In fact, the taste of coffee is not exactly the same as that of wine, but there are similarities and differences. Similar to the five steps of wine tasting, coffee tasting can be roughly divided into four steps: smell, color, taste and induction.

Step 1 of ●: smell incense

When brewing a cup of coffee, there is always a strong fragrance coming to the nostrils. Carefully enjoy the process of changing the pure fragrance from thick to light.

Step 2 of ●: watch the color

Different coffees have different colors. Pay attention to observe the color of coffee before tasting, which is an important clue to reveal the quality of coffee to you. Generally speaking, the best coffee is dark brown, rather than dark and bottomless.

Step 3 of ●: tasting

When tasting coffee, you should first suck, so that the coffee can fill the whole mouth, and the coffee in the mouth is sweet, slightly bitter, slightly sour and not astringent. Then take a sip and slowly taste it, activate the taste buds on the tip of the tongue, and slowly experience the various flavors of coffee, including acidity, mellow thickness, sweetness and astringency.

Acidity

The degree to which the entrance of the coffee makes you drool indicates the acidity of the coffee. It is simply divided into high, medium and low.

Alcohol thickness

Refers to the weight of coffee liquid in the mouth. Imagine it with water, skim milk, and whole milk. It is simply divided into high, medium and low. You can also use fruit juice to imagine that mango juice is thick, apple juice is medium, lemon juice is light, again emphasize that the thickness of alcohol is not directly related to the final flavor.

Sweetness

Refers to the sweetening process of pure coffee, not the result of adding milk and sugar. Varying degrees can also be divided into slightly sweet (like juice), very sweet (like sugar).

Astringent taste

Refers to the feeling of dry hair at the entrance of the coffee liquid. It is simply divided into high, medium and low. Remember that coffee is the product of fruit, it is normal to have astringency, but the astringency should be balanced. When tasting carefully, let the taste buds fully feel the various flavors of the coffee, do not rush to swallow the coffee, should be contained in the mouth, let the coffee and saliva mix with the air, and then swallow.

Step 4 of ●: induction

Like the last step of wine tasting, the comprehensive results of the tasting need to be described in words and recorded if necessary, so that you can set up a database for the coffee tasting experience and constantly supplement it. You can also constantly improve your coffee tasting ability.
