Requirements for Americano coffee:

1. Water temperature

To obtain the best refining effect, The water temperature in your coffee pot should be maintained at 90 to 96 degrees Celsius. If the temperature is too low, the coffee will not be refined enough, and the coffee will be bland and tasteless. If the temperature is too high, the taste will be poor. If you're brewing coffee by hand, let the water boil, but don't boil it too much. Turn off the heat and let the water cool for one minute before brewing the coffee.

2. Enjoy the brewed coffee immediately

Pour the coffee into a warmed mug or coffee cup to keep the temperature as long as possible. Brewed coffee will immediately begin to lose its best flavor, so only brew as much as you will use. Never leave the coffee on the electric stove for more than 15 minutes, otherwise it will taste burnt. If the coffee is not brewed and used immediately, it should be poured into a warm, insulated thermos and consumed within 45 minutes.

3. Never reheat coffee

A well-prepared cup of coffee should be savored as carefully as the process of preparing it. Take a moment to smell its aroma. Take a small sip and notice the flavor of the coffee.
