In the past two years, there has been a boom in the take-out coffee market, but people who really know how to drink coffee will basically not order take-out coffee (it is acceptable to pack take-out coffee on the spot), because coffee has the best drinking time. It is a pain point that takeout coffee cannot solve: after a cup of coffee is finished, it is best to finish it within 30 minutes, otherwise the flavor and taste will be much worse.

The reference statistics are as follows:

"if you are a loyal user of Little Blue Cup, it is not difficult to find that Lucky's delivery time is getting shorter and shorter, from the initial 30 minutes to the current average of 18 minutes, that is, when users place an order on APP, they can get a cup of coffee during a chat."

18 minutes is the average, it can be said very simply, from the completion of production to the hands of customers, often more than 20 minutes. There are more promised delivery within 30 minutes on the market. You can imagine what this cup of coffee will look like after a long and bumpy journey into your hand (for example, the following cup of milk coffee looks good and tastes good when it is ready. Please make up for the appearance and taste of the takeout after it is delivered to you. )

Even if the best time to drink coffee is within 15 minutes, it is important to drink it slowly within 15 minutes if you want to finish it as soon as possible. Espresso and individual coffee, whether to drink fast or slow.

Drink espresso as soon as possible.

Espresso, except espresso, is all milk coffee, which is commonly known as milk coffee. This kind of coffee is a drink made from steamed milk mixed with espresso, so it needs to be finished as soon as it is served.

[additional note] if you ordered espresso espresso, please finish it as soon as possible, there are three mouthfuls of espresso in Italy and then leave the habit, freshly produced espresso, aroma and taste are the best, after a little shake evenly, you can drink it; if you cool down after the oil is gone, the sour taste will be prominent, there is no sense of pleasure at all.

There are two reasons to drink quickly:

First, the milk used to make coffee has been heated to 60-65 ℃. If you drink it too slowly, the fishy smell will be reflected when the temperature of the milk drops, which in turn affects the flavor of the coffee.

Second, the milk foam of the milk coffee is sent with steam, and it has been placed for too long. The milk foam will gradually harden after contact with the air for a long time, and the milk, coffee and milk bubbles will gradually be layered, so there is no way to drink them in the first place.

You should drink your coffee slowly.

Single product coffee refers to black coffee with single origin, single variety, same roasting degree, no sugar and no milk. The charm of individual coffee is that from grinding, extraction to final drinking, different periods and states will show different aroma and taste.

Hand-made boutique coffee, the aroma is the best at the beginning, if it is the type of aroma you like, it will make you happy to concentrate on the aroma, then take a sip and let the coffee liquid fully cover your tongue. To feel the acidity and sweetness of this cup of coffee, as well as "body texture" (mellow thickness), the rich layering of good coffee will fascinate you.
