Coffee beans turn into black coffee: the secret of how it’s made!

Coffee is one of the most popular drinks in the world, and black coffee is the most classic one. It is made from coffee beans, ground and brewed. Here is how to make black coffee.

First of all, it is very important to choose high-quality coffee beans. High-quality coffee beans usually have a strong aroma and taste. You can choose coffee beans from single or mixed origins with different flavor characteristics from all over the world to try different flavors. Of course, you can also choose coffee beans that suit your taste preferences and strength according to your personal preferences.

Secondly, correct grinding is one of the essential steps to making delicious black coffee. It is important to adjust the grinding degree according to the brewing method and personal preference. For drip brewing methods (such as drip pots), medium-fine grinding is more suitable; while for devices such as French presses or espresso machines, finer and more uniform powders are required to extract richer coffee.

Finally, the brewing process is also key. Put the ground coffee powder into a filter paper or metal filter, and then pour in an appropriate amount of hot water. Adjust the water temperature and brewing time according to your personal taste and preference. Generally speaking, the water temperature should be between 90°C and 96°C, and the brewing time should be about 3 to 5 minutes. If you like a strong black coffee, you can extend the brewing time; if you prefer a light taste, you can shorten the brewing time.

In summary, making delicious black coffee requires choosing high-quality coffee beans, grinding correctly, and adjusting brewing parameters reasonably. Through continuous trial and error, you will find your favorite black coffee flavor and enjoy the pleasant experience every morning or afternoon tea time.
