You made coffee the wrong way throughout your life

There are many ways for us to enjoy the taste of life, including ... cup of coffee early in the morning, because we make it ourselves.

We thought that making coffee was simple. Just add two, three teaspoons to the filter, then boil the water and finish. But scientists do not think so simple.

There are many ways for us to enjoy the taste of life, including . cup of coffee early in the morning, because we make it ourselves. Simple is not it? Just add two, three teaspoons to the filter, then boil the water and finish.

Making coffee, it is easy to think but not easy.

But for scientists who are always interested in everything in life, it is not so. Because in brewing coffee, the boiling temperature of water is extremely important and if we don't know it, we have made coffee the wrong way throughout our lives.

In the study, scientists invited seven special experts from the University of Kansas Center for Consumer Sensory and Behavior Analysis, who specialize in tasting, analyzing and judging to make conclusions about a true cup of coffee. These experts analyzed up to 36 flavor attributes on hot coffee samples with different temperatures and types of coffee beans.

And the conclusions that these experts come up with are the temperature of boiling water . It is the boiling temperature of the water that will create or spoil a cup of coffee. Specifically, if you prefer Arabica coffee, the most appropriate temperature is 70 o C, with Robusta coffee, the temperature may be a little lower. In general, coffee made at a temperature of 60 or maybe 50 ° C will give the most rich and intense flavor , but absolutely never make coffee with boiling water of 100 ° C.

Dr. Christopher Hendon, of the University of Oregon (USA), though not involved in the study, said that the higher the temperature, the more likely it is to reduce the delicious compounds of coffee. And also, too high temperatures will give people some unwanted compounds.

The higher the temperature, the less the delicious compounds of coffee are reduced.

It seems that 70 ° C (or 60 ° C depending on the type of coffee) is the temperature needed to achieve a perfect equilibrium to maximize good coffee compounds and minimize unwanted compounds. want. Also, at this temperature, coffee is ready to drink because it is more prone to burn tongue if it is hotter than 70oC. However, it is not over yet, because there are many more factors to help bring us a delicious cup of coffee such as fine or fine grind, quality of coffee beans, coffee / water ratio, and quality of water. .

And lastly, a good cup of coffee depends on hot or cold drink, drink with sugar or with milk. However, no matter how you drink it, scientific studies have shown that moderation of coffee helps reduce the risk of atrial fibrillation, some skin cancers, type 2 diabetes, and even brings re-life for life.
