Ensure That You Are Using The Finest Home Brew Ingredients

By Douglas Scott


Coffee has become one of the most popular morning beverages worldwide. With mounting data confirming that your daily cup is better for you that any other consumed fluid. With links to lowering your risk of liver disease, cardiovascular disease, diabetes and overall of ensuring you don't die too soon, quality home brew ingredients will prove worth their while.

You all know that the key to good coffee is the base ingredient, the bean. Without the basic raw material, you would have no end result. So don't consider buying the ground mix, always start with the full roasted bean. Decide whether you prefer the Robust flavor, or the musical aroma. This will determine the choice between the Coffee Robust, or the Coffee Arabica. It will also help you decide to take a light, medium or dark roast.

Your end result is totally dependent on the starting ingredients. Beans should be used within 1 month of their roasting date. Don't buy product that has no roasting date on the packaging material. This could be extremely old material.

Another of the biggest misconceptions about making the perfect cup of coffee is the temperature of the water. It should not be boiling. Overheated water will taint the grinds by scorching them, while under heated water will not brew to perfection. The perfect temperature should not be more than 205 degrees.

When your water is at the correct temperature for the coffee making process, ensure that you leave the grinds to infuse correctly, to absorb the water and take the fullness of the flavor into your cup as you pour it. Water that is too hot, will burn your coffee and taint the taste.

Water is vital to the flavor of your final cup, hard water - tap water are known to grab the best compounds in the ground coffee, enhancing the aroma and giving the best overall taste. Those that use distilled water in their brewing process wont experience that rich aroma and flavor; the absence of chemicals in the water does not always mean better coffee.

Boiling your water to exactly the right temperature may seem mundane but if you scorch the beans or the ground coffee as you are over hot water on to them, your flavor will never be the same as if you had let the water go slightly off the boil first. With the addition of the water, comes the perfect brewing process. This is unique to you and your tastes. No one can tell you what is right at this point; everyone has different views and needs from their first cup of the day.

For Vanilla Latte, non dairy, just add a few drops of vanilla extract, if you prefer a coconut flavor, add coconut milk, but mixing the coconut milk with vanilla extract you create a vanilla homemade coffee creamer. There are many other options to create your own perfect blend, taste and texture of coffee but whatever you chose, that first cup will be perfection in liquid form.
