How to make coffee the right way to make coffee

First, choose your favorite coffee brewing method.

Don't care what others say, as long as you use it easily, cook it easily, and drink happily, it is the most suitable way for you to make coffee. Some people like to brew coffee in a convenient and fast American coffee pot, some prefer the romantic elegance of siphon coffee, while others prefer the simplicity and purity of French pressure, the Italian style of mocha pot, or the flavor of hand-brewed coffee. In any case, the brewing method that is suitable for others may not be the best for you, choose the coffee brewing method that suits you best and best. It is the first condition to enjoy the pleasure of brewing coffee in DIY.

Second, only buy "freshly roasted" coffee beans with "baking date marked".

"Coffee beans are fresh food" is a very popular concept in foreign countries. Fresh roasting is the life of a good cup of coffee! Freshly roasted coffee beans retain the most fragrant and charming coffee flavor, can easily make a cup of the most mellow coffee; stale coffee bean flavor has long been lost, can only boil a cup of bitter black water that is not mellow enough and may even be out of tune. If you don't buy baked bread that was baked a month ago, from now on, refuse to buy "stale" coffee beans / coffee powder that are not clearly marked with a baking date or have been roasted for more than seven days.

Third, brew coffee with "good water"

More than 98% of the ingredients in a cup of coffee are "water". The importance of water is beyond doubt! If you use bad water to brew coffee, even the best beans will be in vain-because bad water can destroy the best coffee. Even a simple "filter kettle" can filter out many bad substances for "tap water", making the brewed coffee more fragrant, strong and mellow. Like making tea, you need to avoid using distilled water, and if the tap water in your place is of poor quality, using clean mountain spring water is also an ideal way.

Fourth, put enough coffee

Coffee beans must be used in sufficient portions. Too little coffee powder may lead to bitterness or insipidity, but not too much at a time. The standard amount of coffee is: use "two flat spoons" (about 15g) coffee beans (powder) to brew "one cup" (about 180cc) coffee. Please adjust your coffee use according to this proportion.

5. Appropriate water temperature

Generally speaking, the most suitable water temperature for brewing coffee is between 88 and 94 degrees Celsius. Avoid using boiling hot water to brew coffee. Let the water boil and let it sit for 1-2 minutes before making coffee.

Keep coffee equipment clean at all times

Never bring the concept of "raising a pot" of tea to coffee utensils! Every time you use a coffee utensil, you need to clean it immediately and keep it clean and dry in a ventilated place. if you apply the concept of "raising a pot" to the coffee utensil, you will get a cup of bad coffee full of strange oil smell.

Make coffee and drink it within ten minutes

Don't believe that your coffee can be kept warm for more than half a day on the "electric heat preservation tray" of the coffee pot! The longer the coffee is laid aside, the flavor will gradually fade away and the taste will go away quietly. After the coffee is made and finished in ten minutes, he is the expert who knows how to do it.
