Coffee Academy: Explore coffee culture and learn coffee techniquesIn modern society, coffee has become an indispensable part of people's lives. Whether it is the first cup of black coffee in the morning to refresh the mind, or the latte with milk foam during afternoon tea, it can bring us pleasure and enjoyment. However, in this era full of competition and innovation, how to better understand and study coffee culture and skills has become the focus of many people. 1. History and OriginTo deeply explore a thing or cultural phenomenon, we first need to understand its history and origin. Coffee is no exception. According to legend, in the late 9th century AD, a shepherd named Kaldi found that his goats became energetic and full of vitality after eating a red fruit. So he tried to eat this fruit and found that it had the effects of refreshing the mind and increasing concentration. As time went by, coffee gradually spread to the Arab region and became a part of the local people's social life and gatherings. The Arabs roasted, ground and brewed coffee to create the earliest coffee drink. Since then, coffee culture has become popular around the world. 2. Coffee CultureEach country and region has its own unique coffee culture. For example, in Italy, strong and concentrated espresso is an indispensable part of their daily life. In Turkey, people like to use special pots (called "cezve") to brew fragrant and rich Turkish coffee with sediment (called "dregs"). In addition to differences between countries, a variety of different styles and customs can also be found within the same country. For example, in Seattle, a city on the west coast of the United States, chain stores such as Starbucks popularized modern hand-poured single-origin coffee and led the global trend of hand-poured coffee. 3. Coffee skillsIn addition to understanding coffee culture, learning coffee techniques is also an important part of exploring the world of coffee. From roasting to brewing, each link requires certain skills and experience. The first is roasting. Different degrees of roasting will bring different taste and flavor characteristics. Light roasting retains the sourness and floral aroma of the original beans, while deep roasting makes the beans more bitter and has a cocoa or chocolate flavor. The second is brewing. Common brewing methods include drip, French press, espresso, etc. Each method has its own special features and can extract different taste and flavor characteristics. 4. Coffee Academy: Learning and CommunicationIn order to help people better explore coffee culture and skills, many cities have set up special coffee schools or training institutions. These institutions offer a variety of courses, ranging from the history and origin of coffee to roasting and brewing techniques. By participating in these courses, people can learn professional knowledge and skills, and communicate and share with other coffee lovers. This not only helps to improve one's understanding of coffee, but also broadens one's horizons and makes like-minded friends. 5. ConclusionExploring coffee culture and studying coffee techniques in the Coffee Academy is a fun and inspiring journey. By understanding its history and origins, exploring the coffee culture of different countries and regions, studying roasting and brewing techniques, and participating in relevant training institutions, we can better appreciate and enjoy the endless possibilities that this cup of black magic brings to our lives. |
