Qianjie-novice coffee choice strategy

Only look at the baking date, not the shelf life.

First of all, we would like to correct a concept: coffee beans are not as fresh as possible, there should be a bean cultivation period. It is only after the bean cultivation period that it comes to the "best flavor period". Once the best flavor period is over, it is naturally "out of date". Generally speaking, a single bean will be fine within 1 month after baking, unless the baking level is really bad.

Just baked beans, a week or so to open the flavor is the best, at this time the baked taste, barbecue flavor basically dissipated, coffee beans themselves all out the flavor, is a good time to taste. On the other hand, the Italian coffee beans do not stabilize until about 2 weeks after baking. Beans within 3 months, regardless of freshness, aroma and taste, will be very full. However, if the flavor period is over, it is no longer worth drinking; after the expiration date, you should throw it away more firmly.

Because coffee beans contain oil, after the oil substance is oxidized, it is easy to produce aflatoxin, which has a direct carcinogenic effect on the human body.

Merchants recommend it for reference only. Choose what you like.

Merchants sometimes recommend it professionally, and sometimes it may just be a marketing gimmick, so what flavor of coffee you like, you should look for a merchant with that flavor. For example, if you like the light scent of flowers, the soft acidity of citrus, and the aftertaste of honey and cream chocolate, you can't accept the dullness of Manning, or even the impartiality of the Blue Mountains. If you are not sure whether the coffee is roasted properly and to your taste, you can buy a minimum amount of packaging to try it. If there are conditions, you can also go to the store to try it, find some you like, and then become his regular customers. I believe that the coffee shop will make your taste more and more what you want.

In the purchase of coffee beans, the packaging capacity of beans, as well as packaging materials are very important. Avoiding light, having an one-way valve, environmental protection, and not excessive packaging are things that every coffee lover should pay attention to. I have seen someone sell coffee beans in glass bottles, and it is estimated that everyone can only "hehe". Because coffee beans are most afraid of oxygen, moisture and sunshine.

After choosing the right material, if the coffee bought is not unsealed, it can be preserved at room temperature; if it is unsealed, it is recommended to drink it as soon as possible, really can not finish it at once, please seal it with a sealing clip, then pack it in a fresh bag and put it in the refrigerator. To prevent flavor loss yo ~ as a beginner rookie, if you can master the above principles of selecting coffee beans, I believe you will have a clearer train of thought when you buy coffee beans later!

Knowledge: Arabica (Arabica) is one of two very important varieties in the commercial coffee industry, and another important variety is Robusta
