Coffee is a feeling.

Coffee is a feeling.

I like to drink coffee, and I like to sit in a cafe when I want to think about something or don't want to do anything. I don't know whether I like the faint bitter taste of coffee or the slightly charred taste of coffee beans in the air of the cafe.

In fact, for those who like or love coffee, Beijing is a little confused. Coffee is romantic, elegant, educated and in a mood, so the cafe should be small, quiet, warm and whispering. There are some such places to drink coffee in Beijing, but there are not many, and it is not very convenient when you want to find coffee. More Beijing cafes are camped either at the entrance of 5A office buildings or in a corner of luxury shopping malls. It is much easier to find coffee in Shanghai than in Beijing. when you want coffee, you can walk to Huating Road, Huashan Road, Maoming South Road or any quiet road lined with mature women's tall French sycamore trees on both sides of your walkway. Just the beautiful names of the roadside cafes and the different and tasteful facades of the families will make you think that the coffee inside must taste good. Compared with Beijing, Shanghai has a longer history of coffee, a deeper culture, and a better mass base of coffee in Shanghai, so in the past two years, several books on European coffee culture have been published in China, all written by Shanghainese, for example, Zhang Yao's Coffee Map, Open the door of the Coffee Shop, and Chen Danyan's whether Coffee is bitter or not.

If you are a person who likes to look for the feeling of coffee and has not been to Europe, then it will be a pity. Although people all over the world drink coffee, only Europeans take coffee to the extreme, both in terms of culture and processing. In Europe, whether in big cities with culture and history such as Paris, Milan and Brussels, or in small cities like Nice and Padua, there are cafes on almost every street and on every corner, as long as you have a heart. You can smell the strong smell of coffee almost every moment. For them, coffee is life and air, like butter, bread and mineral water. In real European cafes (not hamburgers, pizzeria, McDonald's), guests never say "have a cup of coffee", but name the coffee. It is said that in Vienna, which is famous for its milk coffee, waiters in famous cafes carry 20 different color codes of coffee, from light to dark. The color of the coffee served here is exactly the same as the color on the color scale you ordered. People who like coffee need to understand the words about coffee in English, French, German and Dutch before going to Europe. Because if you don't know anything about these words, you really don't know what to do when you walk into the big supermarkets in Europe and face the coffee with all kinds of color packages and captions on the shelves. Whether you choose coarsegrind, mediumgrind, finegrind, fine distillation and powder grinding has a lot to do with the way you brew coffee when you buy it home. Whether you buy coffee after dinner (Af?terDinner), decaffeinated coffee (Decaffeinated), or Italian espresso (Espresso) depends on your hobby. You know, Paulig in Finland and DonweEgberts in the Netherlands are good brands of coffee.

Of the hundreds or more ways of making coffee in the world, none can be called the best. Everyone has his or her own preference. Sometimes coffee is not so much a drink as a feeling.
