We are here you to give some tips and tricks that will give you the perfect cup of brewed coffee your heart desires. This article has all the steps that you need to know about brewing a coffee in the comfort of your own home.
COFFEE BEANS:
We believe that having the perfect aromatic coffee beans is the first most important step to having a delicious cup of coffee. We prefer having coffee beans that you can roast on your own rather than having ground coffee to begin with. Coffee beans have lot more taste and give your coffee a great thick texture, so they always remain a better preference for those who want an authentic cup of coffee.
Apart from having the perfect coffee beans, storing of your coffee is equally important. Coffee is a natural product and has a certain shelf life. Make sure to store your coffee in an air-tight container under room temperature and never to put your coffee beans in the fridge as the cold temperature sucks out the aroma and overall taste.
BREWING EQUIPMENT:
There is a wide range of brewing equipment you can choose from, but you have to keep your ideal flavor profile in mind while choosing the equipment you need. The two most famous brewing equipment are ‘filter/pour over brewing devices’ or ‘immersion brewing devices,’ however there are many other types of brewing devices you can choose from, all depending upon your preference.
SCALE YOUR INGREDIENTS :
To get your prefect cup of coffee, we would recommend you to always scale your ingredients, and that can be done by following a recipe according to the type of coffee you are craving. You can find plenty of recipes online and by following one specific recipe suitable, you can easily maintain the ratio between your coffee and water. If you like your coffee slightly bitter or a little sweet, following a renowned recipe will make you do it the right way.
TIMER:
We can’t put enough emphasis on how important this step is; brewing coffee for a significant amount of time will have a greater impact on your coffee’s taste. If you are following a recipe or just winging it, make sure to always record the time you are brewing your coffee for.
So there you have it- all the tips and tricks you need to keep in mind while brewing your next cup of coffee at home. It might not be the yummiest cup on your first try, but with patience and practice you will master the art of brewing coffee all by yourself in the comfort of your own home.
