Don’t Sacrifice Flavor for Convenience in Your Home Brew Coffee
Daniel Higgins of Stevens Point Journal discusses how we can turn our home coffee into a more flavorsome experience rather than just a convenient one. See my summary of the article underneath.
- Coffee beans are like any other fruit; they only have a certain shelf life period so buy for quality and drink within 4 – 6 weeks of the beans being roasted
- Filter your water to improve flavor and remove unwanted chemicals which can alter the taste
- Ideal water brewing temperatures are between 90 to 95 degrees C; check out your home machine to see if it hits these capabilities
- It’s all about the quality of your grinder too; a good coffee grinder will make a notable difference to the taste
