Coffee beans brewed directly: delicious and easy to enjoy
Coffee is a must-have drink for many people every morning. It can refresh the mind and bring vitality to people for the whole day. For coffee lovers, how to make a delicious cup of coffee has become an important issue. Traditionally, we usually use drip or capsule machines to brew coffee. However, there is a new trend now emerging - brewing directly with coffee beans. This method is simple and convenient, and can retain more original flavor and aroma.
1. Choose the right coffee beans
First of all, you need to choose the right coffee beans before you start. Coffee beans produced in different regions have different tastes and flavors. If you like a strong and bitter taste, you can choose deeply roasted beans from Brazil or Colombia; if you like a refreshing and fruity aroma, you can choose medium roasted beans from Ethiopia or Kenya.
2. Grind the coffee beans
Next, you need to grind the coffee beans to a suitable size for brewing. For direct brewing, it is recommended to choose a medium to slightly coarse grind. If you like a strong taste, you can choose a slightly finer grind; if you like a refreshing taste, you can choose a slightly coarser grind.
3. Prepare the filter and kettle
Before you start brewing, make sure you have a filter and a kettle ready. The filter will help remove the coffee grounds and sediment, making the final coffee cleaner and smoother. The kettle will heat the water.
4. Brewing steps
Step 1: Place an appropriate amount of coffee beans into the filter.
Step 2: Pour boiling water into the kettle and wait for it to drop to about 90°C (do not use boiling water).
Step 3: Pour boiling water slowly and evenly to fully soak the coffee beans.
Step 4: Wait for about 3-4 minutes to allow the coffee to be fully extracted.
Step 5: Slowly pour the brewed coffee into the cup.
5. Taste and adjust
The last step is to taste and adjust. According to your personal taste, you can add the right amount of sugar or milk to adjust the sweetness and taste of the coffee. If you like a strong taste, you can choose a small amount of sugar or no sugar; if you like a light taste, you can choose the right amount of milk or sugar.
Summarize
By brewing directly from the coffee beans, we can better preserve the original flavor and aroma. This method is simple and convenient, and allows us to easily enjoy delicious coffee at home. Just choose the right coffee beans, grind size, prepare the filter and kettle, and follow the correct brewing steps to make a satisfying cup of delicious coffee.
