A comprehensive understanding of the types of Starbucks coffee

In 1971, three famous baristas, Jerry, Gordon and Giff, founded Starbucks Starbucks in Seattle, USA. They only sold heavy-baked coffee brewed by using pressure pots, not drinks and desserts, and soon became popular all over the United States. The emergence of Starbucks changed the situation of instant coffee unifying the United States, which had a far-reaching impact at that time.

In 1974, Starbucks marketing manager Howard Schultz bought Starbucks Starbucks and introduced lattes and cappuccinos made from espresso and soft foam. Italian-born espresso has been pushed onto the world coffee stage in the United States on the other side of the ocean. Starbucks is growing rapidly all over the world.

After the 2008 financial tsunami, Starbucks Starbucks launched the low-cost VIA instant coffee in order to seize the shrinking market. The stock price rose and the store was alive, but fans was somewhat disappointed.

Some people are proud that they drink a cup of Starbucks coffee every day and think they know a lot about coffee, which is very trendy and fashionable. Just talk about lattes, cappuccinos, mochas, or caramel macchiato. In fact, people who know coffee will inevitably despise it when they listen to it. Whether it is a latte or a cappuccino, it is a "coffee drink" mixed with milk and coffee.

Starbucks Starbucks can only drink espresso (espresso) and its fancy coffee with milk. As the saying goes: Italians are very "impetuous". They dislike that the general method of making coffee is very slow and inefficient, so they invented an Italian coffee machine that can be extracted quickly in 20-30 seconds. Hot water passes quickly through coffee powder under certain pressure. A strong cup of coffee is made. Espresso is strong, bitter and thick before adding milk. With enough milk (milk foam), such as lattes, the curry is still fragrant. This is the beauty of coffee conversion. Starbucks used it perfectly. The popular categories of coffee on the market: latte, cappuccino, mocha, Ole, etc., are actually espresso and its derivatives, which is the result of Starbucks guidance and the result it hopes for, but he is actually wrong. This is just the classification of espresso, not coffee.

Espresso (Starbucks) is not equal to coffee, it is just a kind of coffee, more accurately, it is a way of making coffee.

In terms of individual coffee: different continents, different elevations and different climates produce different coffee beans, they have their own beautiful names and taste, elegant and noble Blue Mountain coffee from Jamaica, sweet and mellow Mantenin from Indonesia, fine balanced cream rich Syrador Brazil, sweet and lively Kona from Hawaii.

In terms of production methods: they can also be made with siphon pots, French presses, hand flushing pots, Belgian pots, Vietnamese pots, American trickling pots and Italian coffee machines, showing different tastes and features.

The siphon pot is as accurate as an instrument, coffee beans and water are fully mixed in the cooking process, and it can perfectly filter the coffee grounds to make the coffee extract more fully. This is the most commonly used instrument for making black coffee in cafes, and it tastes good when mastered properly.

The Belgian pot belongs to the same family as the siphon pot, which uses steam to compress the gas and let it run back and forth to mix the coffee to form a beautiful taste, but the Belgian pot is very royal and has more ornamental value.

Hand brewing pot is a common method of fine coffee, the temperature of about 90 degrees, it is not easy to destroy the original flavor of coffee, the level is more rich, is the favorite of coffee enthusiasts. However, the hand-made pot seems simple, but in fact, the requirements of baristas are very high, not only to have skilled techniques, but also to understand the different baking characteristics of different beans, which is not elementary and manageable.

French pots and Vietnamese pots are good partners for beginners, easy to get, and taste good, but there is a gap with professional siphon pots and hand flushing pots. Mocha pots and espresso machines are both tools for making espresso, and they both need to increase atmospheric pressure to increase consistency.

In this respect, the espresso machine performs better. On the other hand, all kinds of American drip filter pots for household use are the "stupid version" of hand-brewed coffee, and the household automatic coffee machine is the "simplified version" of Italian coffee machine.
