What is the best coffee? Selecting and preparing coffee

1.jpg

As the great movie actor put it beautifully: The best drink is coffee. The best coffee is espresso. The best espresso is a double espresso. (Robert DeNiro). And this is the best saying about coffee. Truth?

As Napoleon Bonaparte, a big coffee lover, said: I would rather suffer, but with coffee, than not feel, nothing at all. These are the true words of a person that well reflect the love for such a divine drink as coffee.

Nice saying. I sit, drink coffee, analyze. Autumn is in the cup, winter is in the plans, spring is in the body, but in the soul, as always, there was not enough summer. (Rinat Valiullin. The book "Solo on one key")

How beautifully it is said - When the weather is bad and you don't want to go out, then a cup of coffee is just happiness... and you can drink this happiness! (Tatiana Simona. Poems "A Cup of Coffee").

Never put in coffee - your unnecessary memories, bad thoughts and fuss. It is better to add more joy, fun, pleasure and delight to coffee, which will then lead to the happiness that any of us seeks every day.

Even better is said by the writer of our time: It smelled like freshly ground grains - the aroma separating day from night ... (Haruki Murakami "Colorless Tskuru Tazaki and the years of his wanderings").

Wow! There are things worth being faithful to. For example, coffee. (John Galsworthy). How do you drink coffee? We ourselves drink it as black as night and sweet as sin. (Neil Gaiman "American Gods").

Here is the music! For inspiration, I only need an open piano, silence and a cup of coffee. From the smell will be born music, silence will allow you to hear it, and the piano will bring it to life. (Johann Strauss)

And then I have only one question - Is there any drink in our world -
Better, tastier, loved by all of us and more aromatic than coffee?
I'm not talking about tea, because this is a completely different drink.

And this is what another great man said about coffee, which he loved to drink in the mornings and evenings. "Coffee is a very personal drink. Like cognac, you cannot drink it in mugs!" (Winston Churchill).

Also a pretty very good saying about coffee. "Sometimes life is solely a matter of having a cup of coffee, as well as the privacy it provides." (Richard Brautigan "Trout Fishing in America"). Well said? Say yes.

Coffee? Is the silent fiction of the rainbow. This is the gateway to the perception of the night landscape. It is a light that can be stirred with a spoon. This is a jazz record jam. (Writer Max Fry. "Coffee Book"). Max Fry is the literary pseudonym of first two writers, Svetlana Martynchik and Igor Stepin, later Svetlana Martynchik wrote on her own.

WHICH COFFEE IS BETTER? SELECTING AND MAKING COFFEE.

Natural coffee from beans. Arabica or Robusta

We can say that these two coffees have gained great popularity in countries around the world. The most widespread variety is Arabica (and in Russia too). Gourmets, like coffee lovers around the world, appreciate Arabica for its moderate caffeine content, but this does not apply to coffee drinks (Latte, Cappuccino, Espresso, Americano and even Mocco). Robusta is considered the second most popular variety. This variety contains a large amount of caffeine, which gives it an increased strength and increased invigorating effect. Robusta is often added to coffee blends from other varieties to increase their strength. To determine which coffee beans to buy, just choose the one you like. If you appreciate softer and more delicate aromatic varieties, choose Arabica, and if the strength and richness of coffee is important, you should buy any kind of Robusta and try the variety.

How to properly prepare coffee beans at home

Brewing delicious and aromatic coffee from ground beans is not difficult. You can buy coffee beans and grind them before brewing. Or you can buy ground coffee in vacuum packaging, which is sold in many supermarkets, shops and even in cafes. Both hand grinders and mechanical coffee grinders can be used to grind coffee beans. And also the grains can be ground in a blender, but the grinding will be coarser in it. The finer the grinding of coffee beans, the better it conveys its taste. A more traditional way of making (brewing) coffee is used, of course, in the Turk. But today there are many all kinds of coffee machines, where coffee drinks are massively prepared, which are also very popular in many countries of the world. But most of all these coffee drinks with milk or cream are loved in Italy. Everything else is a matter of taste for every coffee lover. These are my thoughts about coffee.

And a little about coffee or what true love and passion are

Coffee is when real black coffee, natural coffee made from beans, and not a coffee drink like Espresso, Cappuccino, Latte, Americano and Mocha. And real coffee is when you make it yourself (brew it in a Turk) at home in the morning or in the evening after work. And this divine drink does not need special additives, except for salt, cinnamon and lemon. But for fans, you can also add nutmeg, although I myself do not like it. But I know people who always do this. And now about true love, where coffee puts everything in its place. This is the tradition without which you can no longer live, work and be creative. Coffee is not even a tradition or love, it is much more and higher - it is a real and not passing passion. A passion that has no boundaries, it is found in every country in the world. Passion that gives us an understanding of a certain mystery, magic, happiness, beauty, luxury and nobility.
