The magic of coffee beans: from beans to aromatic coffee!

Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world, and coffee beans are the key to making a delicious cup of coffee. From beans to coffee, a series of processes and magic go through in between.

First, it's important to choose the right coffee beans. There are many types of coffee beans in the world, each with its own unique flavor and characteristics. The two most common are Arabica and Robusta. Arabica beans have a higher quality and more complex, aromatic taste; while Robusta is stronger and more bitter but contains more caffeine. Decide which type to use based on your taste preferences and the amount you need.

Next comes the roasting process, which is also considered to be one of the indispensable steps in making high-quality and fragrant coffee. During the roasting process, the internal chemical composition of the original green beans is changed by controlling the temperature and time, giving them a special flavor and color. Light roasting produces some fruity sweet flavors, medium roasting produces rich acidity and balance, and deep roasting brings a strong bitterness and cocoa flavor. Everyone has different preferences for the taste of coffee, so the degree of roasting varies from person to person.

The last step is brewing. Add the ground coffee powder to the filter paper or metal filter and add the appropriate amount of warm water. During this process, the water comes into contact with the coffee powder, so that the chemicals contained in it are released and dissolved in the water to form a fragrant and delicious coffee liquid. The brewing time, water temperature and ratio will affect the final taste and flavor of the coffee.

From beans to coffee, every step requires a certain level of magic to create a satisfying, delicious cup. Choosing the right type of beans, mastering the correct roasting techniques, and brewing them properly are all key elements. Whether you like a light or strong taste, as long as you master these techniques, you can easily enjoy a cup of fragrant coffee at home.
