Analysis:
First of all, we need to introduce what "brewed" coffee is. Boil - Put something in water and bring the water to a boil. But the "cooking" of making coffee is a process of "washing" the flavor out of the coffee with 92-96 degree water. So many people will misunderstand this word. If you really put coffee into water to "boil" it, the drink you get will no longer be a cup of coffee, but a cup of bitter water with a burnt taste (because the temperature of the water has reached above 96 degrees at this time), 96 degrees The above temperature can destroy the oil in the coffee, making the taste spicy and astringent.
1. Brewing coffee has precise requirements for water temperature, that is, the water temperature should be 92 to 96 degrees. If the water temperature is too high, the brewed coffee will be a cup of bitter water with a burnt taste, because above 96 degrees The temperature can destroy the oil in the coffee, making the taste bitter and astringent.
2. When using different coffee pots to brew coffee, you need to use different thicknesses of coffee powder. For example, a mocha coffee pot requires finer coffee powder.
3. The quality of the water used to brew coffee is very important. Even a small amount of chlorine, iron or other mineral impurities will affect the purity of the coffee. It’s best to brew coffee with filtered water or cold water that has been standing for a while.
4. Coffee should be consumed within 30 minutes after brewing. Coffee left for too long will become bitter.
There are several points to note when making coffee at home:
1. The fineness of the coffee grind is determined by the coffee machine you choose. Because different coffee making methods require different grinding thicknesses
2. Use 92-96 degree water.
3. Different preparation methods require different cooking times
