Let’s turn your kitchen into a true coffee shop!
6 techniques for making coffee with cafeteria flavor
1. Choose quality grains
The first step is to invest in 100% arabic grains, preferably from medium to dark toast.
These grains offer sweeter and less bitter notes, providing a more drink. Avoid cafes with a very dark roasting as they may have unwanted flavors such as excessive bitterness.
2. Attention to grinding
Correct grinding is essential. For methods such as French press, opt for thick grinding; for paper strainer, medium grinding; and for espresso, thin grinding. The proper consistency ensures uniform and tasty extraction.
3. Water temperature control
The water should be between 90 ° C and 96 ° C. Boiling water can burn coffee, while cold water does not properly extract the flavors.
Use filtered water to avoid flavor interference.
4. Ideal proportion
The recommended proportion is 10g of coffee for every 180ml of water. Adjust according to your taste buds, but avoid exaggerations so as not to compromise the balance of the drink.
5. Experience alternative methods
In addition to the traditional colander, explore methods such as French press, Italian coffee maker (Moka) or Aeropress.
Each provides unique drink characteristics, allowing you to discover new flavors and aromas.
6. Finish with creativity
For a special touch, add a pinch of cinnamon, nutmeg or even a small amount of salt to enhance coffee flavors. These details make a difference and bring your drink closer to the experience of a coffee shop.
