Stand in line for coffee? Do you really understand, or is it just for pretending?
Coffee has changed from the strange taste of foreign things more than a decade ago to a cup of leisure drink in the hands of fashionable white-collar workers today. And there are not a few people who are addicted to coffee and are willing to spend a lot of time in a long line at Starbucks, but dare you say you really know anything about coffee? Or do those cups of drinks that look like petty bourgeoisie make you feel superior? Self-willed, through the following six strides to the coffee shop!
1. Shallow baking (Light Roast) vs deep baking (Dark Roast)
According to the American classification, the roasting of coffee beans can be divided into eight stages from shallow to deep. The taste of coffee mainly depends on the baking degree. Generally, the deeper the roasting degree, the stronger the bitter taste, and the lower the roasting degree, the higher the sour taste. Baking depth mainly depends on the characteristics of raw beans, personal preferences and other factors.
Arabica (Arabica) vs Robusta (Robusta)
In terms of varieties, coffee trees are mainly divided into two kinds: one is Arabica, the other is Robusta. Arabica coffee is mainly produced in tropical South America, such as Central Brazil, with smaller bean shape, lower caffeine content and higher price.
Robusta is produced in Madagascar in west-central and eastern Africa, as well as Indonesia in Asia, with large beans, about twice as much caffeine as Arabica, and low prices.
About 75% of the world's coffee is Arabica, but only 10% is coffee that can be used in upscale coffee shops.
Espresso (Espresso) vs dripping Coffee (Drip)
Espresso is made by letting hot water flow through a handful of fine coffee powder under high pressure, with high caffeine concentration and coffee fat. The dripping coffee is to let the boiling water through the coarse ground coffee powder, the caffeine concentration is low, basically does not contain coffee fat, is more suitable for drinking in large quantities.
Caffee Latte (vs) cappuccino (Cappuccino)
Lattes and cappuccinos both belong to milk coffee. The main difference lies in the ratio of espresso, milk and milk bubbles.
For cappuccino, the amount of espresso, hot milk and foam should be the same (1:1:1), while hot latte milk is more (1:2:1). The latte is more compact and delicate, while the cappuccino is slightly dry.
5. Caffee Latte vs Ole Coffee (Cafe au Lait)
Simply put, lattes are made from Espresso and steamed milk, while Ole coffee is made from dripping coffee with steamed milk.
Espresso or Expresso
If the above 5 points are not clear for the time being, remember to pronounce them correctly first! Espresso is Italian, especially espresso. It means on the spur of the moment and "for you" (cooked right away for you). In a coffee shop, if you ask for "Espresso", it means you are in a hurry, while Expresso can only make the clerk laugh.
