Why is dirty coffee so popular? What is the difference between dirty coffee and iced latte? What does Dirty do? What does Dirty mean?

Dirty, we used to call dirty coffee, of course, some people will use transliteration to call it "decent". In terms of material combination, dirty coffee is actually a small cup of ice latte without ice. At the beginning, many people thought that dirty coffee was a short-lived online celebrity coffee, but they never thought that even today, it is still a must-have popular product for every family. Even in some coffee shops, dirty coffee is still the signature product of the store.

Dirty is not difficult, just use a refrigerated cup to hold the frozen milk, and then pour the espresso gently on the surface to separate it from the milk because of the density and temperature difference, and a cup of Dirty is finished! Because it is so simple, many friends will wonder: why is dirty coffee still so popular?

At the beginning of the fame of dirty coffee, we have to mention a trend of online celebrities that prevailed in 1718-"dirty culture". Some foods deliberately create a "dirty" image through the use of chocolate products. For example, dirty bags and dirty doughnuts were half-popular online celebrity foods at that time. Thanks to this, a "dirty trend" was set off. At that time, many people wanted to associate all kinds of food with "dirty" in order to rub against this heat, and the coffee industry was no exception.

But in the early years, no coffee shop made outstanding products, so the category of "dirty coffee" has not been unified for a long time. Until later, the dirty coffee we see now has become popular on the Internet, because the scene of espresso slowly falling into milk is not only very healing, but also more likely to associate with the image of "dirty". It wasn't long before the dirty coffee, which originated in Japan, began to appear on the menus of boutique cafes.

What makes dirty coffee still popular today? If dirty coffee is just an empty appearance, no internal "vase", then now, like other foods, has become an out-of-date "Internet celebrity". But it is clear that the still active dirty coffee tells us that it is not. The layering of milk and concentrate not only makes a visual contrast for coffee, but also creates a conflicting sense of contrast in taste and taste. The high sweetness and concentrated bitterness of milk is the contrast we feel in taste; the ice of milk is hot in concentration, which is the temperature contrast we feel in taste.

The reason why dirty coffee likes to drink heavily is that only by taking a big sip can we "capture" all the milk and concentrate, and the contrast feelings mentioned above can collide out in the mouth. If it is a small sip, then no accident, we will first drink the surface of espresso, and then leave a large cup of milk. Not only can not experience a sense of contrast, but also make people who are not used to drinking concentrate very uncomfortable.

The more yuan formula benefits from the delamination of milk and espresso, and we can have more choices in terms of materials. Take purified milk, for example, in the same proportion, replacing latte with purified milk will affect the balance between coffee and milk taste, and the higher the milk concentration, the lighter the coffee taste.

And dirty coffee does not have to have such a worry! Because the milk and concentrate are layered, even if we replace the milk with purified milk with a higher concentration, the taste of the coffee will not be affected. On the contrary, it will further enhance the sense of contrast. Because purified milk will have a more prominent sweetness and taste, it will naturally conflict with the taste of coffee.

This is why Qianjie said at the beginning that dirty coffee has become the signature product of many coffee shops. Because of the delamination of milk and coffee, merchants can make adjustments on a certain material when developing new products, and then develop various specialties based on dirty coffee. Such as the recent popularity of "pistachio Dirty", "grape Dirty", "melon Dirty", and so on. Therefore, we all know why to this day, dirty coffee is still a popular product of major coffee shops. Not only because it is different from the tradition, but also because it has higher compatibility.
