Individual coffee can best reflect a person's ability to drink coffee. "Mantenin coffee is bitter and smelly, with almost no sour taste; Colombian premium coffee contains sour fruit, and slow coffee can taste slightly nutty; Ethiopian coffee can smell obvious citrus aroma when grinding beans, and can smell lemon when finished.

Most of the cafes along the Fifth Avenue have a small courtyard, quiet, low-key, and most of the customers are repeat customers. The reporter visited several cafes following the aroma of coffee. More than one interviewee mentioned to the reporter that the original purpose of running a coffee shop is not simply to make money, being a barista does not have a high salary, and if it is not "coffee roasting", there is no need to engage in this business at all. Infatuated with the mellow aroma of freshly ground coffee, like coffee culture, make a few cups of your own in your spare time, and the strong taste buds are the basic characteristics of "coffee burning".

A cup of coffee is a luxury.

Every cafe has its owner's influence, ranging from style and business philosophy to a decoration in the store. Modou memory comes from Mordern Memory, the boss likes to collect old objects with a sense of history, house demolition lights, road signs will be collected. The plastic dolls, old bags, tables and chairs of the 1980s and 1990s in the cafe all smell of nostalgia. Li Qian is a barista here, a girl with short hair and thin hair. In the eloquent words, the reporter felt her love of coffee.

"beans tend to be emerald green, the ones with high moisture content are relatively fresh and the color is lighter, and they are generally kept for a long time. Indonesia's Mantenin beans are more mellow and bitter, while Ethiopia's Yejia Sheffield beans are famous for their citrus and fragrant aromas. " The producing area basically determines the tone of coffee beans, and coffee with rare beans is beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"if someone says, buy you a cup of Blue Mountain coffee, what you get is basically a fake. Because more than 90% of the blue mountain coffee beans are exported to Japan, the rest are in Europe, and very few come to China. " It has to be mentioned that 50 years ago, Japan's financial resources were meagre, and under such circumstances, they would rather spend a lot of money to help the poor Jamaican government solve the problem of the degradation of Blue Mountain coffee varieties. In exchange for a permanent global exclusive distribution of Blue Mountain coffee beans. This is also often mentioned today, the Japanese drink coffee is the most fastidious, because they have exquisite capital. Blue Mountain Coffee beans grow in the mountains more than 2200 meters above sea level. The beans are of good quality, sour, sweet, bitter, mellow, soft and expensive. "beans growing at an altitude of 2000 meters may have a similar taste, and many of the so-called Blue Mountain Coffee are made from several beans with similar characteristics."

When it comes to rare coffee, we should also mention Kopi Luwak. Kopi Luwak is made in Indonesia, one of the most expensive coffee in the world. There is a wild civet called Corby Ruwak, which likes to eat ripe coffee fruit, and the feces excreted from the digestive system are processed as coffee beans. Due to the fermentation of the intestines and stomach, the coffee beans produced are more mellow and become a hot product in the international market. In order to chase high profits, local coffee farmers take wild civets home and raise them in order to get more beans. However, the beans produced by farmed civets will be much less delicious. Even so, the output of this kind of coffee is still very rare.

The fragrance of flowers can only be regarded as "coffee burning".

With the sound of the bean grinder, Li Qian began her day's work. "the first two cups of coffee every day are experimental subjects to debug the fineness, water temperature and humidity of the coffee powder, and to debug it after noon, which is the basis for making every cup of coffee. Individual coffee is most likely to reflect the quality of a cup of coffee. " She moved skillfully around the coffee machine, and a few minutes later two cups of expresso (espresso) were made. "drinking coffee will blacken is a misinformation, caffeine is a better sunscreen, can be sunscreen. In addition, it is a misconception to think that espresso is high in caffeine. This 30ml expresso is low in caffeine. First of all, Arabica's Yili beans contain very low caffeine, and second, caffeine is water-soluble, and the shorter the contact with water, the less caffeine is released. A cup of espresso can be extracted in about 25 seconds, make it quickly, reduce the time it takes to oxidize with air, and of course it's best to drink it in a short time. " Expresso is rich in oil and mellow on the surface, but it tastes bitter, which makes journalists accustomed to the "three-in-one" taste a little at a loss. "people who drink regularly can feel mellow, the smell of caramel is very strong, and they will get sour at the bottom." These taste buds are still blind for first-time drinkers. However, the cappuccino made from another cup of expresso has a much weaker impact on the taste buds, with the smell of milky coffee.
