all kinds of mixed coffee, such as mocha coffee, Kilimanjaro mixed coffee and so on.

Therefore, when choosing the taste of coffee, we can know the flavor of this packet of coffee through the origin mark on the product package. But in many cases, manufacturers will not necessarily mark all the places of origin, so it is more difficult to know the source of the coffee.
