The easy way to make strong coffee from coffee beans

Coffee is a must-have drink for many people every morning. It not only refreshes the mind, but also has a rich aroma and unique taste. To make a cup of fragrant coffee, the key is to choose high-quality coffee beans and use the appropriate brewing method.

First of all, choosing high-quality coffee beans is the basis for making fragrant coffee. There are a variety of coffee beans with different origins and flavor characteristics available on the market. If you like a strong, bitter taste, you can choose beans with a higher degree of dark roasting or Italian roasting; if you prefer a softer, aromatic taste, you can try beans with a lower degree of medium or light roasting. No matter which type you choose, make sure to buy fresh and store it well (it is best to store it in a sealed container) to maintain its original flavor.

Secondly, you need to pay attention to the proper use of water temperature and time control during the production process. Generally speaking, heating water to between 90°C-96°C is the ideal temperature range. Too low water temperature will lead to insufficient coffee extraction and a lighter taste; while too high water temperature will easily destroy the aroma components in the coffee beans, making the coffee taste bitter. In addition, the brewing time must also be controlled within an appropriate range. Usually, 4-5 minutes is a more appropriate time period.

Finally, you can try some tips during the brewing process to increase the aroma and taste of coffee. For example, preheat the water with a small amount of boiling water before pouring it into the pot to avoid the impact of sudden temperature changes on the quality of the coffee; in addition, you can gently stir it when soaking or brewing to promote better contact and dissolution of coffee and water.

In short, to brew a fragrant and delicious coffee, you don’t need complicated equipment and operation steps. You just need to choose high-quality beans, master the appropriate temperature and time, and try some tips to improve the taste. I hope the above simple methods can help friends who love coffee.
