 7 tips for making great iced coffee





Summer is finally here and most days are too warm for a hot cup of Java juice. Here are some tips to help you create great iced coffee.


1. Start with fresh coffee beans. This great iced coffee was never made with old beans, so avoid buying your beans at a discount. If you don't drink iced coffee often, consider purchasing freshly brewed beans from the coffee shop as you can buy just as much as you need for the occasion.


2. Test the taste. Hot coffee tastes different from cold coffee. To get a cool idea of ​​how your coffee tastes, let the hot cup cool to room temperature. This little test will help you determine your ideal tastes.


3. Use fresh ice. Snow tends to be old if it has been unused in the freezer for a long time. If you're wondering if ice helps harm your iced coffee, it's easy to test: let some of the cubes melt and reach room temperature, then taste the resulting water. If it is from the water you want to drink from the glass then you are in good shape. If not, throw out the old snow and keep it fresh. If it still tastes old, buy a bag of ice, the cost is well worth the flavor increase.


4. Soak it vigorously. Boil your coffee on the strong side as the ice will weaken it. To prevent your drink from diluting, try turning the remaining coffee into ice cubes. Use them in place of regular ice cubes to keep your drink cool.


5. Try a cold drink. Some people object to the acidity in cold coffee. Cold brewing significantly reduces the acidic content of the coffee (with the same coffee you will lower the pH by one full pH versus the hot brew). Put 3/4 cup of ground coffee in a mason jar, fill it with water and stir. Cover and put in the refrigerator for 12 hours. Strain the resulting center through a coffee filter to remove ground. Add water to taste when you are ready to drink. You can even heat the reconstituted drink for a fast, low-acid cup of hot coffee.


6. Saving leftover coffee for iced drinks is often fine, but don't be tempted to use the dregs of a burnt pot. If it doesn't taste good spicy, it definitely won't taste cold.


7. Adding fruits like strawberries, oranges, blueberries, or even cherries, and spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, or cardamom are a great way to spice up your drink and your day. The important thing is to enjoy it! Try a lot of new things. Change your regular routine. The worst that can happen is that you will not love him. You can always try something else!


If you have a short time and don't have a stock of recycled coffee, try this recipe with instant coffee.

What are the different types of coffee beans?

  What are the different types of coffee beans? There are about 25 major species within the Genus “ Coffea ” but only three (3) are cultivated for commercial coffee consumption. These are; Coffea Arabica  ( Arabica ), pronounced either a-rã-bik-a or ar-a-bë-ka. This species makes up about 70% of the world market for coffee beans. Being a higher value taste, this fancy grade coffee bean is sold mostly through specialty coffee shops. Arabica being grown on steep terrain makes mechanical harvesting impossible. The hand picking ensures a better quality of selection with less under/overripe beans being selected. Coffea canephora  (referred to as  Robusta ) This high caffeine content species makes up about 27% of the world coffee bean market. Being cheaper to produce coffee beans but with a lower taste profile, this coffee is often sold for use in instant coffee. It is produced primarily in Indonesia, West Africa, Brazil, and Vietnam. Also known by botanists as  Coffea bukobensis A. Zimm. ,

How does espresso become golden brown, not black ?!

I found the answer Scott Danzig, Learned all about the specialty coffee industry when considering opening a coffee house. When espresso “settles down”, it should be fairly black. When properly brewed, you’d have the oils from the beans forming little bubbles that are generously mixed into your espresso shot. If you go for a double or triple shot, you’d likely have more black, settled liquid at the bottom, but you probably should have more golden-brown, bubbly liquid than what you’re describing. This is likely because your coffee is not offering enough resistance to the water that flows through it. Possible causes: You didn’t “tamp” your coffee properly You need to use a coffee tamper and apply 30 pounds of pressure. I’d call it a firm but not strenuous shove onto the grounds. Generally, you twist the tamper a bit before removing it to smooth out the surface. The tamper should be pushed down a level, not to one side or the other, so water is resisted equally throughout. Some tamper actu
