Coffee bean brewing skills, let you taste the mellow and delicious coffee

Coffee Bean Selection

To brew a delicious coffee, you first need to choose high-quality coffee beans. There are various coffee beans from different origins and varieties on the market, such as Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, etc. Each origin and variety has its own unique flavor characteristics, so you can choose according to your taste preferences.

Grinding coffee beans

In order to ensure the best tasting coffee, we need freshly ground coffee powder. Freshness is one of the important factors affecting the taste of coffee, so it is recommended to buy whole unprocessed or packaged coffee beans with high integrity and grind them on site before use.

Water quality and temperature

Water quality is crucial to brewing a delicious and mellow coffee. Pure, impurity-free and rich in oxygen are ideal water quality conditions. At the same time, it is also important to control the appropriate temperature during the brewing process. Generally speaking, the water temperature should be controlled at around 90°C. Too high a temperature will make the coffee bitter, while too low a temperature will not fully extract the aroma of the coffee.

Brewing ratio and time

When brewing coffee, you need to control the ratio of coffee powder to water. Generally speaking, you need to use about 250 ml of water for every 15 grams of coffee powder. In addition, brewing time is also an important factor affecting the taste. For common brewing methods such as drip and French press, it is generally recommended to control it to about 3-4 minutes.

Pouring skills

The pouring technique is one of the key factors that affect the uniformity of coffee flavor and extraction effect. When pouring, you can use methods such as rotation and pumping to evenly wet all the coffee powder with hot water, and ensure that it is fully stirred to promote the extraction process.

Storage and preservation

To maintain freshness and quality, grind and brew whole, unprocessed or packaged coffee beans as soon as possible after purchase. The remaining coffee powder can be stored in a sealed container to avoid exposure to air. In addition, coffee beans can also be refrigerated, but care should be taken to avoid odors with other foods.

Taste and enjoy

Finally, pour the brewed coffee into the cup and stir it gently with a spoon to mix it evenly before tasting it. Then smell the aroma of the coffee with your nose, take a small sip, and let it stay in your mouth for a while to feel its rich taste and mouthfeel.

With the above tips and precautions, I believe you can brew delicious coffee and enjoy the wonderful experience of every cup.
