What is "Espresso"?

You could say it's a coffee, a way of brewing coffee; perhaps, you could say "Espresso" is a life or an art.

Espresso is a comprehensive art of coffee:

Espresso coffee is not only composed of a single coffee bean, because the role of high-pressure hot water, it is easy to highlight the characteristics of a single coffee bean, and produce uneven taste of Espresso. Espresso is made from a variety of coffee beans from all over the world. Many coffee roasters also carefully develop recipes that represent their own companies in order to blend their own brand of coffee beans that are popular with the public.

Coffee style and taste will evolve into coffee taste with local characteristics along with many factors such as regional customs and cultural background. In Italy, Espresso is simply divided into southern Italy and northern Italy flavor taste, in southern Italy, because the development of construction can not be as refined and prosperous as northern Italy, cultural background is weaker, coupled with the local folk customs are stronger, so the coffee flavor developed is more intense wild and coarse. Coffee in northern Italy is different, and Italy's cultural and economic center is mostly concentrated in northern Italy, where there are more opportunities to accept foreign culture. Therefore, the taste of Beiyi style Espresso is more delicate, smooth and rich and varied. The same country, interesting because of the differences between the north and south regions, each developed a different style of Espresso, so the allocation of Espresso is an art, some people even spend their lives to study the proportion of espresso allocation formula. For example, Espresso is also famous in the world for the well-known Ferrari car factory's car-making technology, the same is a kind of persistence, for the sake of a never-ending pursuit of perfection.

Espresso is a way to make coffee using technology:

Therefore, in order to brew a perfect cup of Espresso, we must pay attention to the following key factors: the temperature of the water, the low water temperature will affect the extraction of coffee, it is easy to cause insufficient extraction, the substance of the coffee itself cannot be fully released, so that the brewed Espresso flavor is slightly insufficient, and the taste is easy to sour; On the contrary, the high water temperature is easy to cause excessive extraction of coffee, but the taste of coffee is bitter. The pressure of water, the general brewing method of coffee, can only release the substances that can be dissolved in water inside the coffee, while Espress can extract the substances that are not dissolved in water through high pressure, and the lipids inside the coffee are completely emulsified by high pressure, so that they melt into the water. This is the main source of coffee taste. Emulsification will make the Espresso more viscous, making people drink it like velvety. Moreover, due to the viscosity will form a lower surface tension, more able to invade the taste buds, so that the aroma of coffee reverberates in the mouth for a long time. Filter time, one cup of Espresso with coffee flavor extracted with high pressure hot water

It only takes about 25 seconds to complete, and after this period of time, the coffee liquid flowing out has basically no flavor, only diluting Espresso.

Espresso is a lifestyle:

In Italy, Espresso has a close relationship with the locals. It is a habit for people to drink Espresso in cafes.

Walk into the cafe, give the proud waiter and the coffee master in the bar a familiar greeting, lean on the front of the bar, enjoy the coffee master's skilled operation of the machine, wait for the coffee master to carefully brew coffee for everyone, get the first hand coffee, two or three mouthfuls without dragging it down, the customers in the store know each other and talk, sometimes the coffee master will join the hot chat, for Italians, on the cafe, Drinking Espresso is already a habit and an attitude in their lives.

In the United States or Taiwan, Italian coffee shops line the streets. They are places for young people to meet and chat. They are places for office workers to do business or relax. Most of them do not drink Espresso, generally only drink cappuccino with milk or latte and other flavored coffee, most of these people do not know and do not know how to enjoy espresso like Italians.
