Why is coffee fascinating? basic knowledge of boutique coffee

It turns out that coffee is also imported to Italians. In 1600, it was first imported to Italy by a shrewd Venice merchant, and the first Italian cafe was opened in Venice's Piazza San Marco. With the violinist playing, the cafe in front of St. Mark's Square is full of tourists, even though its coffee price is much more expensive than other cafes, even if it costs a seat.

Italian coffee has become so famous in the world that we all forget that it is only one of many coffee brewing methods, such as Turkish coffee, French pressure filter coffee, drip filter coffee, Vietnamese coffee, American coffee and so on. The reason why the wonderful Italian coffee is superior to the others, the difference is that it uses steam pressure to extract the coffee liquid instantly. This is a small miracle in chemistry and physics that allows coffee to retain its original taste and concentration to the maximum extent possible.

Unlike the semi-automatic Italian coffee maker seen in cafes, the traditional Italian coffee maker is a mocha pot. Another magic thing about Italian coffee is its variety. All espresso is based on espresso, but it's not limited to that.

English for espresso: Espresso, the word actually comes from Italian, which means "fast" in Italian. Because Italian coffee is made and delivered to people very quickly. Italian coffee drips slowly from the filter like warm honey, dark reddish brown, with an oil content of 10% to 30%.

In Italy, be sure to try espresso. When you order something, just say caffe. Caffe means ordinary Italian coffee. Italians drink at least 3-4 cups of coffee a day. Except for Cappuccino or Latte with a lower intensity index for breakfast, they drink espresso or Macchiato the rest of the time. Macchiato, which is completely different from caramel macchiato in cafes such as Starbucks, is an espresso with two tablespoons of foaming steam milk, which will surprise you if you try it with a sweet taste.
