You can only drink the bitterness of coffee?

You say you love coffee, you say you drink several cups of coffee every day. Maybe one day you will find that the taste of coffee and coffee is different. But through training, we can also taste the differences in the taste of coffee processed with different roasting degrees, different producing areas and different processing processes.

Through training, we can also identify the subtle taste differences between different kinds of coffee, and the coffee gentleman feels that this is also very important to improve the coffee experience. So today, Coffee is here to share with you how to train.

In the coffee comparison test, we usually taste two or more varieties of coffee at the same time, which is extremely important for training sensory accuracy. If you always taste one kind of coffee, your understanding of the taste of coffee will be incomplete and sometimes biased.

How to train your tongue?

The process of training your tongue is not complicated. You only need enough patience and as many varieties of coffee as possible to improve your taste. Here are the simple steps to train your tongue:

① buys coffee

Go to a nearby roaster or coffee shop to buy two different kinds of coffee. When buying, ask the roaster or coffee shop owner for information about coffee, and the information they provide will be of great help to your senses.

② small cup of French coffee

Buy two small pressure pots and make just enough for your taste.

③ brewing coffee

Use two pressure pots to make two kinds of coffee. Using a small pressure pot can minimize the waste of coffee.

④ cools slightly

Although we all like hot coffee, it's best to cool the coffee a little while training our senses, so that the taste of the coffee can be more easily recognized.

⑤ repeated comparison

The two cups of coffee are ready. Now please inhale the coffee, taste it carefully, and compare the taste difference between the two cups of coffee over and over again. Take a few seconds before tasting another cup of coffee. Don't let the taste of the last cup affect your perception of the taste of another cup of coffee.

⑥ thinks about the taste.

Before you start to identify the taste, first distinguish the taste of two cups of coffee, which one is thicker? Which one is purer? Record the taste you feel so that you can better distinguish the characteristics of the two cups of coffee later.

⑦ doesn't have to worry too much about taste.

Although your goal is to train how to identify taste, but since it is only in its infancy, if you encounter an indescribable taste, you don't have to struggle too much. you just need to record the taste you taste, and then summarize and analyze it later. with the deepening of the training, one day you will taste more flavor!

⑧ reference tag

To make it clear here, don't look at the label before the training begins! You need to train your tongue based on your own feelings, rather than following the advice given by others. But at the end of the training, you need to refer to the label to determine whether your description of taste, taste and mellow thickness is accurate, which will not only help you accumulate more professional vocabulary, but also improve the accuracy of your senses.

So, how often should we train?

It is recommended to train as much as possible. Training is a process that accumulates slowly and cannot be achieved overnight, so frequent training will make your tongue more sensitive and your taste more accurate, and after mastering certain skills, the process of tasting will become very interesting.

Other considerations

① check the nose.

You know, our sense of smell and taste are actually the same. For example, if you have a stuffy nose when you have a cold, you can't taste anything. This is because a cold clogs the nasal passages and makes it difficult for the nose to perceive aroma, so check whether your nose is ventilated before tasting.

② quit smoking

Cigarettes can greatly affect the sensitivity of the tongue and other senses. But don't worry too much, even if you've been smoking for a long time, quitting smoking will restore your senses to their original level. If you want to taste the subtle taste characteristics of coffee, you'd better choose to quit smoking.
