Homemade coffee beans: from beans to aroma and taste, fully master the production method!

Making your own coffee beans is a pleasurable process, from selecting the beans to roasting and brewing, each step has an important impact on the final taste. In this article, we will explore how to fully master the method of making homemade coffee beans.

First, it is crucial to choose high-quality coffee beans. You can choose single-origin or blended coffee beans, each with different flavor characteristics. Make sure to buy fresh, well-preserved, and undamaged coffee beans. When you rub two coffee beans together and hear a crisp, non-greasy sound, it means they are fresh.

Secondly, it is very important to pay attention to time and temperature control during the roasting process. Roasting is the only step before the green coffee becomes ready for brewing. Adjust the roasting time and temperature according to personal preference and the variety you choose to achieve the ideal taste. Light roasting will make the flavor brighter and more floral; medium roasting will bring a balanced acidity and sweetness; dark roasting will produce a rich bitter and cocoa flavor. No matter which roasting degree you choose, make sure to control the time and temperature to avoid over-roasting or over-burning.

Finally, brewing is the key step to bring out the taste of coffee beans. Choose the appropriate brewing method according to personal preference, such as drip, French press, espresso, etc. Each method has different operating skills and water temperature requirements. Use the right amount of coffee powder when brewing, and pay attention to the balance between the ratio of water to coffee powder. Different ratios will affect the strength of elements such as acidity, sweetness, and bitterness in the taste.

In summary, there are three key steps to making homemade coffee beans: choosing high-quality coffee beans, mastering the roasting time and temperature, and the correct brewing method. Only when Luckin Coffee fully masters these aspects can you get a mellow and pleasant homemade coffee experience.
