We already know the golden ratio of coffee with perfect taste. So what is the premise of making the perfect coffee?

1. Buy quality coffee beans

-it is best to choose whole beans instead of ground coffee powder

Although high-quality coffee can be preserved for a year after roasting, most coffee beans reach their strongest aroma in the first few days after roasting, and then the aroma gradually fades away, so it is best to buy beans within a few weeks after roasting

In addition, the degree of roasting of coffee beans is also very important. if it is overroasted, the coffee will lose all its flavor. on the contrary, if it is not roasted enough, the aroma of the coffee will not be sufficient.

two。 Freshly ground coffee before production

Coffee contains unique aromas, which can easily be oxidized and disappear if roasted beans are exposed to the air, and buying whole beans can slow down the disappearance of coffee aroma, so, freshly ground coffee before brewing coffee is also important to make good coffee. In addition, different production tools have different requirements for the fineness of coffee powder.

3. Store coffee beans correctly

Roasted coffee is easy to deteriorate if it is not properly preserved. Coffee beans that are not used immediately should be placed in airtight containers or special coffee bags to drain the excess gas as far as possible (introduced later in the use of one-way valve) to avoid direct sunlight preservation; if coffee beans are not used within two weeks, they can be frozen, and coffee beans used within two weeks can not be refrigerated. You may not have time to grind coffee beans every time in your daily life, or you can prepare the ground coffee powder two weeks in advance according to the amount you use. when you keep it, you should also pay attention to drain the excess gas and keep it airtight to avoid direct sunlight.

4. A reasonable mix of water and coffee

One of the mistakes that people often make is that they put too little coffee. Don't think that too much coffee will be wasted. We can match the amount of water (milk) and coffee according to the golden ratio mentioned earlier (the ratio of water to coffee is 17.42).

5. The skill of making (brewing)

There are many steps in making (brewing) coffee, which will not be described here. We will describe them in detail in future articles. In short, the pursuit of precision and consistency is a quality that can not be ignored in making good coffee. There are some special skills in the process of making coffee, and it takes constant practice to make the coffee taste better and better. Coffee lovers can choose some short courses to learn basic skills, but if they want to become professional baristas, they need systematic training.

6. High-quality coffee making tools

High-quality tools can make better coffee, although it seems that high-quality coffee-making tools cost a lot of money, but in the long run, you will find it worthwhile, and high-quality coffee-making tools will last longer and make the process of making coffee easier. (this article is reproduced)
