Taste fine coffee aroma coffee drinking way

The mainstream way to drink coffee is to drink the original solution (the original solution here is to exclude espresso, so is the full text). I have also been using this way of drinking to enjoy the taste of coffee. But then I drank too much coffee every day, resulting in tachycardia, shaking hands, chest tightness, retching and other adverse physical reactions, and gradually became a little afraid of coffee. But there is no way to quit coffee addiction, you have to drink coffee! I came up with an idea. Since I couldn't stand drinking the original solution, I drank coffee with very little water.

My way of adding water can be said to be more American than American coffee. Generally use very little (about 50ml) coffee solution, add a very large amount of hot water (about 200ml above). The amount of water to drink is guaranteed, and the taste of coffee is there. I am not used to it at first, but now I do like this way of drinking coffee, and through this way of drinking coffee, I have demonstrated some of the reasons in the coffee tasting book before.

As the original liquid coffee, all kinds of aroma and flavor response is very concentrated and strong. After drinking for many times, it is easy to cause smell and taste fatigue. After the senses slowly adapt, the sensitivity decreases and the response becomes slow, so it is impossible to make a more rigorous judgment. Then there is the mutual concealment and influence of taste and aroma, which makes the evaluation more difficult. In general, it is difficult for us to taste the sweetness of the original liquid of coffee with our tongue at the first time, and we can only feel the sweetness of coffee by its aftertaste.

Drink with the original solution, the astringency and mellowness of coffee can be well reflected, and the balance of taste can be objectively reflected.

After the original solution is diluted with water, the aroma will be weakened, but some unique aromas which can especially reflect the characteristics of beans and flavor are also obvious. In particular, some of the aroma that is covered up in the original solution is even more obvious. This is a very useful attempt to evaluate the differences between coffee beans.

In terms of taste, bitterness weakens a lot, sweetness strengthens, and sour taste decreases with the proportion. But this will not affect the evaluation of coffee taste balance, I call this: the balance of light coffee is the same balance as the original liquid.

In terms of taste, the original astringency of coffee almost did not show, and the smoothness increased significantly. The alcohol decreases the most, and the coffee becomes very thin. This is the last thing you can drink when diluted with water.

To sum up, the way of drinking coffee diluted with water sacrifices the taste experience and gives me an alternative experience in aroma and taste.
