The little tricks of American coffee machines. Don’t buy a coffee machine without these three points

When brewing coffee at home, more and more people choose to use a coffee machine, one because it is convenient, and the other because it is easy to use.

There is another reason, which is that the price of coffee machines is not very high. Xiaolu did some online research some time ago. Now the price of American coffee machines is more than 100 yuan, and you can buy a medium-sized one for 400 yuan or 500 yuan. Therefore, many people Xiaolu met prepared a coffee machine for themselves at home.

The coffee machine may seem simple, but there are many tricks involved.

First of all, different types of coffee machines require different precautions when brewing coffee. So when buying a coffee machine, you can ask the store whether you can try it out , or ask if you can get a simple tutorial. If you can't try it out and you bought it online, you can ask if there are any video materials or documents for learning.

Secondly, generally speaking, when brewing coffee with a coffee machine, the water temperature is usually too high. This is because the coffee machine has no way to control the way the hot water is injected . At this time, we can only control the flavor of the coffee by using coffee beans, coffee powder, and coffee grinding. If you think the coffee you brew tastes a bit too strong, you can try coffee with a lower roasting degree, or coffee powder with larger particles, or you can reduce the amount of coffee powder appropriately.

Another point is the use of the keep warm function of the coffee machine . Many people will turn on the keep warm function by default when using the coffee machine. Many people think this function is very convenient. Because even if it is left for a while, you can still taste the steaming hot coffee. But if you value the taste of coffee, we recommend that you cancel the keep warm function. Because long-term heat preservation will cause changes in the composition of coffee. For example, compared with the coffee that has not been kept warm for 10 minutes, you can easily notice that the coffee is more bitter, more sour, or has a lighter aroma.

In addition to the above three points, there are many other tips for using a coffee machine, such as controlling the amount of water, etc. However, these can be learned through the information provided by the merchant to avoid problems.
