Coffee mixed beans with excellent common sense and flavor

Mixed coffee is also called blended coffee. Nowadays, almost all the popular Italian coffee belongs to the category of mixed coffee. We generally refer to two or more different varieties of coffee or the same variety of coffee but roast different degrees of coffee mixed together as mixed coffee. Mixed coffee is by no means a simple addition, but hopes that through the unique understanding of coffee flavor, different coffee beans can learn from each other and blend with mixed coffee beans with excellent flavor.

Unlike the habit of naming individual coffee after its place of origin, blended coffee is generally named after a brand, just like Lipton Black Tea, maybe we have drunk Lipton for N years, but we never know exactly what kind of black tea Lipton has, and the brands of blended coffee almost never disclose their recipes, so when we choose blended coffee, we choose a brand or flavor rather than a specific kind of coffee beans.

People mix coffee beans mainly for the following purposes:

A stable flavor

Because coffee beans are a kind of crop, the flavor of even the same kind of coffee beans will be different from year to year, so mixing several kinds of coffee beans can solve this problem and keep the taste basically the same every year.

Balanced taste

Because one of the features of the Italian coffee machine is that it magnifies the most prominent flavor feature of coffee beans, we hardly use a single variety of coffee to make Espresso, otherwise if that coffee bean is bitter, the Espresso will be very bitter and sour. So we need to balance the flavors by matching them.

Reduce the cost

In fact, the cost reduction is due to the fact that coffee production is often reduced due to natural and man-made disasters. At that time, since it is matched, it is only necessary to find a coffee bean with similar taste to replace the corresponding coffee bean in the recipe. There is no need to pay a lot of money to snap up coffee beans that have increased prices as a result of reduced production. But after arriving in China, we creatively appeared coffee blends such as Blue Mountain flavor, which means that we can't drink the real Blue Mountain, so we drink Blue Mountain-flavored coffee. Anyway, no one knows what Blue Mountain coffee tastes like. A good recipe can create a coffee legend, such as ILLY and LAVAZA, which our Chinese people are familiar with. We hope that there will be a blend of coffee with Chinese characteristics that is really in line with Chinese taste as soon as possible, instead of mixing low-quality coffee beans after deep roasting just for the sake of low cost.
