2 Santos Coffee-Origin

The name "Santos" comes from the port where coffee is shipped, and coffee in the valley around the capital, Sao Paulo, is the most typical coffee in Brazil. Santos is a neutral bean, the best flavor is known as the crown of coffee, if the preparation of other coffee has a unique flavor, the most suitable for people with aristocratic flavor, sense of humor and strong interpersonal relationships. The high-quality Brazilian Bourbon Santos coffee is comparable to Blue Mountain Coffee. If Blue Mountain is the king of coffee, then Brazilian Bourbon Santos Coffee is a hermit in the coffee kingdom. Like all Brazilian coffees, they are best served when they are fresh and tender, because the older they are, the more acidic they are.

Although Brazil is known as the "kingdom of coffee", the hometown of coffee is not in Brazil, but in the Ethiopian province of Cafa in Africa. The name "Coffee" evolved from the place name of "Kafa". Coffee was introduced into Brazil after the 18th century. In 1727, Brazil had a border dispute with its northern neighbor French Guiana. In order to prevent the situation from spreading, the Brazilian Governor sent a delegation of military officer Francisco de Moro Barreta to French Guiana for negotiations in an attempt to resolve the dispute between the two countries by peaceful means. Unexpectedly, his border negotiations failed, but unexpectedly became the "father of coffee" of Brazil.

French Guiana introduced coffee in 1722, first planted it in the backyard of the Government House, and then planted it on a small scale on a nearby farm. The Governor regarded coffee as a "national treasure" for fear of being taken away by neighboring countries, especially Brazil, which had absolute military and economic dominance at that time, so there were soldiers with guns patrolling around the coffee garden day and night.

After Moro Barretta arrived in Guyana, the coffee garden was heavily guarded and heavily guarded to keep Moro Barreta and his party from getting half a step closer. However, the handsome young officer won the favor of the governor's wife, not only invited Moro Barretta to taste coffee, but also personally accompanied him to visit the coffee garden, and presented a handful of ripe coffee beans and five coffee seedlings to Moro Barretta. After getting the seeds, Moro Barreta immediately left Guyana to escort the "national treasures" to Brazil. Since then, coffee has settled in Brazil. Those seeds are the ancestors of more than 3.9 billion Brazilian coffee trees today. In the early history of Brazil, coffee started very slowly. When Mr Molobaleta returned to Brazil, coffee culture began in the state of Para, at the mouth of the Amazon. About 1773, coffee was introduced from the north to Brazil's traditional agricultural areas on the southeast coast: Rio de Janeiro and Sao Paulo. As the climate here is very suitable for growing coffee, coupled with fertile land, cheap labor and other factors, coffee production in Brazil has developed rapidly. At the beginning of the 19th century, coffee was grown all over the country, followed by a "coffee boom" that lasted nearly a century.

Santos Coffee, as a high-quality coffee variety, can be drunk individually or mixed.

Single product production

Roasting: more and more people are fond of roasting their own coffee beans, because usually after the coffee beans are roasted, they can only keep their freshness for 1 to 7 days, and then they begin to stale, leaving only bitterness and no mellow taste. Therefore, self-baking can ensure the freshness of coffee beans.

The traditional roaster is drum-type, which has the characteristics of stewing, which will make the coffee beans more mature and full-bodied. The household drum roaster can bake half a pound of coffee beans at a time, and the baking time (including cooling and producing beans) takes about 210.25 minutes. If you want to roast deeply, you only need to increase the time. When in use, just put the raw beans, set the baking degree, press the start button, from baking to cooling, the roaster can automatically complete.

Grinding: in order to blend with water, coffee has made the greatest sacrifice-smashing into pieces. Before brewing coffee, the beans must be ground into fine grains to increase the contact area between water and coffee in order to extract the delicacy. In fact, the bean grinder is more important than the coffee machine. At present, most people choose the "sawtooth grinder" because it can grind uniform coffee powder quickly and steadily. The operation method of the sawtooth bean grinder is very simple, generally speaking, it will have two setting functions, one is to set the grinding degree, the other is to set the grinding time. The degree of grinding is mostly expressed in Arabic numerals, and the smaller the number is, the finer the grinding is. On the top of the bean grinder is a funnel shaped box containing unground beans, and below is a drawer to hold the ground coffee powder. When you choose to buy a bean grinder, you should pay attention to its power, usually between 70 watts and 150 watts, the higher the better, the higher the power, the faster the grinding speed, and the shorter time the coffee powder stays in the sawtooth, so it can grind the coffee powder at low temperature.

Brewing: to brew a good cup of coffee, you should not only have fresh coffee powder and slightly harder water, but also a set of easy-to-use brewing tools. There are three main types of coffee machines in common use.

Drip filter: wet the coffee powder with water and let the coffee liquid flow through the filter cloth or filter paper and flow into the container at the speed of natural fall. Basically, this method does not soak the coffee powder, just let the hot water pass slowly through the coffee powder. Both the drip cup and the electric coffee maker fall into this category and are the simplest brewing tools that can make clean and brightly colored coffee.

Bubble type: put the coffee powder into the pot, soak it in hot water for several minutes, and then filter out the coffee grounds by a filter cloth or screen to form a cup of coffee liquid.

Siphon pots, drip pots, Belgian coffee pots and Vietnamese coffee pots are all follicular brewing tools, and they all have a soaking process to form a more complex taste.

High-pressure type: use pressurized hot water to penetrate the compacted coffee powder to produce a thick cup of coffee in this form of tools such as a mocha pot and an espresso machine.

Quick brewing method: can use Italian espresso machine, faster coffee brewing method. The espresso machine can extract several cups of coffee successively. The oil and gum in the coffee beans can be emulsified and dissolved under high pressure during the brewing process, and the essence of the beans is completely extracted by pressure, making the brewed coffee stronger, better in taste and flavor.

Mixed preparation

First add deep-fried coffee to the cup, pour the same amount of milk into the milk pan, boil over low heat, add cream before foaming, do not wait for the foam to disappear and pour on the coffee.
